Red five - new F1 resin kit

Hi guys. I just want to share this site i found, about a new F1 resin kit manufacturer in the market.

www.redfive.com.br

Thanks, I've heard of a 1/20 "Red 5 Seat belt" set and was wondering their website was still not functional... But now it seems to be online.

But another F2004? How boring.... :sleeping:
But it includes a REAL WOOD plank and SMS templates.

And the announced Jaguar R5 could be a real stunner!

And, I wonder what a certain former F1 World Champion thinks about the name of that company ;-)

Looks like a nice kit, shame that the "wood" plank on a modern F1 car is not wood.

Yeah, it will be interesting to see that Jag. I've got the S27 R1 and R2, so it'll be nice to add another Cat to my collection.

Man that is good news about the Jag! If the kit looks decent I will pick one of them up for sure. The "plank" on F1 cars used to be made out of a wood fibre laminate called jabrock. Has that changed?

Don't think we need another 1/20 scale Formula One resin kit maker, especially if they are going to do mundane subjects.....unless they are cheap.

True, there is a lot of competition in the sector, especially in Brazil. They have not started well with a boring old Ferrari, but I won't turn down a Webber Jag! You'd think they will have to be competitive price wise to break into the market.

I guess if you have to have a Webber car the Jag isn't so bad but there are so many cool cars that haven't been done in 1/20 like the MTV Simtek car etc.

While I like some of the drivers I'm more focused on the car which will trigger my piggy bank to open more than a driver per se.
