Sorry if this is old news, but has anyone (Accustation? S27? Lion's Roar?) made PE for the Ferrari F430?

I know that Acu-Stion has it listed on thier site with Challenge Stradale decals. I would assume that S27 or Lion Roar would come out with thier own sets.

Sweet! Thanks RR, HLJ didn't even have it listed. And I kind of use HLJ as my "Does it exist?" reference.

Well, in past I bought details set for most the car I've in my stash: I feel those part start to cost a little bit much: 24 usd for a really simple decals sheet? 24 bucks for a "standard" P/E set? And media mix have really competitive price, as everytime. And I know, I have dozens of that PE set, I know those are great.

I become to upset a little: are Fujili/Tamiya management partners of detail set producers? They start to produce some stuff which a a fabulous look/appareance and lack of details/ ridicolous engine bays (I think in the next frraris they would place a decals under the rear window :thefinger) to push who like to do a decent model to buy detail set every day more expencive.

Well that's my tought. From some month I never bought a PE set. For the next model I designed my PE set (at least design is free :grinyes:) and to the service it cost me less than one acustion stuff for only 1 sheet (well a huge A4 sheet). For Christmas I bought me my mill machine with rot. table. Next week is my birthday and this week I keep my lathe. Well I need only to learn. No more compromise, not marketing enforcing to buy crap (models become to be crap, PE set even better every day more, why?).

But I can't say to be happy. I want more EM mr. Fujimi. I want more "enzo style" kits, mr. Tamiya. I don't need another '05 scooby which everyone have in his stockplile with a 04, 02, 01, 99 and a heller 03, Mr. Hasegawa, I need more kit like your old ferraris, jaguar, porsche, detailed and with PE and tubes. Who made those fabulos kit expressed his loving for this hobby. Who make kits like the '307 express to have an efficent marketing service inside.

my regards, mr. manufacturer and mr. detail items (at least they cost but are great)
