I saw these images today, on another diecast board, of the new Kyosho Countaches due out later this year.

These photos were taken by Ulf Mirage at the Nurmberg Toyfair in Germany today.

Enjoy!!!

They list for around $60. I can't wait for them arrive, I want all three.
I already have the yellow LP400 Countach by Kyosho.

Only $60. Wow, that's a good deal. AutoArts are usually $50, and are good quality, but these look a lot better than that for only $10 more. However I prefer $20-$30 diecast. ;)

I think that the Kyosho and Autoart models are the best value vs. quality for the dollar. Although I do have some very nice Maistos. Exoto's are incredible, but way over priced.

I don't believe that Kyosho will be making a Murcielago, but the Autoart Murcielago is very good.

Yeah, I find it unlikely that anyone else will make the murcielago since it's already licensed to three makers (hw, maisto, autoart). Most cars are not even licensed to two! Zonda isn't even licensed to one..... :cry:

Hopefully Maisto or HotWheels get the Zonda. I know they won't be as good quality as AutoArt or Kyosho, but it will be cheaper (I don't spend over $50 on diecasts). Make sure you post if you find a Zonda being made. ;)

Put me down for one of those. Do you know if they are coming out with the 25th anniversary Lambo?

BTW what does DVSNCYNIKL mean? An acronym? Dives Cynical? I'm so confused... :smoker:

From what I have heard, Kyosho plans on making all the lambos. Including the 25th Anniversary Countach.

I really do hope they make all the older ones..:)

It lists for $59.99.
The red one was released first. Black and White version are due later this year.
I plan on getting all three colors. :)

I'm very familiar with Exoticar also, I live very close to them. I usually purchase my models during their sales. They tend to have some great deals.

I have recently aquired the Lambo in this thread at towerhobbies.com(another site for great deals on Kyoshos) for $40.
