AirFix Aston Martin DBR9 & Jaguar XKRGT3

Any idea what these new releases are? 1:32 scale, some hornby stuff?

Re: AirFix Aston Martin DBR9 & Jaguar XKRGT3

Why, or why would Airfix make these in 1:32? Obviously, they got the license to release the kits, why choose such an odd (slotcar) scale?

These kits are probably based on the Scalextric slot cars. I believe Hornby's owns both companies.

OOOhhhhhh, another Gulf-warroir..................

The scale meets my former times favorite military modelling time, classically 1/35 scale.

Would be quite interesting what kind of quality? Anyone?

powder blue and orange greets
