1/24 Ferrari kits DB - Need help (long)

[360spider]

Many of you guys know that I’m keeping (or at least used to keep up to date) a database of 1/24 scale Ferrari kits, aftermarket, etc, on my site. Due to various reasons related to health and work I was unable to build models for the past 3 or so years. As such, updates to my database, and website overall were almost non-existent.
I’m finally trying to get back into model building and starting to work on preparing an update to my site, etc. One of the areas that really need updating is the database, which was more or less neglected since early 2008. And as you can imagine, lots of kits and aftermarket were released for various Ferraris in that time!
And here is where I need help and your collective knowledge. Even though I somewhat kept track of new releases, due to my extensive time “off” I guaranteed to have missed some of the releases. So this is what I’m asking – I’ll put up a list of what I already have on for a particular model (or a family of Ferraris) and if you know any additional info – please post in this thread. Anything goes – I need names, pictures, kit numbers, manufacturers, etc. Any help would be really appreciated.
Let’s see if we could put together one comprehensive list of modeling stuff released for 599 – here is what I have so far:
Ferrari released the following models and variations of the 599:

1. 599 GTB Fiorano
2. 599XX
3. 599GTO
4. 599 SA Aperta
5. 599XX Evoluzione

So anything related to these models – be it kits, PE sets, decals, upgrades, turned parts, transkits, masks, etc – I need info on that. I’m not going to make you do all the work thoughJ. I have compiled a list if what I have found so far, but if you know of something that I have not listed – I need that. I will add stuff to the main list as I research more. Thanks in advance to everyone who is willing to put in time and effort into this.

I don't have anything productive to add to this other than I'm glad to witness your return to the hobby as a builder.

Well, we've yet to witness that part :-) I have not finished anything so far!

I remember when you started the DB and you got a bunch of pics from me. It's amazing how much the Ferrari model world has grown.

Yeah, I remember it as well. I still have them all too! I think I have about 400GB of various Ferrari kits and aftermarket related pictures on my HD. The amount of Ferrari-related merchandise is just unbelievable!

But you know, I'm glad I did all that work when I did it, because nowadays, it would be nearly impossible to trace any info about those older kits. Back then it was a lot easier, because that was all that was available.

And then market exploded!
Thanks for all your help.

Good to see you're getting back in it - what are you planning on building first?

Well, first I plan on finishing one of the 15 or 20 started projects.
Or maybe start with something new - something simple to get back into the swing of things? Not sure yet.

I've seen your simple. It's about equal to my 'next to bloody impossible'.

I've been checking out your site 4 or 5 times a month only to keep seeing that 'Updated: June 5th, 2010' time and time again.

Really looking forward to seeing more from you, Alex. It's your work that inspired me to take things one step at a time, and really enjoy the minute details of it all.
