Red 1/12th GTR from Model Workshop

Looks like they've decided to offer GTRs based on the original LM mold. The first one being a replica of #10R - Nick Mason should be thrilled. Hopefully he gets his order in before all 30 are sold out.



If you want one, check out www.autoplacemodel.com.

Hadn't planned on it - red isn't really my color. I'd consider purchasing a liveried GTR like the '96 GULF, '96 FINA or '95 Ueno Clinic in 1/12th scale, but I'm not sure if Model Workshop has any intentions of going in that direction. I believe they would need to license the graphics from each sponsor which would be costly and difficult (assuming they wanted to be legit about it ).

Re: Red 1/12th GTR from Model Workshop

No red for me either! Don't like red cars generally unless there's a prancing horse on them....I would love a GTR in British racing green!
And call me crazy, but I would also like a bright green one.

True, there are some subtle differences in the details specific to a '96 GTR. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had been accurately captured.

Looks good in yellow as well! How many colors do you actually have now? With all these special colors around it kinda ruins the limited edition exclusivity that was originally intended with the numbered releases.
