Beemax Audi Quattro

I'm trying to stay calm and not run in circles shouting...

Can´t wait to see that kit!!

Great, something fun to build in two or three years.

I've already built this kit in resin a long time ago (Reji models) but I didn't make the best job of it and I'll definitely look forward to this release so I can have another bash at it. One of my favourite rally cars of the Group 'B' era!!

Most awaited rally car ever (Although not my favourite. Nevertheless I'll buy a pair or two ) ! Beemax is spot on for every new release, I want them all !

Have you seen the profil 24 kit guys? Expensive but lots of detail and available now...

The Profil 24 kit is very nice and although it's not really expensive for what's in the box, it's still way more than a plastic kit. Personally I would rather have any given kit in plastic, mainly because of the cost, but also I prefer to work with plastic not multi-media.
As for the Beemax kits taking a while to come to fruition, well that's true. I waited and waited for the Celica TA64, but when it arrived I wasn't disappointed, it's a really nice, well thought out kit. At the minute only Beemax are offering us any of these classic rally models, so they should be praised for answering our wish lists, because Tamiya and Hasegawa have long stopped making any new rally or race car models. I don't mind waiting for the kits as long as we get them in the end. If Beemax is reading this please consider the Lancia Delta S4 and the Ford RS200 as future subjects. These two have long been overlooked, but would make great subjects in 1/24...

Of course, I even bought it at the time. But for that price I can have 4 or 5 Beemax kits. Ok, they're curbside kits, but the shape will certainly be more accurate because the Profil kit is far from being perfect.

I agree, Profil24 kit is not really good, don't be misleaded by the details level !
overall shape is... "strange" (!?!) with a crushed-like model, the rear under is false, and what about the roll cage molded Inside the body... like the cooling hoses...!

a Plastic kit 4/5 times cheaper even if either not perfect would be a good (better) deal.

I just hope the Profil24 205 T16 IS perfect !! (at least this one, pleaaaaaaasssssse !!)

It looks good although the build seen on their website is not top level. The price is instead top level !

Now that plastic gr.B are coming along, shall I take the risk to buy an expensive resin kit ??

Really great news. Also I will build one. Had the profil kit but sold cause I recognized I had really no time to build it. Just hope beemax will make all the versions of the Quattro s1
