New Revell Germany kits?

[Zurbert82]

I found this while browsing a german modelling forum. apprently they're releasing the 612 scaglietti and the old ESCI escort MK II. You can find a link here, although it is in german.

That is the greatest news ever. I even posted a re-release request for this on their website - does that mean Revell AG is listening?

See my Ford Escort RS "Cossack" on the Motorsport models page...

There will also be a Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona

I think it's a reissue.

I know a good friend who will be very interested in the reissue of the escort MkII. Thanks for the info

Also, if I understand correctly (my german skills ain't that good ) it will be available in March 2005. Wait and see.

Yup, Xav, you re right


The Ferrari 612 scaglietti wil be available in February,
Ford escort MK II in March
Porsche 944 in April (wonder if it's a Italeri rebox? - not neccessarily a bad thing)
BMW Z1 in January (never heard of there existing a kit of this little funcar? can anybody say something about it ?)



WOOOHOO, and dirt cheap too, thank you revell !

Olivier ( I ve been asking for the escort too, many, many times...)

The Escort is great news

First a kit of the Bentley GT by AMT, now a Ferrari 612 by Revell, we just need a Mercedes CL65 by Tamiya!

I'll drink to that.

And I'm a bit miffed at all the companies that have ignored the Maranello, and now we're getting a Scaglietti...aka "the wife's" Ferrari.

I agree. What's up with that?

[99civichic]

Which models a company makes doesn't depend entirely on the company; they also have to secure the rights with the car manufacturers, right?

I got a flier from Revelle yesterday that said the C6 Corvette and 2005 Mustang will be out next year, and it said nothing about them being snap-tites, that makes me happy!!

Can't wait to see some more pics of these models

I recieved an update flyer, and Revell Germany is releasing a 1/12th scale Corvette Stingray.

[Layla's Keeper]

Ahh, that 1/12th scale Stingray has been in Monogram's pocket for decades. 1967 Corvette Stingray coupe with a 427, right?

If not, then let the salivating commence if Revell-Monogram broke open the pocketbook to tool up a 1969 427 Coupe.

Anyways, new kits are always good to hear about, and it's also good to hear that new and exciting subjects are getting kits. The 612 Scaglietti is the platform the Maranello's replacement will come from, so who knows what Revell might be planning?

Porsche 944 and Ferrari 365 are reboxed Italeri kits.
The Z1 was already released by Revell GER in the 1990´s. It´s a very nice kit with good engine detail and movable doors and hoods.

I´m still working on two of them.

[DSM-Mark]

Can't wait for the 944!!!

Even the italeri ones go for way too much on ebay
