Damn.........i recently paid a lot of cash for my MKll.....

Re: Re- releases....maybe....!?!

Excellent news. My sources tell me that the 240Z 1/12 models will be amazingly reasonably priced too at something close to $50 - $60 US. If so that is simply amazing value for money. Now if only Tamiy would tool up for some new 1/12 models. I would personally love to see some touring cars in that scale..

I've seen a good few Morgans, 2CV, Jag MK11 etc for sale on ebay. Good indication of some attempting to sell their kits before anyone notices they are being re-released. Lot of them in the UK,

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...975212195&rd=1

Says it all really.. Tempted to bid, but I can buy a new one soon and this is one 1:12 scale kit I will be buying, along with the morgan 4x4. Already got the Jag Mk11, got them some time ago for £18.00.. Wished I had held of now.

I recently forked over a princely sum for a Jag Mk II as well!
Great news about the Rally 240Z. I'll have to find a place to hide one of those in the garage.

Alright, where's the damned Supra Long Beach marshall's car???

That's one I really want to see reissued! I suspect they're too cheap to revise the decals/boxart for licensing reasons.

And here I battled to get the Fiat 500F and just as I do, it gets a re-issue. Oh well I'll buy another one I guess. HAHA!

That's the spirit.
(Easy for me to say, I almost bought the Fiat at a model show over the weekend, but by the time I came back to the vendor it was gone. Now I feel quite clever for having missed it )
But oooh they're re-releasing several of the cars I've wanted and been unable to find - quite exciting!

Now if only the 695SS is re released that would be cool.

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on the Morgan and MkII myself. They go for a fair penny on ebay!!
