Overall there are a few issues that I have noted below, but for A$114 it still represents excellent value for this scale and can build up into a very nice model.

Re: 1/12 Ferrari 330P4

Fuel line detail needed - MFH 1/12 Ferrari 412P

Hi, I am relatively new to F1M and this is my first post. My name is Brett, and I am a Melbourne Australia based modeller. I was so inspired by the MFH Ferrari 330P builds on this site that I took the plunge and purchased the MFH 1/12 Ferrari 412P kit. So far it is progressing well but still very ea...
