Unfortunately, I do not build 1:3 scale kits. They don't fit my 1:7 dioramas.

Very sad news indeed. While waiting for Ebbro to release long-promised kits was often frustrating, the releases of wonderful Lotuses and Tyrells were always worth the wait even if the upgrades to existing Tamiya kits were less notable (and the failure to update the chassis/tub of the Lotus 25 to fit...

Per Wiki, Emmo apparently drove this Test car, found it wanting, and went to Indycar instead. Mauro Baldi and Huub Rothengatter (!) split the races.

I would not mind getting the Ebbro 1/20 Tyrell 005s I ordered back in April 2021.

I've seen references to a February or March release date, or "soon" per Spotmodel.

I am hoping its February or March of 2024.



Does anyone have any inside information?

Michael has always been very responsive whenever I have corresponded with him.

I think he has been busy but I suggest you try him again or perhaps send him a PM from this site.

Question to the profis - I struggle with the ejector marks on the diffusor. How to remove them, especially the marked. IMG_4588.jpeg Jeez, you received the most god awful copy of this kit!

Does anyone have leads on finding a set of 1/12 JPS decals to convert the kit to the 1986 98T?

Caliper produced by Mclaren, the brake disk of the MP4/4 made by Carbon Industries.

Awesome pictures!

Thank you for posting.

Well, let's take a look at motorsports related scale models in general. I won't be considering small garage manufactures. Models of 'current' race cars F1 - None (2017 FERRARI SF70H, most recent) NASCAR - Salvinos JR Indycar - None ( Salvinos JR - soon, maybe) WEC - None ( 2018 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing ...
