Re: Look for Meng McLaren MP4/4 in the wild

These sets are great value for money, the wrong subject for this thread but I ordered the 99t radiator set as well. I hope they keep these sets coming, they are awesome!

Re: Look for Meng McLaren MP4/4 in the wild

The Fat Frog models MP4/4 brake set is now available at Hobbyeasy, I’ve ordered two and they look fantastic. Only around £20 plus shipping each.

Re: MP4/2C: THE ALL PURPOSE Italeri 1/12 THREAD!

I am sure there was a member of this forum who was involved in gathering info and photos for the three MP4/2 kits by beemax/NU NU/platz, he went by the name of The Hooded Claw or something like that, does anyone know if he’s still around and does anyone have an email for him?

Re: MP4/2C: THE ALL PURPOSE Italeri 1/12 THREAD!

Hi all, Does anyone have any gearbox photos for the McLaren Mp4/2 cars? I have found some great pictures of a Tag turbo engine block but so far I haven’t had any luck with the gearbox.
