Something for you 1/20th guys

Post by Icon_Modeler »

Maybe I missed the announcement. If that's the case please excuse me.

I noticed on the Spot Model emails I get that MFH is re-releasing the Hybrid 312T4. I have both kits so I don't need another but I thought that someone here might find this news welcoming.

:D :D :D

Interesting. Far amount of plastic kits for 1979. The big one missing would be the RS10.

I still think that was one of the best of their 1/20 kits. And I don't understand why they stopped and won't make any more hybrid kits.
RS10, RS01 and other cars done same way would have been amazing.

I agree!!

If you remember there was quite some delay with the release of the T4. I would guess that this was due to whoever supplied the diecast chassis and the injection molded parts. With MFH business plan changing and almost being singularly focused on 1/12th these days they seem to have no desire to be held hostage by a supplier. I can't say I blame them but it is we that suffer from a lack of a more reasonably priced kit in the Hybrid kits.

mmm, i asked MFH about a re-release, they replied they had 2 in stock of monaco version. Does not sound like a re-issue to me.

I realize there are people who feel like they have their finger on the pulse of all things they are interested in but you my friend are wrong :D :D

it is listed as a pre order and it is NOT the Monaco version. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
