MFH kit for August 2021

Post by F1tommy »

So what new maybe 1/12th kit will they do for August. It seems it will be one of Carlos Reutemann's cars.

Well, on seeing the flag I immediately said "Fangio" - didn't even bother reading the names (driver and cars)... Biased much? So they are giving a list of possible cars of his - obvious question, is one missing from the lineup? If so then that one.
Other than that 312T2/3 springs to mind - to mine anyway. But we have that model already unless I'm mistaken. BT44B or FW07B? I'd wager on the latter.
Cheers,
Roman

BT42 would get my vote. He drove one in 1973
I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

I’m thinking his 1980 Monaco winning FW07B….Lole!
Or perhaps a Rio ‘78 312T2?

I’m guessing it will be an iteration. Their design and manufacture cycle seems too long to be able to start a model now for next month. A T3 is possible, but a T2 variation would be most likely (i think...).

Hiro has already done both the 76 and 77 T-2's in 1/12. Reutemann drove both of these as Enzo hired him to replace Lauda at Monza in 76, thinking Nikki wouldn't be back that soon. One of Hiro's 1st ever F1 releases was the T-3, done in 24th scale. I'd like to see them do a 1/12 version of the T-3.

Martini Lotus 79 is obvious.
Ferrari 312 T2 1977 is obvious.
