Hmm, foray into F1 models for Pocher. That's going to be interesting.

With today's technology, Pocher should be able to create something great.

Hopefully, they will continue and with something more modern. I just bought their 1/4 Ducati and it’s stunning.

Re: 1/8 Lotus 72 Pocher...
Curious. Is the choice of 1/8th because the demographics of the modeler is over 50? Just asking.
I am more interested in the M23.

I’m over 50 and that’s all I build. That and 1/4 now. I am up to 14 cars and bike and counting. I am donating most to a museum in Los Angeles soon, but will continue to add.

Re: 1/8 Lotus 72 Pocher...
I am 74 and only build 1/12th. Gave away most of my 1/24th to a friend and fellow builder. I built a 1/8th Pocher Alfa and an Entex 1/8th Lotus 72. I still like the 1/12th scale. Easier to display.
I have no idea what I will do with all of the built models when I am ready to go. There are no museums in Hawaii that would want them. Maybe I will contact the Porsche and Ferrari dealerships.

Re: 1/8 Lotus 72 Pocher...
I’m over 50 and trying to get rid of kits smaller than 1/12 and hear the call of 1/8.
There are some quite interesting kits in 1/8 scale, Cobra 427 S/C, Ferrari F40 Competizione, Mercedes SLR Uhlenhaut, MP4/4, 312T4, Lotus 72 D, M23, but I’d hate to get started with overpriced ill-fitting toy-like kit.
