Looking forward to going to Sebring again next year. Should be a good show, but I would rather have a 512M or 275GTB C #6885 kit along with a Chaparral or XJR14.

looks like initial production will be limited. pre-ordered mine, just in case I miss out on first batch.

Re: MFH for November
I wonder if that is going to be par for the course from now on or just for some kits. It could be like testing the waters for a kit he isn't sure will sell or in what numbers. I mean some of the kits released really baffle me as to the why they have been chosen (we all know he does what he likes) and have me thinking how well they are actually going to sell, whereas others are safe bets as soon as you know what it is going to be.
Cheers,
Roman

Re: MFH for November
They appear to be limited on the production side - advertising for staff and apologising for having almost zero stock. Hard to know if there is a plan kit by kit, but in aggregate it appears they would prefer to have more stock.
Re: MFH for November
Has anyone given any thought to the application of the carbon fiber weave on the tub of the 333SP model. According to the pictures on the MFH site and some comments on another forum you are to paint the tub black, apply decals, spray gunmetal over the decals and then immediately remove them? So I'm getting from that that the decals are really stencils and you are spraying the weave through the decal? Which then gets taken off and clear applied.
Honestly not sure my skills (and luck!) are up to such a thing. Is it easier than it sounds?

Re: MFH for November
It is not easy but I have used with good results on some of the F1 kits
You have to get the decals off quickly
