With 2018 being the 20th anniversary of some significant wins for the 333SP I wouldn't be at all surprised to see several variations.

There are licensed models, unlicensed models that are winked at, and unlicensed models of cars from companies with more attorneys than engineers. One has to wonder how much that influences companies like MFH in their choice of subjects. Sometimes even suppliers and sponsors get involved. One famous example would be the McLaren F1 roadcar which, the story goes, was blocked from being re-issued by Minichamps when BMW wouldn't permit it. (BMW engine but McLaren by then was firmly partnered with Mercedes Benz)

Ferrari from the 60's, if a GT car could be a 250 GT SWB or a 250 LM. I don't think they would release a TR61, TR62 or 330 TRI... and the 512S are from the 70's

As for the McLaren F1, I would bet for the GTR, several versions to do from 95-96 and the longtails...

But I really wait for a proper F40 LM as Kyosho cancelled their project...

Profil 24 is doing a 1/12th Ferrari 250LM, so I could see Hiro doing one also. To be fair the Hiro would be full detail and the P24 just curbside.

Still waiting for the final part of the GTO trilogy, the LMB's in 1/12th scale from Hiro along with 275 GTB/C #6885, the car that handed FORD the last crushing loss for the Cobra's at Lemans in 1965.

Also surprised no Shark noses yet in 1/12th. I hope the Lotus is a 33.

Would be great but unfortunatelly the pre war racing cars and drivers are very forgotten in these days. If the modelling fans would know the epic races of Nuvolari, Caracciola, Varzi and many others great drivers, for sure we would enjoy a lot of models. Today, most people is interested only in Ferrari and Senna.

Lotus 25 should be one of the new kits. Possible versions of '62 and '63 and with a small extra effort they can do also the 33. It's one of the icon F1's of the sixties.

Come on Mr Hiro!!

You expect them to make scale 1/20 again? :D
Not beyond the realms of impossibilties, now they have DTM, of which you yourself have the SF70H in 1:20 kit.
Knowing English is not your first language Kars...
Niet buiten het rijk van de onmogelijkheid, nu hebben ze DTM, waarvan je zelf de SF70H in 1:20 kit hebt.

Happy New Year My Friend.

Steve
Thank you my friend, the same to you and all yours.

I think DTM kits were never on the MFH website.
So i don't think it's scale 1/20.

Nevertheless, cross your fingers...

Very true... I would love the Alfa P3 widebody Monaco winner or the German GP winner.
