Red Bull RB16B Alpha Model Rd.13 / 16
Posted: Fri Sep 16, 2022 2:06 pm
Since the information about the kit for the "MULTIMEDIA Upcoming F1 Releases 2022" has been scattered a bit, I would summarize a few things here and we don't have to "clutter" the other thread so much.
Alpha Model will release the Red Bull RB16B on September 30th, 2022.
First pre-order quantity was 30 pieces.

The kit comes with 2 decal versions. 1 blue version for the Dutch GP (Rd.13) and 1 white version for Turkey GP (Rd.16).
However, there are errors on the decal sheet again.
- wrong Mobil 1 logo on the White Bull Version
- missing OZ Logos - you need 3 pcs. per rim
- missing neon decals for the cam and the rear light
In addition there are some inconsistencies or limitations.
- Wrong tire decals for both GP's. For a race version and winners car you need some other tire decals and tire versions. In the kit are only yellow Pirelli stickers. For Dutch GP winner's Tires are white slick tires, for the Turkish GP the green Cinturato's.
- No mistake, but not really nice with 2 versions... there are 2 times the track layout for the Turkish GP - so no Circuit Park Zandvoort layout.
- Not a mistake either, but it gets a lot more difficult and needs painting are the non-existent black striped areas of the front wing.
Maybe there are other things, but those are the things that immediately caught my eye.
From the first pictures I also thought there was only one set of Rear Little Endplates, but the kit contains 2 different versions.
So what would have been a real problem at first sight is now an advantage I would say.
This means that you could also create other racing versions (Round 6, 7, 10, 12, 14-15, 21-22) by creating your own decals and some smaller changes.
