There is a German store on Ebay that has sold brand new kits for years of the last reissue (2014): https://www.ebay.de/itm/REVELL-07390-1-8-JAGUAR-E-TYPE-XK-E-NEU-OVP/314100223698?redirect=mobile
I have not seen any other store sell them. Do they have some exclusive deal with Revell or what? Or just a huge stock that has lasted for ages?
Why bother mentioning what engine it is equipped with if it is not going to be included in the kit? It looks nice though I look forward to some photos.
Cool I want one. I wonder what the engine looks like if you cut off the hood? I suspect it is just the front of the engine/engine compartment that they bothered to do.
If I had a say I would rather have new beautiful box art like Revell are doing. But if it comes down to a retro box or no reissue at all then it is an easy chose.
I will follow this build for sure, I like what you have done so far.
Wish I would have bought this kit back when it was easy to get but I kept waiting for a better deal that never came...Hopefully one day Tamiya release it again.
Excuse my ignorance what is new on this kit and what kit is it based on? Could not see any history when I checked scalemates but it says "new parts". Saw a 1:1 for the first time the other day and really liked it. Will buy this kit when it is available.
