In Sweden it is not even a gamble anymore I know they will add 25% + a ~$9 handling fee. Many times I've been tempted to order from Japan but in the end it is not worth it.
I wonder what the status is for the Coupe? Did it ever make it onto Revell's website? The roadster is there now: https://www.revell.de/en/products/modelmaking/cars/young-oldtimer/jaguar-e-type-roadster.html
Mine is stuck in customs and have been for about 2 weeks I wonder if I will ever get it. On top of that I expect a nice fee. Sounds great though that it is an excellent kit.
Yay no more red. I can see on several of my boxes that it says "Made in Poland". Perhaps you could ask your contact at Revell how it is going fixing the windshield?
Thanks good to know. So the only way to be sure I get a good body is to buy the US version or wait for a long time to buy the German version and hope it is not old stock otherwise I would have to ask support for a replacement.
What's the story behind this kit? Was there a competition who could design the weirdest looking vehicle and the prize was to have it tooled? I am not criticizing the kit I am genuinely interested in how this kit came to be or the vehicle rather.
