The Creative Explorer

No I haven't yet, I broke my wallet on 3 Pocher's :-(. So, I might later on, maybe, perhaps.... But I had the idea of getting the panelvan, design a trailer for it and put a 356 on it.

Arno, trust me; pre-order! I did (@modelbouwenzo). I have seen 3D renderings of the Lotus (and no, unfortunately I am not at liberty to share them due to a NDA). But starting with the upcoming Ducati, there is a fresh start with Pocher and it is very promising!

Thanks ! I bookmarked that one!

Even that considered, it was hopeless. I think I bought that cd in '06-'07. The pictures are lo-res and you can't zoom in anything. In that timeperiod, I bought my first DSLR camera, 14mp and it made great pictures. Paying a hefty sum for that cd was a huge disappointment.

I got the reference CD of the 935 from Scalemotorsports, what a enormous let down..... waste of money. Sure, there are pictures, but they lack quite a lof of pixels.

It was already announced in the beginning of last year, but yeah, then we had an annoying virus happening. Italy got struck very hard with the virus, so I can imagine that it pushed back the release a lot. The Delta should've been released somewhere last year, but I wouldn't be suprised if it now comes in the second half year of this year. I am very much looking forward for the release though. I think it is the first rather modern hatchback that is being released in 1/12.

I am still looking forward for the 1/12 Delta, i'll pick up at least 2

I got married, have 2 kids and......: My other car is a Megane diesel......... ? But, I bought this back in 2002 and still have it. Just bought a place where I can have it actually at home and the plan is to get it back on the road this year. It hasn't been since 2006. They feel quite fast, and the turbo lag is very entertaining ? It is still a honest ride, steering is responsive, handling is like it should in a hot hatch and they smell like petrol ?

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For me, I love the design of the French cars, they dare to think outside the box and spend a bit more time on the design than other manufacturers did. Nowadays that is not really happening anymore as most cars can basically be brand-switched with different lights and emblems. I have to say that there is quite a difference between the American 5 (leCar) and the original 5 (the European). The American version is a European one, with a lot of modifications to meet the required american laws, which wasn't counted for in the original design and that shows. But the European version is in balance and quite stylish, compared to other European cars from that era, especially compared to the German counterparts. I am a second-generation 5 (super5 or super-cinque) owner and I do love the design of that small car. I have the sporty version, which has a small turbo-charged I4 engine, but generates enough oomph to have fun. even though it has only 120 hp, it also weighs about 1600 pounds.

This is the 'Alouette', which is the person version of the Estafette.

true, but still, I think the platform, windows, interior tub, dashboard can be re-used. It is a thought that won't leave my brain. I think the upcoming 911 release will share parts with the 934, but that is my own believe and not based on anything but my guts. hahaha.

I am wondering, would the new mould 911 share components with the not that old new moulds of the Revell 934?

It is very, very easy to swap out body's. Both kits are basically identical, the easy-click has a lower parts count, but mechanically the same.

I think that the Fiat Dragster you mean is 1/12th

It says it has a full engine, but it looks more like a top halve of the engine. Plus it doesn't look like the hood would be removable/openable. Bit of a dealbreaker for me.

There is finally some life in this years old announcement, even after Glow2B took over Heller and stated their first act was to bring the Estafette to life, it still took a long time. But there is finally some hope, as Heller posted this announcement! I am excited!

Interesting to see that there is no Ford License, but they managed to get the F O R D decals as seperate letters and only mention the decalnumbers in the instructions, without showing the letters. I am wondering if there is still lettering on the tyres as well, in the 1999 picture it appears to be blank sidewalls, but it is hard to tell.

It's the same with the hoodie girl, it appears.

According to 007, twice...

I saw it popping up online and loved it. When I was browsing through the pictures, I was really interested in getting one, but at 180 dollars, I find that too steep. I'd rather save that money for the Meng GT40 or new Italeri Delta.

I like it!

It is frome a Japanese guy who goes by Pocherman. I've been trying to figure out who he is, but I am affraid he either passed away or just stopped, since he didn't post anything since 20xx.

Sorry, I misunderstood ? I guess we end up on the same page .... hahaha. From what I notice, I see a lot more Aventadors popping up than those Huracan's. Which is also a bit logic, since the Aventador did sell better than the Huracan, I believe even by a great number. Never heard the 'cubic dollars' phrase yet, but I agree. A few years back, the F40 would do about 150-200 in a built form (I bought my K57 Dutch Prototype for 100, with only the interior minor built). But now, they don't get below 250 built anymore, usually between 300-400. But I assume it can also be some sort of wave, at some point it will lower again.

Revell had a somewhat 'turbulent' 2019 behind them, maybe we should wait and see how the cards will unfold. Revell GmbH was a healthy organisation and seeing what they have done now'they definately deserve the benefit of the doubt.

I am more interested in which coupe it will be, will it be the 2 seater or the 2+2? I hope for the first. I think the photo they supplied is from the 1/8th model, so I am not using this photo as reference for the upcoming kit.
