Aoshima is bringing two new Lamborghini kits to us in 2015, well, modified reissues, up first is a Lamborghini Countach 5000QV ,1988 model

I was hoping they would be releasing a Huracan.

We are waiting for them to announce their "new tooled" super car for 2015, its either going to be something from Lambroghini or Mclaren, they teased a photo of it, and I am leaning towards maybe a street version of the "fax machine", MP4-12C

Almost positive the tooling is being "modified" to represent a Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario.

I think you nailed it James, I am going to edit the opening post with that info , I was looking at the tunning company first , should of looked closer to home

Since the MP4-12C is now old news, I would think they would tool up it's successor, the 650S instead, or the P1.

That is my other guess as well, but we know how the model companys can be, old news is still new news :lol:

I have enough Countaches, and another 5000 QV is the last what I am looking for. The Aventador is certainly interesting.

I was thinking that too when I saw the first teasers of this new QV, but I'll danged if the addition of the fuel injected engine and the '88 "Spec" don't make a Countach that hasn't been kitted before.

Now how much of a difference that actually makes to anyone depends on how "into" Countachs you are...

Well, here's the 650S at the same kind of resolution:

And here's a Huracan:

I know which one I think it is....

Much as I'd love a 650S from Aoshima, I think the wide black "smile" and the contrast colours of the scoops along the sides would be more visible in the "teaser". Either way, though , I'll buy it, since I think the Huracan is super cool as well...

bestest,

M.

When that photo was first posted on the bog, I had feeling it was either going to be stock Mclaren 12C , or the Huracan , or the MP4

Anyways, first look of a pre production build of the Aventador, this was done by one of Aoshima's builders, and its going to be heading to the Nuremberg Toy Show , photo credits Sascha Müller

I don't believe there is to be any announcement of the Super Cars at Nuremberg, they are showing off an Orange (unsure if it's molded in color, or pre-painted like some of their other kits) and Molded Clear Body McLaren F1 GTR Long Tails which are obviously just tooling amortization kits.

Mayhaps I took that to mean the two McLarens, and the tentative subjects as being the 50th Anniversario Aventador, and '88 F.I. Countach,
