Hello everybody,

Another kyosho minicars release is on progress, this time is formula one second set, with a wide range of ferraris from 1977 to 2006, from Lauda to Schumacher.
I prefer only street cars in my collection but the models seems to be superb, perhaps I´ll buy one or two.

Thanks for the info! I prefer street cars too, but I think I will also buy one or two. Especially the early ones from 1977 and 1978 are cool. And the details are going to be great if I judge from this picture: :eek:

Strange that Scheckter's championship winning T4 from '79 is missing?

Isn't this the 3rd time around for most of these?? I can't say I have a problem with that and sort of wish they would do that with some other sets. I'm not normally a big fan of F1 or Indy, but this collection is rich in history as F1 itself. Theses cars look great with a good mix of dedicated wheel/tire combo's that go a long way in completing a convincing representation. Engines have good detail in areas where it's exposed. Seats (and seat belts on some) are there along with accurate steering wheels. The only thing I DON'T like on this set is the silver wind screens.

I think it's good that some people get another chance to pick these up.....but the larger question seems to be, with the Audi's being the last newly tooled set, how much more time off are the Kyosho 1/64 tool makers getting?

I got a couple of the early versions from the coffee promotion, and boy were they expensive, as said, good to see Kyosho will re-issue some of these. How about that darn IMSA BMW 3.5 CSL!!!!
