Both Kyosho and Minichamps are expensive and it would be hard to justify buying duplicates. But both are so nice and I would hate to give one up. I'll probably be getting the different colors or display them in opposite directions to view both the front and rear of the cars.
Kyosho Release #38 British Sports Cars
Hi Everyone,
Here are the official pictures from Kyosho's release #38, the British Sports Cars. They've strike gold again with this new release. The car selection are excellent, and each one is loaded with fine details. I love how they created a new mold for each of the McLaren F1 and just didn't get lazy and simply slap on a rear wing and mark it as the GTR version. The race cars are awesome too... probably available for the first time in 1/64 scale. I'm sure we'll see some interesting eBay wars on these cars.
Just like the last few releases there will be a secret/chase car. I have no idea what it is though. Most likely a color variant of a particular car, but I'd love to see that they've pulled some extra effort and maybe created a McLaren F1 GTR with racing livery..... yeah...
Enjoy the pictures and start saving money.

Kyosho have not placed any tobacco sponsors on any of their mini-cars even though I'd like to see them too. But there are tons of after-market decals to fullfill people's need to customize their racers. Here's an example from a Japanese seller:

We can always hope for another British car release in the future. But with the current release, particularly with the McLaren F1s, Kyosho have just about round up the modern super cars. Of course I'd love to see some super exotics like the Konningsegg or the Zonda.... but then again I won't mind seeing more Mercedes, BMW, or Porsche. They really need to make more Porsche race cars like the 917, the 962... and so on.
