    Great news! Any estimated release dates and prices?

    Great news indeed, however it remains to be seen if the internal details and quality will match GMP’s Ferraris, and also whether they use decals (ugh) or proper tampos for the graphics.

    With the number of hobby shops closing down or already having done so who is actually selling these hand built models? And this is the first time I’ve seen these cars has anybody got an idea of the price the 1:18 will be selling for. Also what numbers will these models be made? Also where are they made (country of manufacture for the models) Is there a local Australian distributor? Do these models come apart as so engine and other bits can be admired, are the wheels removable on these models.

      R.A.R.E. Models caters to a niche segment. They are located in Italy and produce hand made replicas. Based on this the models do not come cheap, you’re looking at possibly $500-$600 mark price point.

    Hi guys,

    It’s the first time I hear from this manufacturer, R.A.R.E. I couldn’t find anything about them because the word “rare” is frequently related to model cars. Do you have a link or any other reference about them?

    Thanks!
