Even with that price I'm fairly certain this high end F40 will have no problem flying off the shelves with such a loyal fan base, and not just in the model car collecting hobby.

Pics of the next resin Ferrari have appeared. This time its the Testarossa, along with the following info:
"The underchassis of these new resin models will be made of die-cast. This is the prototype, so there are some details that will be improved, like the front lights.

More Ferrari resin model cars are coming in 2016:
F40 (Estimated delivery end Jan 2016)
Dino 246 GT Tipo L (Estimated delivery Q2-3 2016)
La Ferrari (Estimated delivery Q3-4 2016)"

Another 1:18 Kyosho resin model, this time the 1:18 Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 SV. Model is said to have:
All the grills are made with photoetched metal
The Lamborghini emblems are now metal decals
Headlights are much more detailed
I imagine all these are over the other Ouisia line models like the Veneno and Huracan.

Certainly can't argue with their chosen models! Hope their QC is up to the task

Very nice, though this is actually from their Ousia die cast series. About 60% less than a typical AUTOart pierce.

I'll still wait for an AUATOart version because I appreocate opening bits

Still not feeling them either. Wasn't there similar style wheel on a earlier AUTOart release that did not do that will?

for sure? Coulda fooled me, though on closer inspection, it does look to be made of metal. It's good that they spruced them up a bit though. I understand it's good to have a cheap model, but if for $10 more you can get it with perforated grilles, then why not

Looks good! Jeez those are some really big ass wheels! I'll have some official details from Kyosho as soon as they are released.

Anyone interested in reading up on their earlier release of the Lamborghini Huracan I'll have a new review posted very soon!

I'm interested! I probably wouldn't go for the Huracan, but curious to see what your pics show up - the wheels looked like they needed to be pulled out a bit

I'm with you, KRAFTIG. They're so busy & look WAY too big.
