Lots of nice looking models there

I dunno, that is a new pic from when I looked at them before.

Is it just me? Or does that kit look much bigger than 1/25? Like 1/12? I would so like a 1/12 Countach!

Going to have to investigate!

OK...found some more pages,

The Blue Lambo is an Aoshima kit...they are also doing an older Countach as well...the orange one. Both 1/24....the blue one looked a little bigger than that in the first photo.

Anyway here are some more links.

a 1/12 Countach would be awesome, we need a fingers crossed emoticon Scott!'

And my hear just about skipped a beat when I saw the Tamiya Ju87, til I realized it was a Italeri rebox. still looks pretty nice though.

I was so hoping Bandai would announce a 1/100 Kshatriya, even a no grade, but instead its a silly SD. Grrr!  :)

So, basically a pre-made wash in a bottle. Between the Vallejo washes and the Promodeler washes, I think this has been covered for awhile.

Besides, it is Tamiya, there will be something wrong with the label and it won't be able to be had in North America for the next 5 years!!  ;D ;D ;D
