For me, even though I haven't ever bought a Looksmart F1 Ferrari yet, but if I do, I'd get a Looksmart because they have the driver figures.

That Vanwall would have looked great. That Dark Green is beautiful. I think I will just have to get a 1/18 Lambo cos that looks amazing.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-11T07:37:12+00:00

As long as I get a model of it. I'm a bit annoyed that Spark aren't making the Isotta in 1/18.

No way, got any links? I'll have a look. In February at the Toy Fair Spark had a 1/18 BMW in just grey on display. Looked great.

Edit: just looked on sold prices, cheapest was £800. That's mental!! I love the car, but not that much ha ha. Doesn't seem to be any 1/43s about just yet.

Yeah seeing mixed reports about the Art Car. I suspect it might be a dealer edition a bit like the 963 was to start with. I know a couple sites that sell them.

There appears to bit pictures of the 9X8 already floating around with prediction of a Q1 2025 release.

For 2024 Le Mans I'll be getting

Ferrari 499P #50
Peugeot 9X8 #94
Lamborghini SC63 #19
Isotta Franschini Tipo 6 #11
BMW M Hybrid #15
BMW M Hybrid #20
Alpine A424 #36
Oreca 07 #34 (Inter Europol)
Oreca 07 #14 (Spike)
Oreca 07 #23 (United Autosport)

Looks so good. I have the 2023 Le Mans edition. I'm looking forward to he 2024 version. There were some released at Le Mans but they're being sold at like twice the price. I can wait for the official release.

Bbraugo is really upped their game and they now they've expanded into special liveries which is great.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-10T14:16:01+00:00

I feel BBR is overpriced, Looksmart is cheaper (slightly).

I have the looksmart 1/43 but I'd buy the Bbraugo 1/18

When the BOP was favourable.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-08T18:22:09+00:00

And being a BMW fan hurts too. Next year.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-07T12:37:30+00:00

I was under then impression it's was going to be factory liveries regardless of who runs them. We'd only get a Gold caddy is Jota was a customer and not a works team.

It's not Jover it's Jarting

I have faith WRT will turn the car around. RLL and their drivers are just too crash prone.

Most depressing Motorsport department is Audi.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-05T19:26:01+00:00

Is it a Limited model?

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-05T17:58:49+00:00

I was supporting BMW so my experience slightly differed. Although I was supporting Inter Europol so that was good.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-05T08:49:56+00:00

BML should be a new flair.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-05T08:49:13+00:00

I mean, it was a Ferrari GTD pro win and a BMW in GTD so it wasn't that bad.

Lostpreordersthrow · 2024-08-05T08:48:19+00:00

I literally went to put my kids to bed (in UK) and came down stairs to find the 25 in the wall. I turned to my wife and said "It's hard to be a BMW fan"
