Caution Wake Turbulence Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Sounds good...I want one. I imagine the price tag may temper that desire somewhat! Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1fuN0 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Well Andrew, you dont have to fork out for paint, because it has Prepainted body panels, so think how much money you'll save 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draz87 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Steve, that really is fantastic news! Any idea on price? is it fair to assume that this thing will look the bees knees straight out of the box or should I get ready to start scratch building? Cant wait to find out more Draz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CockneyCol Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 This may possibly hurt.....then again it will probably appear cheap compared to Tamiya's latest 1/12 offerings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1fuN0 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Morning Chaps Id upload some photos, but our work server and Photobucket dont seem to like each other. You can however, have a look on www.pocher.com. I believe the kit has been made to look the dogs danglies straight from the box, as the blurb says its ready painted, although im not sure if that means just the body work or the whole thing, but again, doesnt stop you adding more paint/detail... Other than that, its a typical pocher kit, 600 odd bits in about 7 different materials. This is a bold move by Pocher, completely out of left field, but actually a very clever one, and if you read the blurb, seems this is to be a new range from them. Yes, its going to be expensive, Yes its going to be Epic and yes, I would love to see how Pocher do bikes and I dont think they could have choosen a better subject, but lets rather wait till we see the real thing before we start moaning about the box size, tyres are the wrong colour and theres one flange nut missing of the right side doo hickey.... (yes... thats sarcasm). I for one, think this is FANTASTIC!!! Steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks for the news and link Steve but I see it's already 'SOLD OUT'... Way passed my budget and not a scale I would consider just think how many 12th sacle Italian classics we could have had instead? Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickpadwick1801 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Holy crap that must be huge, think I'll stick to 1:12 if I build anymore bikes. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) It actually says 'Out of Stock' - it's because it doesn't exist (to buy) yet. The Aventador was Out of Stock on their website for almost a year before it came out. I'm guessing this kit will be available around November. Roy.

D1fuN0 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Howdy Well taking off the measurements of the real 1299, its about 517mm long and 276mm high.. Thats big! S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caution Wake Turbulence Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 5kg, apparently.... time to reinforce the workbench... Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I dunno... Is it because I only build cars? This thing still doesn't seem particularly big. Roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1fuN0 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hiya Roy. I know you are used to working with huuuuuge kits, but when you consider that the 1/12th scale bikes we normally build are about 15 odd cm long, getting our hands on one that half a metre long is quite something Steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caution Wake Turbulence Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The web seems to suggest it will be available in October with an RRP of €669 So, just put aside £2 a day between now and then, sorted! Andrew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 ....So about the same price as the Aventador - and prob the Huracan. Roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mencie Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Forget that... 699 euro isn't too bad considering the relative weakness of the euro at the moment, let's hope it's stays that way until October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_gn Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 If the bike images on the Pocher site look realistic, it's probably because they appear to be of the real bike. The same studio images appear on the Ducati website unless I'm mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
