shood23 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 The old or new 500? Either way it should be a nice little kit in 1/12 Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetroRacing Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Fiat 500 will likely be the old one. The Renault 5 Alpine will be the ex esci rally car. Same for the mk2 Escort. And they are also releasing the ex Nitto Lancia Stratos Safari. Ashley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fazer Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Italeri apparently have bought the original Protar moulds of the 1/9th range of bikes & have got them refurbished & cleaned up in China & now are re-releasing some of the old classics...Lovely....

krow113 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 In todays market there will have to be significant upgrades to the wheels and chains of the Protar kits if they expect to sell very many. Two sprockets straddlin' the chain aint' gonna cut it Italeri! I sure hope they can get it going, I love the Provini kits , so cool for their time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
