von Race Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 https://dmodelkits.store/collections/vendors?q=Merrikits This will get you there. While I applaud Merrikits efforts to kit the current R5 rally cars, I question their judgement to not include decals at that price point. Also, thick cast resin and white metal bits equal expensive shipping. Pity, I wouldn't mind having some of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH once I saw what the cars were I didn't look any longer, but I agree, very naughty! I was just relieved there wasn't a Mk2 Escort there...!! 🤣 Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe offering an unsponsored car and then offering an array of different decals is the way forward . At Nunu / Beemax prices obviously !

Tamiya did do a release of the Escort Cossie without decals. It is a good idea - as long as a good selection of aftermarket decals are produced! I don't often use kit decals either!

TBH though thinking about it, I'd like them a fair bit cheaper given most aftermarket decals are now close on £20 a sheet - that would be good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitkent Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 They’ve spelt Meri Kits wrong,that won’t get them very far! Meri kits were mostly 1/43 F1 and rally white metal kits,and some very good ones too. Chris. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesa Jussila Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Price is quite heavy I really think do I want any of these so much. I can get Italeri 1/12 kit same money that I am more interested in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
