Re-Releases

Footwork F13 DX w/photo-etch

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GPSP
090672

Fujimi brings us this odd Footwork, which was previously released by Modelers.

McLaren M23

Tamiya 1/20
Grand Prix Collection
20062

At last, Tamiya re-pops this kit. Get it now while you can.

Lotus 78 w/photo-etch

Tamiya 1/20
Grand Prix Collection
20065

Now that the 79 is here, this kit makes a good reissue subject.

Wolf WR1

Tamiya 1/20
Grand Prix Collection
20064

Another good reissue from Tamiya.

Ferrari F92A

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GPSP8

Fujimi also re-pops this Ferrari,
which was previously released by Modelers.

1/20 F1 – 2009 Plastic Kits

1/20 F1 – New Plastic Kits

New Tooling

Ferrari F60

Tamiya 1/20
Limited Release 
20059

This is Tamiya’s first new F1 kit in almost 10 years. It’s great to see Tamiya back in the game. 

Ferrari 187/88C

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GP-12
090498

A great addition to any 1/20 F1 collection, and previously only available from Studio 27. Berger had multiple wins in this car, not just at Monza in ’88.

F1 Mclaren Honda MP4/6 
JapanGP

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GP-10
090443

Fujimi steps up to fill the void left by Tamiya and complete the Senna MP4 range with this kit. Bravo.


Ferrari 312T2, 1976
JapanGP

Hasegawa 1/20
20243

This is the car that Lauda ultimately refused to drive in that rainy GP in 1976. You gotta believe that was a good decision . . .

Ferrari 312T2 1976
Monaco GP Winner

Hasegawa 1/20
FG1

Hasegawa’s first in this F1 series – a previously overlooked subject in 1/20 (only Tamiya’s T3 is close). Fortunately, Hasegawa is still cranking out more F1 Ferraris.

Ferrari F1 2007
Brazil Grand Prix

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GP-11
090481

Kimi’s championship winning car. Another pick for the Tifosi. Not an appealing design, with all the tabs and brackets for the winglets.

Ferrari 248 F1 2006

Fujimi 1/20
Grand Prix Series GP-9
090467

Michael Schumacher’s last win was in this car. He didn’t win the championship in 2006, but he came close.

Not a favorite design of mine, but a significant car nonetheless.

Prost’s winning car. Other versions: Ferrari 641/2 France GP ClearBody Spec, GPSP-5

Re-Releases

Driver & Engineer Set

Tamiya 1/20

Tamiya finally got smart and started including the Driver and Engineer set with this kit. Senna fans can now create realistic displays with the driver and engineer included.

These kits are part of Tamiya’s Japanese catalog. I have not seen them in stores in the US, but they are available from online dealers.



Coming Soon

Ferrari 312T
1975 Monaco GP Winner

Hasegawa 1/20
FG2

This is an interesting future release. Ferrari’s dominant 312T was a classic design, and therefore a good subject for modelers.

Williams FW14/B

Fujimi 1/20

Grand Prix Collection

Never before seen in 1/20 plastic, this is a classic F1 car we all need to have. Mansell fans can now complete their collections of his F1 race cars.

Tyrrell P34 Six-Wheeler

Fujimi 1/20

Grand Prix Collection

This is an odd choice, since the 1976 car has been available from Tamiya for some time. Also, the nose of this car does not match any of the race reference photos I can find. Hopefully they will produce a 1977 version.
