Footwork F13 DX w/photo-etch Fujimi 1/20 Fujimi brings us this odd Footwork, which was previously released by Modelers. |

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.

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

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.

Hasegawa 1/20

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.
