Coming back

Coming back
Yes, things are coming back from the old times when we were younger. Back are those days at home, those idle afternoons, and also are returning the scale models from back then. For example, the BMW R80 G/S 1000 edited in the 80's by Protar and now recasted by Italeri, the Peugeot 206 WRC by Tamiya originally edited in 2000 (yes, that's twenty years ago), the beautiful and cheap model of the Volkswagen Beetle 1300 by Tamiya released in 1994, the MFH Ferrari 312T4 released in 2012, or the batch of Porsche 917, Ford GT40, Ferrari 330 / 512TR / 288 GTO / 250 GTO / F40, all of them by Fujimi that are arriving at SpotModel's warehouse these days.

All of them are mind-blowing models that maybe you were not able to get, and that we have now managed to bring back for you. But beware, some of them come in limited units: either you get them now or you will miss them... again!

Maybe you have them all already? No problem, there are also a few interesting little things just out of the oven, as is the case with the MFH scale model of the Maserati 250F in 1/43 scale and the Ferrari 312B in 1/12 scale, Reji's liveries for the Lotus 49B in 1/12 scale or for the Belkits MG Metro 6R4. :)

Scale models of all times, back in SpotModel, oh yeaahh!!! :D

Reji Model Reference: REJI-333

In 1986 the Gr.B continued to dominate the rally scene, as in the European championship. In the Ypres rally held in Belgium there was a close 3-way fight between the local drivers... and the tobacco brands, since the podium was dominated by the colors of Belga and Bastos. In third place was the beautiful Metro 6R4 by Marc Duez, whose decoration has been reflected in a complete decal sheet by Reji, including the thin red bands for the color change areas to facilitate the painting of the bodywork, and other details like the sticky tape used at the rally to hold down one of the rally plates.

Reji Model Reference: REJI-331

Per Eklund was a regular in different world championship events, mainly those where the surface was especially slippery, such as Sweden, Finland or the RAC in England. These were precisely the events chosen by Eklund in 1986 for his forays into the World Championship during the 1986 season, reaching seventh place in both the 1000 Lakes and the RAC. Precisely the decoration of this last rally is what we can do with this Reji decal sheet, with a great definition in its designs as usual.
