Reply to "Kyosho 1:18 scale model"

An Update - I was speaking with a friend who deals in model cars on a smaller scale than Toronto Motorsports (he has a loyal following of collectors who turn to him when they're looking for something hard-to-get). Anyway, I spoke to him about the Pantera model to find out what he's hearing in the market ...

1) Release still looks like early to mid-March.
2) He's having trouble getting supply (he's only being alloted a handful of cars and they're spoken for already). Toronto Motorsports doesn't seem to be having any supply concerns so far, they had a significant number of cars put aside early on (to cover our group buy and their regular customers), so it looks like they're still able to take our orders!
3) For you 'yellow' fans out there, the rumour (rumor*) is there might be 2-tone cars coming out late in the year - red/black and yellow/black (don't ask me whether that's a top/bottom scheme or a body/hood-trunk (bonnet-boot*) scheme) - whatever it turns out to be, I'll probably break down and buy one of those too. No word on 'Green' yet - Sorry Adams
