Hello,

did one of you purchased a Model Factory Hiro kit (1/43)?

this one seems interesting:

wonder why they decided to do a Lotus 72D since Tameo has that nicely covered:

thanks

Tameo has not yet done a Lotus 72D in JPS colors, only the 72C in Gold Leaf and Rob Walker markings. I'm sure it will be coming someday as its one of the only missing cars of the 1970's within the WCT series.

I've got the Eagle on order and am interested to see how fine the castings are. The casting quality on the newest Tameo stuff is just amazing. The MFH Eagle should be a good replacement for the SMTS kit of the same car though.

They do not look as good as Tameo. Looks like alot less machined parts included than in Tameo kits.

Why did they do the same car??? Why did Tamiya and Hasegawa both do a Lotus 79 in 1/20th scale within six months of each other?? Strange companies that I have noticed love to duplicate their competition.
