Dear Fellow Collectors,
I received the pictures of the samples of F50 GT from the Make Up.
Enjoy!

Prancing Horse badges on the both front fenders,
Magneti Marelli logos on the each side of the front skirt,
the rear wing with the negative angle of attack,
and the black tape on the panel line behind the side window on each side.

Thank you Nobuyuki! Great pictures and great model. I really like the way Make Up did the exhaust and rear diffuser, they do a great job of capturing the smallest details.

By the way, I will be stocking all versions, not just the red. I know the others are fantasy colors but one of our fellow collectors convinced me that they would be popular as well.

On the rear grille, it still isn't a major improvement over BBR. Owners of the original BBR release, are you going to replace yours with this newer Make Up Eidolon verison?

Read from Make Up's page that "EM157A Ferrari F50 GT Test Fiorano 1996" is going to come on a leather base, if the online translator is working.

For the "black" version, is it in gloss or matt black?

this new Make UP F50gt looks much improved over old BBR one.
the body shape and details are so much better than BBR.

Black one seems to be matt black.

I must admit this model is very nice and seems better than the BBR but i will not change it anymore. The F50GT from BBR is one of the first i have bought 10 years ago. I love it :-)

Nobody really "needs" this or any other model as the models aren't the necessities for life like food and water, but I bet that still many wish or even plan to have it! Me included! I think it was good to wait for this one instead of going for the BBR.

The black is gloss black however Make Up is producing a matte black and a silver version for another dealer but they did not say which one.

Thanks Mike. Not a big fan of dual-tone coloured bodies, I hope they will have a full matt black with black rims instead!

I thought they will use the new leather base like this. We met the boss of MakeUp last month and saw the samples

That blue QV looks magic on that tan leather base!
Funny, I read in a list in Japan that metallic red QV was going to be limited edition on a leather base - there was no mention of the bright red or the blue. Yet here we are, a picture says a thousand words :o)

The Make Up has the correct pronounced frontwheel archers. The BBR doesn't

I asked Make Up for photos of the F50GT cockpit. Enjoy!

What a shame that gets poked inside an F50 cockpit where it will hardly be seen...

Shows Make Up are still at the top of their game, though.
