Product# TM18-85A / TM18-85B / TM18-85C / TM18-85D
I believe no one ever did this car in 1/18 scale before, it’s considered by some as the 65 GTO and it’s also considered by experts as the most valuable Ferrari (and probably car) in the world. I have seen image sof the real model and it looks very good.
My heart skipped a beat when Technomodel announced this model back in February of 2019. I ordered it immediately and was fortunate to receive #1 of 120 made. To me this was the most beautiful example of the 275 made. The model is gorgeous but the base isn’t. I also contacted Technomodel to seriously consider producing ples showcases to fit the bases of their models to protect them from dust. This model, like most by Technomodel deserves to be protected as it will be admired for years to come. I also pleaded with Ilario at the Technomodel store to please produce a version of the Ferrari 330 LMB another rare and beautiful GT race car. None were available in 1:18; however an enterprising modeler built one combining the front end of Hot Wheels 250 GTO and the cabin and rear of the 250 Lusso. Technomodel is releasing their versions soon and I anxiously await the delivery of my pre-ordered model.
Oh, I almost forgot, Technomodel is now also producing plex tops for their models.
Some fit the bases well but some do not. I would like to see them offer their models with tops that come with the models and that fit each base well. The tops are a bit expensive and I will only cover the best of my models from them as I have a lot!
