discussion New 1/12th scale Bugatti 35B kit by Italeri.

It is due for release this year. Anyone seen it for sale yet?
Been looking forward to this one since it was announced.
Will be much more affordable than the MFH kit.

Hi Noel, it appears to be still in the pre-order stage. Have a look here, if you haven't already...

Hi Allen, thanks for the reply.
I had a look at Scalemates, but that was about a month ago.
Cheers

Returning to a very old post here.
Bought the Bugatti kit when it was first issued, and only got around to starting it this year, other projects having intervened.
Nice kit, but has a few minor issues to sort out as I go along. Could not get my head around why the kit was supplied with a spare wheel carrier in the photo etched fret, but no spare wheel of tyre ?
Since buying mine they have issued a road going version with lamps, mud guards and of course a spare wheel and tyre. They have also issued another version since moulded in yellow to build Junek's racing car.
The 35B was a good choice to produce a kit of this iconic car.I
I also looked at the MFH multi medium 35B kit when it was released, but funds did not allow me to indulge myself at the time, much as I wanted to. Then the Italeri one came along at a much more affordable price !
