Thanks for the updates for the NSXes guys!
The Ignition models for the NSX... they bodies look amazing, but the aftermarket wheels are too oversized IMO. I like my models looking stock
Kyosho... I didn't even know that they are still making models anymore. I guess I'll wait to see how that 1:12 NSX is and go from there
On a side note (Not to complain) but FYI, NA1 NSX is 1990-1996, when they had the 3.0 Engine.
NA2 NSX is 1997-2005, when they bumped up to 3.2. So the pop-up light NSXes from 1997-2001 are still NA2 NSXes

Just wanted to post and say thank you to Pacman808 for the OneModel NSX-R in red... it was my first transaction with William and it was easy to communicate with him to pay for and meet up. I would have posted a photo but I'm at work and his photos are way better than mine ever will be, but picked this one up: 
Very happy with it, thanks again!

991 RS in blue 
I wonder if they will make a Nismo 270R of the S14.... and pray that they will release S13, Sileighty, or S15 Spec R aero.... 
FFS, model companies finally selling the stuff we really want.

Finally GT Spirit will be releasing an exclusive North American Edition model.
It's a 2017 Ford GT. There will be two versions.
The first one is the Ford GT 66' Heritage, which Ford created to pay tribute to the 1966 Le Mans-winning GT40 Mark II race car driven by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon.
The second version is Black with silver stripes - without the #2 decal.
Only 750 models will be available for each version. Expected release date is May 2017.
Pictures posted up below are references only. Not production pictures.  
Can't wait for these to arrive!
Happy Collecting
William

Anyone ordered from TO Motorsports before?
Have an issue with my pre-order that I placed back in September: they charged me more than what my invoice is. They ended up shipping both cars out seperately (and charged me shipping twice) and didn't apply the discount code I entered (and was accepted) when I initially checked out.

No e-mails, no communication, nothing to tell me ahead of time they were charging me different to the invoice.
Wasn't until I checked my CC that I noticed the two shipping charges and lack of discount.

i used paypal and they took full payment from me in advance the day i placed my order. the amount they charged me matches the online invoice. i was not able to use a discount code because of pre-order restrictions for what i had ordered.
sorry i can't help you.

If you want them to ship together, then you have to email them and they will hold the model until the other comes and ship them together. If you don't let them know they will ship and charge shipping once each model becomes in stock.
They respond really quickly, like within an hour each time I inquired about something.
