Would it be possible to inform me if Biante are going to do all of Brocks Bathurst winning cars in either the Brock collection or the Bathurst Winners collection or is there a possibility that 1 or 2 might not get done.Thanks ANDO.

Biante will make every Peter Brock sedan car...Bathurst winner or not.
We will launch the new mould of the VR in August and then, time permitting, a special for Bathurst this year, and then we will get on with all the others over the next few years.
We will NOT be putting M*****o on any of the cars, so please don't ask that one again. Its Illegal. End of story.

Thanks Admin, i am not worried about the M word, i have not long sold all my Brock Dinkums while they are still worth something knowing that you would be doing them, just wanted to confirm, Thanks ANDO.

I recently purchased a Michel Guest Hyundai Accent WRC(yr 2000) rally car by the now broke Vitesse.
Michel Guest raced under sponsership from Winfeild and on this model it has the W and scribbly writing for the rest.
The empty gaps on the Richards/Skaife 92 GTR Godzilla are disapointing so a idea to fix the problem would be to release sticker sheets for collectors to put on their cars like small Camel filters decals for the Moffat 79 XC etc.


Start winning more rallys Tommi,SWRT

We had decal sheets in Sydney about 6 months after the release. Check with Sherriff's or the Granville swap meet guys for any still around they were pretty good.

you'll find that a lot of sites have various decals for sale too, in most scales. for touring cars and F1. and they are all quite comprehensive.

SWRT - The idea of sticker sheets has been around for a while, and has been discussed on this forum and the older forum from last year. If you can get a sticker sheet from your local hobby shop then get one (I got one for the Bathurst Godzilla), but Biante cannot provide (or produce) one with the car as it is illegal. As model cars are still classed as 'toys' under Australian law, no tobacco advertising can be put on them. So Biante are hamstrung on this matter. There have no doubt been cases where people have imported model cars on their own with tobacco advertising, but my understanding is that Biante cannot do so.
So that's the situation as I understand it. Frustrating, but reality.
I'd prefer to have Biante produce the cars in their current form without tobacco advertising, than lose the models altogether.

Sorry everyone, it's not my intention to start another tobacco advertising debate.

With the packaging of the Brock CV8 targa, inside the foam box had a peice of tissue like paper stuff.
I am wondering if it has a special name, and where I may be able to buy more stuff like this.

[thekid_600]
