I asked admin the same question last night
heres the reply I got

"At the moment it looks like all 3 scales will be available in shops about the week before Bathurst.
Depends on ships mostly..they are getting harder to book especially direct from China.
18ths are no problem...43 and 64 may just make it a week before if we only get one shipping offload.

To tell you truth, I would rather Biante did not release any of this Years Bathurst cars b4 the race, don't get me wrong as I collect all the Bathurst Winners

If one of the cars doe.s win the race then it's not part of the Bathurst Winners Collection or will Biante release a Special release which would devalue the first batch

Look at the Last 1:18 Brock Bathurst car it did not have the Bob Jane 1000 logo on the door, just toke the shine off it for me

I would rather be patient and Waite until after the race I do not see the urgency to get them out what is more important Qty or Quality

I seem to remember biante saying that if one of the HRT cars won, they'd release a bathurst winning car.

yes, I'm taking advantage this year of the Club 1 members signing session at the mount on the Saturday to get my 1:18 #05 COA signed by Brock and Plato, and if they come out the 1:43 twin set COA's and if possible the 1:64, but I dont know what the limit is



I seem to remember biante saying that if one of the HRT cars won, they'd release a bathurst winning car. probably would, then wouldnt these pre-bathurst cars theoretically increase slightly in value? just a theory

Anyway for me personally its a good idea because if their out prior I can get them autographed, I'd hate to be trying to track down Plato in the future! (even Brock would be difficult unless you attended Procar events and even then ...)

yeah i'm a bit concerned ... I got the email a few weeks back to let me know its status had changed on my watchlist to in transit but I havent heard yet

My concern is I'm going through a stockist in Melbourne, and I'm in Sydney ... so by the time Biante send them to the stockists and he sends it to me ...

hmm still aint heard nothing ... 4 weeks till the big event!

I am still hoping for the best, I want to get the COA autographed by the men themselves, especailly because its a bugger to get Brock at the best of times, and Plato might never come back to Aus, or at least could be a while before he does come back (ie last time he was here was Bathurst 2000)

I thought I could make use of HRT Club 1 members signing session on the Saturday and be guaranteed to get both their signatures, but its hard if I dont have the car or COA!

Biante said it'd be here before Bathurst, so i'm sure it will be.

well ...

I'm sure it'll make it to Biante before bathurst, I'm more concerned about how long it'll take to get sent to stockists, because I missed out ordering via Biante, and as mentioned before I went through a bloke I know in Melbourne, plus he then has to send it to me here in Sydney, so it looks like I may be running a very thin line here

yes but 1:18 has been in transit for quite some time.

I checked my email and I sent it to him Friday 27 August to give my stockist a heads up to let me know its close, and to let him know how much I want this model, it was listed earlier then this tho as in transit, it mightve even been on the 26th Aug or earlier, listed as in transit, thats just the date I sent the email to my stockist.

Its now 2 weeks later (13th Sep) with no indication when their gonna be here, surely soon though!
