I just want to ask 2 questions which maybe admin could answer......1: Is there any plans to make a Red or Blue or White version of the XU-1 Torana and 2: Is there any plans to make the whole line of Holden Monaro's...ie the HQ,HQ350,HQSS, LE, HX, HZ.

Hope someone can answer my questions :)

Dear Admin
Will there be a re-tool on the wheels for 73 XU-1 race cars ?
I know it was probably a question of $$ at the time , but the wheels on Brocks 73 No1 car were not quite accurate.

p.s. I have some closeup pics of what they should be if required......

What scales are Dicks Zupp XU-1 getting made in?
If you guys won'y be making it in 1/43 I might get the Dinkim Johnson Bathurst 73 XU-1 1/43.

my guess would be 1/18 only
as this car has allways been part of the DJR collection.

Admin any chance of A Strike me Pink XU1 in 1/18 this year too.

Red seems to be the most popular color in the Road Cars XW ,XY two reds ,XA ,A9X,SLR 5000,R8, and GTS.

Even though I'm a follower of the 'Blue Oval Brigade', I'll be extatic to see Dick Johnson's 'Little General'.

Count me in.

Personally, I'd prefer 1/43, but that's just me. Surprisingly, the most popular colour in the real XU-1's was WHITE. Biante has done this car in 1/43 (I have it) so I'd love to see a race model, someone's, anyones!

Just wanted to bring up this old thread to ask a question of admin.

When will we see the Red and White XU-1s in 1:18? And how about an orange one too? I've been holding off buying a yellow or green one to get any of these colours.

We have just finished research on the LC GTR and XU-1.

In production at the moment are 1:43rds of the LJ in Sunburst and Gunmetal.

1:18th in Tangerine is also in the pipeline as is Dicks 73 car.

1:18th XU-2 in Strike Me Pink will be out by years end with all the CORRECT information coming from Harry Firth, who built the 4 cars.

I haven't got a pink car and have been contemplating painting a car pink for reason (maybe it's just the lack of bright colours in my collection), but not sure which car I should do, anyone think of any other cars that look good in pink? How about a Ford Cobra, pink with dark pink stripes. And the Tangerine XU-1, in the words of one Montgomery Burns, EXCELLENTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For some reason Pink suits the XU1 or XU2, would be hard to imagine it would suit Ford muscle cars,or VTs i think there size would make them look too Pink
Have seen a 1/1 SS Hatchback getting around in Strike me Pink , A matter of Taste you either like it or Hate it no in Between.

Hope the XU2 has a Bond 1/2 Roll Cage in it,Dont know if it suppose too ,but it would look good with a Black Cage.

I have 2 1/43 models in pink: Trax E38 Charger in Magenta, & Biante XB GT Hardtop in Mulberry. Both look fabulous.

Strike me Pink & Tangerine will look great, what do you guys think of a Silver XU-1 ??
My collection seems to have too many red cars as well, just like Glen said previously.

I'd like to see a cyan metallic XU-1 with steel road wheels and dress rims....I am biased on this colour though...
