Pye Man Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Does any body know when the 1/18 Alan mann Escort is coming out from Minichamps? Its doing my nut in. It was meant to be out ages ago!! Would be such a cool model to own
mk1super Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 Mate minichamps were supposed to be taking out mk2 rs2000s and a 2 door base model, i pre ordered them through my local model shop just to make sure i'd get em, im still waiting! They were also supposedly taking out a saph cossie in 1/18 scale too which still hasnt come out ( Possibly wont happen now as it was due out end of 06) Dont build your hopes up mate, ive stopped as it leads to disapointment.
Pye Man Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Posted April 30, 2007 Yeah, I got all the same patter off Grand prix legends and modelzone. The Alan Mann escort was meant to come out back end of 05, early 06 ish. Never turned up! Well will just keep galncing to see if anything does come out.
