I had a nice and verry interesting speach with a member of Replicars. He has told me, that the Saab is not the standard with the models will come out. They are not verry happy with the result, so they go back to the manufacture for a better finish The state of the art is given by other brands, and NEO will reach this standard. Only the price will not go this high. The second model, the Pininfarina MB 300 is a verry nice peace of resin. This model shows us how good looking the models are. By the Saab, i guess they had too much rusch in front of the convention, and i think they will surprice us positivly in the middle of the year.

Mo87.de has some pics of the upcoming Neo range, the Neo website www.neoscalemodels.com also has the 1/87 models showing. The Jaguar MK VII with open sunroof looks pretty tempting to me.

They look absolutely fantastic! I'm happy that several model companies continue to present 1:87 replicas in resin, in spite of the added cost. It's such a great material to capture every detail, as exampled in the Saab Cabrio. I can't wait to buy several of the CX GTIs and Saab Cabrios. Now, if only they'd consider the 1982 Citroen CX Familiale Break and upcoming 2011 Volvo V60 Kombi, I'd be one happy camper!
By the way, the images on mo87 look good, and the links provide one additional perspective of the rear of the CX and some of the other cars. Thank you NeoScale and mo87.

Dear All:
I hope they reduce their Lincolns to 1/87; I do like the 1980's Town Car and all of the MK ones. I will get their 1/43 versions soon.

Neo just released a 1:43 DeTomaso Deauville - I guess if it was to make it into 1:87 it wouldn't be before my 40th birthday (2017), but that's good enough for me.

Dear All:
They are also doing vehicles I like. Besides the Lincolns, they also molded a 4 - door Cadillac Brougham from the 1970's - 1980's period. Cool.

The Saab is definitely an improvement over some of the earlier shots, but it's still problematic. Maybe if I marry parts of it with parts of the Wiking 900? Also, my fingers are just desperately itching to give the photo-etched grille a bend in the middle...
The Jaguar is spectacular. Looks nice and heavy.

Dear All:
Lincoln Mark V? Oh, cool! Up to now, only Matchbox made a model of it. Will want that, definitively!
