For Wiking a Mustang II wouldn't make sense, as no one in Germany knows that model. Same goes for the Vega. The fastback however would have been a great model.

Yeah I hope for the Infiniti, too. I think everything is possible. I could even imagine New bread and Butter Cars from Neo. But your List is Great. I'm also writing a List to send it to them and all these vehicles are on my List, too.
I think they said at some time that later they would possibly bring New Cars, too.

I think the back end is the interesting and unique thing of this car. I like it very much. And the model looks great.

Not new models, but I read at Burbanks that the CMW Dodge Coronet and Royal got cancelled. Don't know if that's news or not...

They had a lot of models that weren't made before, like all the Alfas and Lamborghinis. However Highspeed/Schuco made some of them (i.e. Alfa 156 GTA, Lamborghini Gallardo), too, but I guess Ricko couldn't know that then. But all Chryslers, Dodges, the Cadillac, the Ford GT, RS 200, Lancia Delta Integrale, Alfa Brera, Alfa 147 (not GTA), MG TF, MG 7, Lexus RX, Jaguar XK-SS etc etc were all models you don't get anywhere else.
The BMW M6 from Ricko is the Coupé while the herpa BMW M6 is the convertible...
and sadly I couldn't find the models for 1 or 2 Euros till now...

RPS have updated their site, at least he officially announces the Masterpiece models without pictures. They are also looking how far the development of the RAM 1500 has become...

Great pictures first ones of the Neo Prelude and Aston Martin V8 Vantage I see. The Aston Martins look great. And finally Japanese models from NEO

Actually Neo has some Japanese models of that area in the pipeline that will (or possibly will) also arrive in 1/87th scale like the 81 Honda Prelude, Datsun 260Z, 81 Mitsubishi Lancer Turbo, 82 Mitsubishi Sapporo Coupé, 79 Toyota Celica and 1986 Toyota Land Cruiser 70. The Prelude is already announced and the others will probably follow into this scale, as Neo seems to be ambitious to bring all their models also to 1/87th sooner or later...

In addition, it was listed that Schuco would produce a Porsche 928, Volvo C30 and Saab 9-5. Where was that listed?

I guess for Japanese models some of the Japanese companies would have to pick them up in 1:87. Make good marketing and the Japanese people will buy it haha

Well, I don't think that this is always the explanation. I would think that especially the Mercedes CLS was a success and the Mazda MX-5 was also (the Xedos 9 wasn't, which isn't surprising), as both models came in a variety of colors. But actually it would be interesting if herpa etc would share this information. It would give a great insight, like we have it for the real manufacturers...for example we know that the real VW Golf sells and the Scirocco and Phaeton don't...
And then there is always the question, what more colors would mean for the manufacturing costs (Not in re-run, but immediately). Why not make even fewer models per color, but more colors per model? I mean someone who is not interested in the Lexus for example will not buy it, or some still buy one ore two colors, but the ones who like that car a lot, will buy more. I have all three colors, but I would even buy more. It's the same with the Mercedes M-Class from Busch. I love the CMD colors but I have them for years already and I would want more colors, but are none...and the Mercedes M-Class promotional models have colors I don't like at all...or the Masterpiece Main Street Motors Plymouth and Ford that we in Germany only could buy in white...I'm sure more people would have bought one, if there would have been at least one color-choice.

The Camaro would be great, maybe someone should speak with GM again as the license regulations are from old GM. Maybe they have changed their mind...it's always nice to have dreams The upcoming Ford Focus ST could be sweet, it's not really American, but you soon have our Fords The Dodge Magnum would have been great...that's true. Although for Europe the Chrysler 300C Touring would have been the better choice.
