Nice, but a shame.
Just a different colour scheme for an already existing kit. They did the same with the Aventador, and eventually they were cut-price everywhere.

Beautiful bike though I'm sure it will still sell. Wonder if Paul Koo will make another upgrade kit for it? Or maybe the one he has out will fit?

Looks a nice kit, though as you say Roy, same as original release just different scheme. Think I prefer the first release for looks.

Its the same kit just a new box and paint scheme.

It's exactly what they did with the Aventador kit... A few different schemes - and they still ended up discounted everywhere.
I know it involves expense, but a NEW kit would go down far better. At one point there was the hopes of the Merc 300SL. Sadly it never happened. Why don't they go with the Ford GT40...?
It looks as if the part-work isn't going to happen but some (much?) of the kit design is in place. Is it a no-hoper?

It’s nice but I think it would have been far better to launch a brand new kit rather that the same in a different colour guise. It’s exactly what diluted Aventador sales by flooding the market with too many colour choices of the same model, then having to heavily discount to move the stock.

Would have been better if they had done a 1/4 Diavel

Have to agree with others that a completely new kit would have been better but it does look great in those colours Al

Any idea where the picture came from? A friend of mine is very interested but can find no information, anywhere. Even Pocher aren't advertising it.

Ha found it, not getting one as its a re-box and not a re-tool, I could make mine into one really easily. https://shop.autographmodel.com/Pocher-1-4-model-kit-HK110-Ducati-1299-Panigale-S-Anniversario

They should have brought that option at the beginning, may have been a better seller Al
