Well Hi All,BigGrin

This is a new release from Deagostini on a scale I`ve never seen before. Woot

No, its not new new, but at 1:6 scale its big and new in this scale.

WELCOME the 1:6 scale Shelby Mustang GT500.

Some features:

91cms in length

Remote control functions

I`ll let you find out the rest via this link:

www.deagostini.com/uk/sc...els/mustang-shelby-gt500

No "Official Build" as such (several model versions been built before), but I will be building this on my own account to show you what its all about.

No time line for the start as its on pre-order only at this time.


Will update ASAP.

Hope you have a large house. That will be one monster of a kit.

Will be interested to see how the build progresses.

One question, How many issues to complete the build?

WOW!! That is some big model.
Unfortunately the website does not offer the car as a Full Kit purchase.
I am not clever enough to work out the part payments, plus all the handling and shipping to arrive at a final price, although I can't see how many packs there are in total anyway? Probably just me though.
Does anyone have an idea what the final cost will be?

Hi Chris, BigGrin

Standard subscription comes to £1692.62 that includes binders and P+P

Premium subscription comes to £1848.87 as above and including the base and cover.

Monthly highest payment for 5 issues of which there will be 24:

Standard subscription is £64.95

Premium subscription is £71.20

That`s as long as my pork sausage fingers have pressed all the correct buttons, which I think they have.Blink

Hope that helps.

Thanks Derek,
That is a hell of a car but the price is just too rich for me I'm afraid.
Maybe if I bought a lottery ticket....

Wow. It’s big and expensive. Don’t understand why they have gone this way when initially a 1.8 was available and a lot of builders bought it. It’s big and METALIC Green, only difference I see quickly. Would have been better producing a different model to lure in new business. Only my thoughts, I’ll stay with my Blue one. Andy.
