If anyone has a store that they can get ahold of Shelby diecasts and they find the SS or the KR let me know as I'd like both. Hopefully they'll release them in different colors, such as black. Not sure of exactly when they're supposed to be released, but the pictures of them are awesome.

 

The 1/18 scale models of those cars will be out sometime this year at www.shopshelby.com

As will the 1/64 scale.

Stay tuned...

 

Hey William, I heard that the SS and the KR (along with the new 2008 S-GT Coupe and Vert in Vista Blue) should be out sometime in February. On a diecast forum, there are pics of the SS and the KR and they do look really good! They got the wheel size correct and the ride height of the cars seems spot on as well. Can't wait to see more pics of these. Definitely going in the collection ASAP!!

 

Jeff, could you post a link of that forum?

Thanks.

 

Yeah I'd like to see more pics than just the two I've seen.

 

 

Where did you get the SS and the KR from? They aren't even on Ebay yet? Please let me know ASAP, as I gotta get these for my office!

 

I think I'll wait for AutoArt.

 

Zoran, your going to wait for a LONG TIME, as Autoart aren't making these cars. They are making the Saleen 281 SC Coupe and Vert and the PJ car, and the GT California Special. But no KR and no SS. Sorry bud.

 

D@mn it.

I saw Shelby Collectible's Shelby GT500 and it's horrible (Shelby GT is pretty good, I have it).

I hope new models will look better than old ones.

 

Was that the first release you saw? The later release with the correct wheels are much better.

 

Yeah, it was first release.

But for the same price I will go with AutoArt instead of Shelby Collectible.

 

Topnotch where'd you get them already?

 

The rear wheel on the SS doesn't look right. And those pics are probably just stock pics, not actually from topnotch...
They look pretty good though, given the generally sh!tty picture quality
