Good news if you ask me. We don't need two manufactures doing the same kit in plastic. This has been tried before and it was not a succes.
There are an almost endless number of other cars to do. So please do that instead.

Unfortunate but hoping that the effort already expended will be re-directed to something we all will want to buy.

There should be an independent and confidential governing body of modelling, maybe called FIM, and when a manufacturer starts to think about modelling a subject they register their intent and are then told if they are treading on anyones toes.

And I think that's the real reason Fujimi why cancelled their own release. I don't know for sure, but Fujimi's whole intention
might have just been to try to scare Aoshima away. Still, I hope Fujimi wouldn't stop developing new releases and release some
other great Formula 1 car subjects.
