Here a lighten photo:

Seems to be a sportscar?

If this in bottom-center of the photo is an airbox, it is similar to alpine a442 1978. :o

Hope for a tipo 33 alfa, but...

Let's the saga begins.

To me it appears as a version of a Porsche flat engine. I think the thing that looks like a wheel rim is the fan shroud???

Oh well, my vote would be for a 917-10.

Regards,

Joe.

You gave me chills, then I started thinking about all the cf work and the chills turned into fear shivers.

i don't think there are too many exposed carbon fibers in F1....depending on color scheme or if it is a racing version.
i think it will be super fun to build a mclaren f1 LM version.

Talking about 1/12 McLaren F1 GTR LM version, only if MFH fix the front lamp cover error, and a more robust top door hinge to the door, and much better door alignment.

The 1/24 version is such a pain, after spent so much effort and time, full detail version turns out to be a more of toy-like compared to the curb ST 27 version. :twisted: :(
Unacceptable!

I'd say MFH have effectively ruined the guessing Game based on the fact that there have been no new posts in over 24 hours. Nice work MFH!!!

They taken out the "fun" that's for sure.Maybe they need to refocus.Also returning to 1/20 scale would give them a boost..Not much movement in 1/20 so it is a good moment to do so..

Well, we were so proud of ourselves, that we could guess the cars from the first picture.
Then they upped the game and showed us :-)
Maybe they need to dial it back a little and give us a better chance again...
