PS02 from FW24 ?

Post by lezdep »

Here is interesting idea for conversion - http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e83200606" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I'm not sure if those decals were ever announced in the forums. Looks like body is quite similar.
Front and rear wings are different. Otherwise may be not that difficult.

Brilliant!! :)
I love these ideas to show up. Another good one was Renault R23 from FW24. I am sure there are some more of them that we don't even notice...

Possible indeed, rearwing not much diffirent, so only front wing.
But also engine airintake and rear body are quit diffirent.
But nothing I would worry about in a conversion like this.

decal set never made it (and never will) to official st27 catalogue and was at first only offered to the public on some japanese hobby show(s). Then items became available for top 10 dealers, and only recently they were offered to all retailers on 1-time-only base (like to take credits for this) without wholesale discount (would not like to take credtis for this), so this explains why more scarce and more expensive as regular stuff.

Next to this set (PS02 minardi as driven by webber yoong davidson), there are also sets released for
- lotus 102 camel 1990 (herbert warwick)
- TEAM PACIFIC PR01 B192 (BERTRAND GACHOT, PAUL BELMONDO 1994 EARLY SEASON MODEL)
- JORDAN 191 SASOL (modena & gugelmin)

Same story:
- rossi MOTO GP bikes 07
- rossi MOTO GP bikes 08 catalunya
- casey stoners ducati Moto GP 07
- rc211V moto gp07 & winter test 08

Well, they have been sent over last week, so should be in store next week (if no customs/holidays delay etc)...
The lotus 102 & team pacific set are in store for 10 days now.
