Maybe I missed the announcement. If that's the case please excuse me.
I noticed on the Spot Model emails I get that MFH is re-releasing the Hybrid 312T4. I have both kits so I don't need another but I thought that someone here might find this news welcoming.

Interesting. Far amount of plastic kits for 1979. The big one missing would be the RS10.

I still think that was one of the best of their 1/20 kits. And I don't understand why they stopped and won't make any more hybrid kits.
RS10, RS01 and other cars done same way would have been amazing.

I agree!!
If you remember there was quite some delay with the release of the T4. I would guess that this was due to whoever supplied the diecast chassis and the injection molded parts. With MFH business plan changing and almost being singularly focused on 1/12th these days they seem to have no desire to be held hostage by a supplier. I can't say I blame them but it is we that suffer from a lack of a more reasonably priced kit in the Hybrid kits.

mmm, i asked MFH about a re-release, they replied they had 2 in stock of monaco version. Does not sound like a re-issue to me.

I realize there are people who feel like they have their finger on the pulse of all things they are interested in but you my friend are wrong
it is listed as a pre order and it is NOT the Monaco version.
