According to the MFH website these are the differences from the original release

based on the previous released "1/12scale Fulldetail Kit : Williams FW16 (K495/K496/K497)" kit with several changes -
- white metal parts in replacement of the original resin based part for the engine, extra aluminum turned parts, revision of certain parts/decal designs etc.
- decals featuring main sponsors printed by Cartograf.
- includes a figure of A. Senna in standing pose. Decals for helmet and suit also included.
- each kit comes with a metal plate with a unique serial number that marks it as one of the 200 limited units produced (the serial number provided will be random and is not influenced by the sequence of reservations/orders)

I wish they would re-issue some of the kits that sold out very quickly rather than start to make "Special Editions" of past kits.

They are rereleasing on a constant basis. I don't care if they call it rerelease or special edition what is nothing more than a corrected reissue...I'm happy with that.
I think it's more than amazing that there is a company releasing a new 1/12 kit and more every single month.

I think many people wil be happy to see FW16 kit re-release, even in form of special edition.
And I don't think it's feasible for MFH to re-release ALL of their kits, which are OOP. They have hundreds of kit in different scale in their catalog by now

So finaly it`s a corrected version where some flaws of the former release are fixed. Happy for those who get another chance to get this kit, but to me nothing that makes me getting this one, even as a Senna fan.
I will stick by a new 3D printer finaly, just waiting for some reviews of the new Saturn 4 Ultra to make a descision :)

I'm curious whether future decals will continue to be printed by cartograf.
