RE: -->> Tamiya's future releases <<--

Sounds awesome!!  Hey, if you have that kind of pull with Tamiya, maybe
you could get them to make some 1/24 scale plastic model kits of
audis.....  an 86  5KTQ with detailed engine and driveline would be
perfect!  The only Audi plastic model kits I have found (in 1/24 scale)
are by Fujimi and strictly curbside models - no engine, trans,
driveline.  I have made the Fujimi Audi 80 and it looks nice but didn't
have much fun building it.

I eagerly await Tamiya's new releases...
