Meanwhile, a kind of an update.

I've done some work on the two Platz kits. Just appreciating the kits and cleaning up some parts so far. I'm going to build the 1979 version box-stock in the Numero Reserve livery due to the real car's shady nature. The 1980 version will feature some extra detail bits and will be more of a "what if I had a real one in the garage" kind of build.

Then, I got an e-mail from my favorite 1/18th scale die-cast source for this:






Its the 935 K3 again in the 1980 config and with my favorite Porsche livery, an orange Buzz Bomb.

The die-cast is by Solido in 1/18th scale. It only features opening doors and turning front wheels (and a price lower than standard die-casts in this scale) but I had a good experience with their purple Legacy Austin Mini and quickly placed my order.

This was the same livery I was considering for the second Platz kit so I'm still not sure how I'll build the smaller model.
