Is there anything new here or just re-releases? I recognize a lot from the past (F40, GTO, 2002, etc.), but not all.

Looking for an Aa now/waiting for them to release a revised version. I love the aggressive stance and the detailed engine, but I'm not a fan of pegs in the fog lights, fitment of the lights or the (very 1980s Italian xD) fitment of the doors.

Yeah, the pegs are disappointing. But here's a chance to get one at a reasonable price. I think AA would be great, but I don't even see it on their upcoming list so who knows when that'll happen.

Any idea what’s new/different on the Testarossa?

No paint rash in the first year.

Reasonable? How much are they wherever you live then? Here Kyoshos are hard to get and usually cost 200-250 USD with new Aa retailing at around 300 USD. That's not a minute difference, but (to me at least) the same price bracket as Aa and way past the reasonable price bucket.

I am betting on Aa re-releasing Countach solely because of their recent affection for all things Lambo and the release of Diablo SE30. Might as well be baseless, but I spend too much on models anyway and have a bit of life to live (I hope), so I'll wait

Fair enough point. At local retailers I'm seeing new Kyosho's going for about 220-240 CAD depending on the diecast. On ebay the cheapest AA Countach right now is over 400 CAD. Of course YMMV, but as it stands the price gap is quite large from my vantage as long as the Countach follows a similar price point as the other Kyosho's.

I too have high hopes for an AA release of the Countach, but that'll take some time since they haven't even mentioned it in any release yet. I'm still waiting for their C8 to finally be released. The 1:1 only came out 3 years ago. 🤨
