Spark, a leading model manufacturer has announced several Indy winners in their 2012 line of 1/43rd scale built models. Last year they did the Lotus 56s' and they were quite nicely done at a reasonable price. I'll post the complete list when I get a chance.

Cool. Thanks for the info. Spark's quality has really improved over the years. Plus, they have shown a tendency to do some interesting cars in recent years such as classic Can-Am and Group C cars. I'm really interested to see which cars they produce. Maybe they'll also do some non-winners. I can think of several cars I'd like to see them make.
Here are the 1/43 Indy 500 winners listed on the MotorsportCollector website that Spark has scheduled:
S2975 Lotus 38, No.82, Winner Indy 500 1965 Jim Clark $69.25
S2976 Lola T90, No.24, Winner Indy 500 1966 Graham Hill $69.25
S2977 Eagle Mk4, No.3, Winner Indy 500 1968 Bobby Unser $69.25
S2978 McLaren M16B, No.66, Winner Indy 500 1972 Mark Donohue $69.25
S2979 Chaparral, No.4, Winner Indy 500 1980 Johnny Rutherford $69.25
I hope to add the Hill, Clark and Donohue cars to my collection.
This is awesome by the way.
I love converting Minichamps stuff, but if we could get some 80's and 90's cars from Spark... I'd die!
