Thread: New Lotus Carousel for `03

    New Lotus Carousel for `03

    Did anyone else get the flyer from Carousel 1? They're going to issue a series of Lotuses, starting w/ Clark's 1965 Lotus 38.

    No other specific cars are mentioned, althoughthe flyer showed pics of Foyt's `65, Jones' `65, Clark's `63, Gurney's `65, Unser's `66, and one of the turbines.

    I'd personally like to see Marshman's `64.

    The Turbine that I mentioned is Leonards #60. Again, they were just photos, so who knows which exact models Apollo will release.

    The pic shows the race version with the yellow wheels , but doesn't say which version the die-cast will be.

    The good news is ( if they release all the Lotus' pictured ) now I can have a 1/18 '65 Foyt car , the bad news is the Coyote's I've already pre-ordered are being pushed back to '03 ( Spring for the '67 , Fall for the '77 ) .

    You can guarantee that if one is released the others will be released. The tooling costs are ridiculous for these things. The more opportunities to recoup the costs the better.

    We need to register a bunch of folks up for a bulk order. Maybe we could trade 'em free ads here at TF for a member discount?

    We're getting about 8000 separate individuals per week, and I'd think they're a highly likely target for this stuff?
