I have heard that the fab guys at Kyosho was producing the M4 F82 for release in Q1/2 2015.

And no manufacturer has announced that they are producing the M3 F80 or M4 F83 yet...

BMW/MINI are a nightmare because I have had the BMW and MINI Diecast website pages open for the last 6 months and they don't bother to update there website.

I don't suppose you could lead me to where you got the release info from please as I also need to check if there are any new MINI models?

What ever happened to Munchen who used to release all the info for all to see?

It was mentioned on a popular HK seller's facebook page.
Paragon are also behind the 1/18 i8 and GT Spirit will be making the F32 in 1/18 for release in Feb.

Yeah BMW are atrocious when it comes to updating the miniatures on their official page. It's really funny when dealer ed. models appear on other sites before on BMW's official webpage!

And new in Spring 2015 will be the 1/43 F36 4er Gran Coupe with M Sport Packet.

If you don't mind, let us know how that turns out, arvin .. I located them at a UK vendor .. they sell for £4.00 (EUR 5.05) but shipping is £17.15 (Ouch!). I'd love to pick up one in each colour to add to my collection! Thanks! http://www.ebay.ie/itm/BMW-FUNCAR-PU...item6fe25dd87c

^^I think that is for the ENTIRE box of cars! At the BMW Welt they sell these tiny pull back - racers. They also have a little magnet in them. They sell for 5 euros each at the Welt. Kind of "funny" how they make a blue model when they never made that "blue" on the 1M. They only made a few in MCB for the very special select few.

They are £3.00 each in the UK Dealerships and €3.90 each in German Dealerships, there are 40 in a box so £120.00 for a full box of 40.

It all comes down to whether or not a local BMW Dealership Parts Department orders a set for them selves.



BMW Lifestyle
http://shop.bmw.com/INTERSHOP/static...l_14_16_DE.pdf

A lot of the BMW Dealership Parts Departments in the UK will not even bother to order them in because they come in a box of forty, depending on which Parts Departments person I speak to depends whether or not they will even bother to do a UK search or even check if they can get any other Diecast models from Germany.

A lot of BMW/MINI Parts Departments workers are not interested because it is just a part number to them, I had a chap that used to order all my models for me as I always had the part numbers ready beforehand for him.
Sadly he has just left his job after 28 years.

My local dealership has 28 of the 1:100th Orange, Blue and White BMW 1 Series M Coupes in stock and I am going there tomorrow to get the 3 different colours, I am also picking up some 1:64th Mini Pacemans as they have them in stock as well.

BMW and MINI are both on eBay in the UK although in reality it is only BMW/MINI of Park Lane in London, they have the 1:64th Pacemans on eBay but they are so lazy they will not even let you order one of each colour.

Hey guys,

Dealership here in Toronto called me back and said they can't order any unfortunately due to the paint on the toys. There is apparently some sort of block regulation on it??? Sounds weird.

Anyway, ronster/1mian, would you guys be interested in 1 of each color? Diamondblackcars is willing to purchase them in the UK and ship them to me. I can then ship them out to you guys separately.

They are £3.00 each. So that would be £9.00 for each of you if you want all 3 colors.

Let me know as soon as you can.

'Block regulation'?! That does sound odd .. arvinz, you're awesome to offer to do this for us .. yes sir, I'd like very much to order one in each of the 3 colours @ £3.00 each/£9.00 for the set! Thanks to Diamondblackcars also for making it all happen (from across the pond)!
