This week's FSW Weekly #34/2019 latest arrivals news PDF is here!

A reminder again that we are not here next week! Even the great unwashed are allowed a holiday once in a while.  Emails will be replied to as quickly as possible when we return on Monday September 2nd, likewise any orders and deliveries which have come through. If you’ve a payment request from us that isn’t paid yet and you’d like us to post before we close, they need dealing with before 1pm tomorrow UK time.

Last week we said that there would be more pre-owned kits being listed and they are now up and available to order. Among these are a number of Tameos and this coincides with a new delivery from Italy too, filling plenty of back orders, topping up our World Champions and accessory stocks and also including two new releases. In the recently acquired This Way Up range we see a reissue of the Wolf WR7 driven by James Hunt in Long Beach and Monaco, while under the SilverLine banner there is a well detailed kit of the Ferrari 312B2 from South Africa in 1972.

A useful addition to the spares box for builders of anything are Bare-Metal’s range of adhesive foils and home print decal sheets and we have a restock of these. Also new for kit builders, we have one plastic release this week in the shape of a works Mitsubishi Lancer from the 1984 RAC Rally, released by Beemax in 1:24. Sticking with rallying for a moment, there are several new releases in Trofeu’s limited edition national series with Escorts and Audis appearing alongside Cortina and Group A Sierra circuit racers. Ixo too has a new Group A release with an E30 M3. Minichamps offers plenty of variety for us this week with releases in both 1:43 and 1:18. There’s a great selection of single seaters in both scales with Michael Schumacher’s F3 Reynard, Senna Lotus and Williams in 1:18 and plenty of early Williams subjects in 1:43. There are GT BMWs in 1:43 too and in 1:18, an pretty classic Alfa GTAJ and the 2016 GTE class winning Ford from Le Mans.

 

Spark too sent over a large variety of new releases, all thirty of them in 1:43. These include Verstappen’s pre-season test Red Bull in unique livery, a great selection of classic Formula 1s with Hesketh, Ligier, Lotus, Fittipaldi, March and Benetton all represented,  Formula Es, WRC Citroens, WRX Peugeots, TCR and Pikes Peak VW Golfs and an IMSA Toyota. Slowing the pace a little, Neo has an interesting group of new road car releases offering classics from Europe and America and also looking back to the very early days motoring with a charming 1891 Mercedes delivery truck.

If you missed it, here is the last edition of FSW Weekly, the current Future Production listings, Sale Department and our Rarities Department too.

This weekend we look forward to some great action with MotoGP just down the road from us at Silverstone and plenty of club racing over the holiday weekend. On a wider stage, the WRC is in Germany, the vineyards of the Mosel region providing a stunning backdrop and plenty of challenges for the drivers. For tin-top fans there are Aussie Supercars and the DTM and there’s loads for endurance fans too with the Suzuka 10 hours and IMSA. Oh, there’s an Indycar race too!
