I think you're SOL... at least in 1/24 scale... there are a couple 1/18 diecast, IIRC.

So, start saving/hunting for the S27 kit... :eek:

Profile 24 and Studio 27 are the only current companies doing 1:24th McLaren GTR's. Sakatsu (or was it Modellers?) did the Ueno Clinic version and that is what P24 used as their master. P24 is a pretty hard kit to build (for the price). My S27 is a thing of beauty! Those machined wheels are art.
Sorry,

It was Modeler's which made the McLaren first. S27 bought the master, and reissued it in several different teams. If P27 used the Modeler's as a master, they are all essentially the same body, then.

Gotcha. Sakatsu did the CLK...anyways. P24 looks to be a copy of a short tail S27 (which is based on the Modeler's short tial). I'm guessing the current S27 long tail is also based on the original Modeler's body? If so, that original master has gotten around 8-)>
