And with a full BR paintjob as part of a box set? I can only hope but I have a feeling we will never see it.

I see the box states, "235 mm," (9.25 inches to us Yankees.) Personally, I'm saving up for the Randy Cooper version.

Very cool!
Does anyone know for sure if this is a dressed up Medicom?
I just measured mine pretty carefully and it's ~242mm or 9 1/2". I guess the measurements given on HLJ could be approximate. Hard to see what the interior looks like.
If it is a redressed Medicom, that price is incredibly good! It would be hard to find an unconverted "Future Car" for that price!

EDIT: Pre-ordered one. Couldn't stand not ordering at the early bird price.

VERY tempting... it's true that the price is very attractive for a finished model of this size... but the interior looks rather naked, 100% similar to their former "Future car" version.

I think I'll wait for Randy Cooper's model instead, just like Bwood.

Well I got note that it was delivered today to my front porch at 12:45pm, but when I got home at 4pm it was no where to be seen. I can't even express how disappointed I am now. I know it is partially my fault because I signed the door tag. Usually my housemates bring this stuff inside for me, but none were around today. Since I am currently between jobs this is a huge blow to me. I am tempted to buy another anyway before they start selling for double-triple, but I need keep my money in savings until I can start my new job next year. This was the only Christmas present I was really looking forward too. If anybody gets one they are willing to trade for, please let me know. I have a ton of BR extras for sale or trade.

Mine arrived by UPS on Thursday and I was tempted to leave it sealed til I realised itwas only in a celophane bag that had scotch tape holding it shut so I had it out. Its a thing of beauty!
