Generally they’ll be double the cost. I’ve pre ordered from www.hlj.com Jon I’ve also ordered some of the new hasegawa kits as they still aren’t in the country yet. I’ve still got 4 tamiya kits to do as well. I’ve also contacted blue stuff decals to see if they are going to do the export 2 and 3 stripe decals so you can have a European colour Lc they are going to let me know. If they don’t I may get made some decal sheets from a different company thing is it’ll cost me a small sum then to recoup I’ll sell them but they’ll probably be £12-15 a set. They do one offs as well for about £30 pr sheet was tempted to look at a KR decal sheet as well as a speed block but not sure of the market

Double it. Not a fan of die cast kits myself but it does look rather good.

Dear all,
I am new to motorcycle models but I do have quite a few die-cast military aircraft.
I am looking for a circa 1979 Kenny Roberts 1:12 YZR500 (speed block yellow) and I would really appreciate your guidance regarding where to buy and how much is a reasonable price.
Many Thanks
Geoff

Tamiya do a kit. I've made one. Very good indeed but I've not come across a diecast version. Alex

350 decal is on wrong.

ps not sure what kit that is but the mirrors are wrong and the seat is too. Saying that I had to sand my seat smooth (Tamiya kit).

I can't get the site to work Tim. I tried looking at Tamiya only and I get all sorts of kits from other companies. Doing my head in. And there seems to be no cars or bikes listed but some pop up occasionally.
