Ugh more things to spend money on LOL. But yes finally a very decent selection of Bentley's. Also I wonder how it will be packaged since there are only 15 models. The Flying Spur and the Turbo R would be my choices! |

What an amazing set! Thank you for posting this. With how great this lineup of cars is for me, it is a shame that this is the set Kyosho decided to cut back on color variations. Argh! |

Those all appear to very nice models - kind of wish a couple of the offerings would have been more vintage type offerings from Bentley. |

I just requested a case, crossing my fingers that they don't sell out before the order is placed. I think this a breath of fresh air for Kyosho collectors. With the last few releases being redone models, it's nice to see another all new set and Bentley is a great choice. That GT3 is amazing. After the GT3, I'm most excited about the Arnage T and Turbo R. The Mulsanne and Flying Spur are also nice additions that no one has tackled yet. I would have loved to have seen some classic Bentley's particularly the ones following, but I'm still glad to see Bentley getting some much needed 1/64 attention. 1952 Continental R-Type ![]() Or even better, the R-Type "Gooda" Special Coupe (Probably my personal favorite Bentley) ![]() Continental R LeMans Coupe ![]() Or a Blower Bentley ![]() Here's to hoping the line is a huge success for Kyosho and that they do a Series 2!

Yannick at 829 Japan might be able to get them for you, that's who I'm using if he can order them (which shouldn't be an issue, but has been with Ferrari's in the past). The price he quoted me for a case of 15 was 12000 yen plus shipping. I'll have extra of 7 of them, assuming there aren't any duplicated or missing cars in the case. |

No Problem Guys, Im Loving all of them. I'd love to see some older Azure's etc, But I love the choices in this set. I know Ferrari is up in the air with Kyosho right now, but I do feel there is room for a lot more manufacture's. I'm still hoping for a Rolls Royce set, Maserati II, Jaguar, Lamborghini Spyder's and Land Rover! I hope this set gets Rolls to Budge on 1/64 even though I know RR and Bentley Split long ago.

So, if this is the result of Kyosho having no Ferrari license any more, then it is a nice one. |

Well, this is something different and exciting! I always hoped that a Turbo R of that vintage would appear in 1/64 scale someday. This goes to say something about Kyosho's quality - I understand Bentley's license is hard to get (someone mentioned Rolls Royce above, and I've heard RR absolutely forbids licensed 1/64 because they feel it cheapens the brand). |

They go on sale Feb 17th. There's also a special matte black version of the Continental GT Supersports which can be bought on it's own or separately. |

That's the release date, and approximately when preorders should start shipping, as well as about when the sets should start showing up in Circle K stores, but February 17 is when preorders open up on Circle K's website (which you have to live in Japan to order from): http://ckec.jp/pc/00000003/goods2/30150112564/ |
