F1's on the Horizon

enigma101 · #1 10-12-2002, 09:28 AM

Saw this link on "another forum:"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1776442431

Nope, I'm not the sole bidder but at least it's a sign that the F1's are nearly here. Curious that the seller is offering the Ferrari prior to the others since it's not due for release until late Nov. (vs. late Oct for the other F1's).

If nothing else, I thought any fellow F1 fanatics would be interested in the Ferrari pics at the site. Man, it looks hot!

Actually up at the top on the heading it say PRE SELL, and further down in the description it says;

Yep, I noted that but I wonder why he's "pre-selling" the Ferrari and not the other models? Well...at least yet.

Thanks for the release date update, Usagi. I thought from the Konami site that the Ferrari wasn't coming out until November, a little later than the October release date for the other F1 models. If I remember correctly, you were not impressed by the little F1's. Any specifics on what you didn't like about them? Thanks in advance for any further insight.

They will be shown this week........and the release date will be defined for a true date. But I really need to see these things in person. What this guy is saying is over blown.

Let us know when you see the F1's, Usagi. I'm still hot for a Ferrari.

According to "Rainbow Ten" the first 4 F1 cars will be released the 24th this month (in two days). The Ferrari will be released the 21st of December.

xsracer · #14 10-22-2002, 09:10 AM

Actually, I think the release dates changed. Both, separate cars and kits will be released on Nov 7th. Ferrari car and kit will be released on Nov 21st.
