Will they remake the Frog Jumper body, Mr. Frog Jumper? I think that's what everyone wants to know.

[bRIBEGuy]

Oh how I miss Faskolor!

They have a huge back catalogue of GREAT bodies.  Hopefully they still have the means to make them... I can think of quite a few that I'd love to see again.

Excellent news! Parma bodies were never the most detailed things around, but they were sure prolific, and had a huge variety. And Faskolor is still the best Lexan paint of all time. I'll be very happy to be able to get some again.

Great!

This is great news!  I sold my unpainted lexan Lunchbox a few years ago and regretted it.  I have another unpainted one in my storage but it doesn't belong to me, it's part of a lot that I need to sell.  However knowing they're going to be around for a bit longer means I can justify buying it for myself at a not-too-extortionate price

Besides Lunchbox, they also used to make a polycarbonate Clod body

Yeah they just added it. Hopefully we'll see more additions....as mentioned Parma weren't the most detailed bodies, but they were specific to the model and got the job done. BITD I alwys tried to run a Parma body and keep the hard shells nice for display.

Wow! These cars was so fast so you can't really understand if you not have raced with them.

[RyantheRed]

Oh man the short course bodies! I have one in the cart but the website is so clunky... dont know if i want to put my credit card info in there. Lol.

[Nikko85]

Any idea what the final price to UK would be, once you add in shipping, handling fees and taxes?

I've realised that lexan Pumpkin would suit my needs perfectly but it might end up too pricy.
