Please keep in mind that if anything like this will be release now the MSRP will be significantly higher, especially for the US market. This statement based on the MSRP price increase of all Corgi models for 15-25% back in the second part of 2002, and dramatically price increase on UK range after those model become unavailable for distribution on the US market by Corgi US and current low US Dollars exchange rate.
