Spark Announcements

It’s Toy Fair time again. Time for the model companies to unveil their plans for the next year – or two – or three – or four.

Information on nearly 100 new offerings from Spark arrived first:

You can find the 1/43 Le Mans list HERE

Other 1/43 models that will receive encore production include 3 famous Ford GTs driven by Ken Miles:  His 1966 Le Mans Ford Mk.II and the 1966 Sebring and Daytona Ford GTs, driven to victory by Miles and Lloyd Ruby.

You can find the Spark Additional Production list HERE.

More than 30 models have been added to the 1/43 Spark advance order list that we posted yesterday. Unfortunately, suitable photos were not provided for most of the additions. We hope to add photos at a later date.
