This post is more than a quarter-of-a-year late — hey, my posts are still trying to catch up with my collection — but I'm still gonna write it anyway, and you are reading it anyway. ^_^
I actually had no intention in getting any among the Ferrari-licensed 1:38 model line since they were practically the same with the earlier set I acquired, except for the addition of a dumb-remotely-controlling function that enables one to pre-program a set of movements that the pull-back toy will follow. But when my wife gave me 4 cars, I had no choice but to get the remaining 2 in order to complete the set. Yeah, talk about OCD. Besides, I'm still quite a Ferrari fan, so what the heck.
The 2010 line-up is as follows (seen in the photo above from top to bottom, left to right):
- Ferrari F2008
- Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano
- Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
- Ferrari 430 Scuderia
- Ferrari FXX Evoluzione
- Ferrari 360 GTC
Shell releases model cars like these roughly about once every year, so I'm willing to bet that another set will see the light of day before the year ends; and just to satisfy the completist nature of small-time collectors such as myself, I would have to get the entire set. Again.
I just hope that they include the Ferrari 458 Italia just to make things a bit interesting —
On a side note, if the red Ferrari in the Transformers: Dark of the Moon movie is indeed Hot Rod, I wouldn't bash Michael Bay nor any of his movies again. Ever. Or at least I would try my hardest not to.
Edit: It turns out that the Ferrari isn't Hot Rod. It's Mirage. ^_^

which brand r those Ferrari ???... the boxart is pretty neat, but if u ask me, my pampered for always is Lamborghini (if Enzo could hear me...) HAHAHA
If I can remember correctly, I believe these were made by Hot Wheels. :)
Yeah, I'd go for Lamborghini too! Their designs are getting better and better even after being acquired by VW. :)
