Is it possible to get an “update kit” for those of us who purchased your original kit, or will the body be updated also? Realistically, I image you’ve probably updated most every part

Last week, I was on Facebook and under some pics of Gordy someone said they always wanted a Wildcat Model. Of course. I looked at hobbitime.shop and didn't see it mentioned so I said nothing.
Sorry! :-( MJ

Here is a sneak peek of the test fitting process of the 1/25 1982 Wildcat VIIIB. I figured out how to make my own investment castings for the white Metal parts. I've spent a lot of time into trying to make this kit fit well and look right. This is a VERY important car to me. Release date for this kit is coming VERY soon.....

I've been using Apoxie Sculpt a lot lately and it's absolutely AWESOME! I'm currently sculpting my 1982 Wildcat windscreen buck out with it. You can get it off amazon.... I highly recommend it for any model builder, especially resin builders as this stuff WONT shrink and is sandable after it cures....

For the fluorescent areas I recommend Mr. Hobby Dayglo Red Semi Gloss - I've had it with TS36 - too unpredictable. I've used the Mr. Hobby on a few subjects now and I really like it.
