There are a couple there that I might just pick up, especially the Cuda.

Saw this at Powerslotcars.....

I'll have that Abarth for sure.

Renault wagon and Cuda for me please...

Abarth is a definite. I thought they were redoing the Gulf livery. But this is even better.

Anyone in the USA ordered stuff from Top Slots 'n Trains recently? I'd love to place an order for the #62 'Cuda and can't find it on any websites on this side of the Atlantic.

What would this price £32.99 and shipping be to the USA (east coast)?

$31.48USD delivered for the Cuda to the USA.... simply add it to the basket and go to the checkout, select your region (USA) and it'll give you a price.

And if they actually make the Cuda it's a must have for me.... along with the very lovely Abarth.

And remember VAT doesn't apply for international customers.

I failed to currency convert - $52USD shipped is the final amount......

Probably less if sourced from one of the dealers in USA.....

Thanks for the help regarding cost. When I did the post I didn't realize you could do the conversion and get shipping info before actually submitting an order. The cost is reasonable, I'm just hesitant to do the preorder without knowing when to expect shipment. Once upon a few years ago I used to go to the Pioneer website EVERYDAY expecting to see the "coming soon' Camaros and Legends become reality. I still haven't seen them in a single US hobby store or listed as 'in stock' on a US website.

Since then preorders make me real nervous.

And you are VERY smart to wait. That Cuda was posted last year as well and did not show up.

If it comes to our side of the pond to my dealers I'll grab it then.

Thanks for confirming my sense of caution regarding preorders in the slot car world.

I did a lot of Internet window shopping yesterday and found another livery of the Scalextric Cougar at Electric Dreams - the black and red #14. I prefer that one to the red/pink/whatever #98 Dan Gurney livery, but it's a preorder too. Any word on when that will be released?

FYI - as I fill out my Trans Am stable I only want one car per actual driver. Once I got the Gurney #2 Mustang from Pioneer I traded away the SCX #48 Gurney 'Cuda. Dan Gurney was a great driver and the cars he raced are deserve to be popular, but I'd rather see Gurney racing Savage, Posey, and Parnelli on my track that have Gurney racing Gurney. Anyone have an idea how many Gurney Trans Am liveries there are these days?

It is going to be a few months at least before you see the new Cougar. That is a planned release for 2014 and could come late in the year.

The Cuda is not coming that I know of.
