Does anybody know anything about a 1/8 scale Beetle model made by Maggiolino Hachette? I've googled it but can't find any definitive information on this model. Is it still made,if so where can I find one. Thanks.

It was a subscription model that ended this year. You can still buy them from the hachette website. I bought a load of the editions used but the parts had long been removed.

i went on that site but I think it's in Italian. I'll buy this kit if I can find all of the individual packets. The site only show 9 packets but somebody on eBay has packets numbered up to 14. I'm going to dig until I find this thing. Thanks for the info,greatly appreciated.

From what I understand the kit has been discontinued.
