New Model Announcements: Leyland P76 + ShowTime C10 & E30 + 'DNA' of ZB, Mustang GT, FGX + More
We have a really cool, diverse and interesting range of future model releases which we're excited to announce are in development for collectors and are now available to pre-order at stockists or register your interest for on our website.
2023 marks the 50th Anniversary of the release of the Leyland P76 and what better way to celebrate this special, polarising and historically significant Australian road car than to announce that we're replicating the flagship Targa Florio version in scale model form.
The Leyland P76 represents a truly unique time in a golden era of Australian motoring culture where a big rival to local heavyweights Holden and Ford quickly appeared, delivering a car that in many cases could be argued was vastly superior to the competition, and then disappeared just as quickly due to a variety of circumstances.
The P76 is a car that has a dedicated following of die-hard enthusiasts and the Targa Florio oozes 'old school cool'. It's simply an iconic car that we're really excited to replicate to our high standards for collectors.
Currently in development and scheduled to be produced in 1:18 scale high detail sealed body with clear windows, faithfully replicated interior and fine finishing throughout, the first edition of the P76 Targa Florio coming from us will be in the Omega Navy colour scheme with more colours to be announced and produced in due course. As with all our 1:18 scale models, it will be produced in an exclusive limited edition production run and will come with an individually numbered certificate of authenticity.

Our next two model announcements are really exciting and should appeal to both custom car enthusiasts and fans of the Supercars Championship, the Repco ShowTime C10 and Widebody E30.
Both models replicate the real heavily modified custom cars which many fans would likely have seen at various Supercars events across the country in recent years and were produced by the Kustom Garage brand from the team at ShowTime FMX.
Both cars are really incredible and represent a dedication to creating exceptionally cool, customised performance cars and we're excited to be bringing that same passion in creating both models for collectors, scheduled to be produced in 1:18 scale high detail sealed body.
The C10 will feature some incredible details, notably the bar work in the tray and will also feature a removable bonnet to display the engine underneath while the E30 has some fine exterior details along with clear windows and detailed interior.
Both models will feature fine finishing throughout and also represent some really cool future release possibilities for us moving forward that fans of custom vehicles and cool model releases should stay tuned for moving forward!
In the meantime, these two future model releases will be a nice point of difference for collections.

Moving on, in recent times we have announced and released some really great special edition models in collaboration with some respected and talented designers that collectors have loved and we're proud to announce a new range which should be really appealing to Holden, Ford and Supercar fans.
We first released a 'DNA' model a number of years ago when we asked respected motorsport designer Peter Hughes to design a VF Commodore celebration livery for us which we released (and has been sold out for a long time now) in 1:18 scale.
Due to various reasons we never got around to releasing that model in 1:43 scale or doing a similar DNA of FGX version in 1:18 or 1:43 at the time - which many have requested we do. So, we are! And with the recent end of the Gen2 era in Supercars we've also worked with fantastic designers to produce Ford Mustang GT and Holden ZB Commodore editions for collectors too.
We're thrilled to announce that the master of livery design and motorsport art Peter Hughes has once again joined us on this project, producing a stunning DNA of ZB Commodore celebration livery design that features a liquid silver base with black and red elements which looks super tough.

To produce the DNA of FGX celebration model we reached out to respected livery designer and applicator Tim Pattinson who has created a vast portfolio of livery designs across Supercars and wider motorsport in general over the years and he really delivered the goods with his fantastic, predominantly blue design that we're sure Ford fans are going to love.

And finally, our very own head of all things creative here at Authentic Collectables, renowned designer/illustrator Tristan Groves has created a DNA of Mustang celebration livery that has a real wow factor that Mustang fans won't want to miss.

Each of the DNA models above not only feature the amazing liveries produced by the three individual designers but also include the records achieved by each model on the roof and additional details. Each 1:18 scale DNA model will come with an individually numbered certificate of authenticity signed by the designer of the model.
They're great future releases for all collectors, especially those with Supercar collections or fans of the impressive works of each of the designers.
