I think they screwed the pooch with the roofline. You be the judge. I pulled up a 60 Edsel to compare and its way off in my opinion. Hope they fix it by production time.photo no longer available

Hasty judgments on pre-production pics can be a mistake but this BOS looks like a vintage 1/25 promo ...you know, the ones that warp!

Agreed. The rear portion of the roofline is messed up. Curious what colour(s) it will be offered in.

Not good. I immediately noticed the roofline & greenhouse were wrong.

I hope it's offered in a colour other than Seafoam Green. It'd be stunning in Turquoise (non-poly).

Why would it be posted on BoS's Facebook page then ?

BoS replied to my comments about a roof, said they know its not correct and it will be corrected on the production model. How nice to have a manufacturer listen and make changes.

If that is the case, I may be buying my first 1:18!
