Yes I did , maybe I missed something but it looks more like a teaser vidio.

The bottom line is I can't afford the model and pictures are all be able to afford. I would imagine like everyone else on this forum they too would be fascinated by such an extreme model. I would think for the 20 grand it might convey a more detailed advertisement video .
The video was just a brief heavily shadowed run through with out much said. The model was described as highly detailed including engine, chassis, interior, essentially the full size morphed into a smaller scale.
I really hope this model will be shown on this sight, detailed with photos of the model.
Or maybe I am looking at the wrong one.
Thank you very much for your posting the video.

I see your point Mark you wrote: " video.....heavily shadowed ....with out much said"....

all the other references produced by a search yield the same images....the skeptic in me says RR is controlling any/all of the imagery and is reluctant to present clear details.......it brings to mind those darkly shot movies........the ones in which a viewer might conclude that costs were cut when it came time to properly flesh out the backgrounds
