Here are the latest estimates of models coming from Esval (for what it's worth):
1950 Mercury Leo Lyons Coupe - EXPECTED ARRIVAL: November 2018
1961 Cisitalia DF85 Coupe - same
1937 Duesenberg SJ Towncar - same
1949-50 Delahaye 135M Coup? by Guillor? - same
1951 GMC Series 100 5-Window pickup - same
2010 Porsche Cayenne 2 door Coup? by Merdad - same
1920-21 Pierce Arrow Model 32 7-Seat Limousine
- Spring, 2019
1971 Trident Venturer Sport Coupe - same
1934-41 Adler Trumpf Junior 2 door Sedan - same
So, a lot of new stuff that is jumping ahead of other planned releases. I assume the November releases will happen at least close to on-time. The spring releases, who knows. They have skipped several cars I was looking forward to. Hmmmmmmm

I know zero about Esval. What is the price range of 1:43. What other brand would it compare to in quality? Lastly, I like the 56 Olds but the rear window appears too small.

I want one of the Pierces, and the GMC pickup looks nice.
But I REALLY want to see that Mercer in the flesh!

They sell in the $100 range. Very high quality - similar to Matrix, IMO.

Jack, I believe that is a 55 Olds.

Thanks Bob; what is your take on the rear window size?

Love that Mercer! But, as with Matrix, too many obscure and ungainly subjects IMO.
And what's up with that Halloween Oldsmobile?

Disagree entirely, let's have more "obscure and ungainly"
subjects from Autocult, Esval and Matrix, the more the merrier.
