Green box, bottom-left:
"Developing 'That one vehicle' you can not leave out when discussing rotary engine, or Japanese race cars." Rough translation, but you get the idea.
While they blurred it pretty effectively with mosaic, that's a 787B amirite. What's a famous Japanese race car with rotary engine? I know next to nothing about racing, but it's gotta be.... The lone Japanese car ever to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans - Mazda 787B.
Here's what the Kyosho version looked like.
Indeed, I am getting my hopes up. :D

Well, we were right! TLV Mazda 787B is coming in September!
Unfortunately, like every TLVs lately, it cost even more than expected. $80(or 8,000 yen). I preordered mine from amiami for roughly $60. It's crazy, but I expect this to sell out soon after its release. Maybe even before that, during the preorder phase. Anyway, if you plan on getting it, don't wait too long.
P.S. Tomytec page linked above says that this is the first of the three models to be released. They didn't spell out that they are releasing all three, but that sure seems to be their plan. I can't wait to do a side-by-side feature of this guy with the AUTOart & Kyosho when the time comes!
