Wasn't this thread supposed to be about the new Scalextric and Policar releases? :?
As far as Cincyslots goes, I like the site just the way it is. Ordering via email or telephone lets you personally contact the person behind the business. It's a personal touch that allows you to build a relationship of sorts that simply does not exist on sites with live stock and shopping carts, as in those cases you are simply a faceless account number. And I'd like to add that Cincyslots is run by a hell of a guy who cares about the hobby and his customers. Ordering from him is more like buying from a fellow hobbyist and an actual person, rather than from some company on the internet.
Now, back to the original crux of this thread- That Escort looks pretty. It's great to see Scalextric's new releases do not yet incorporate that half-tray interior that they had previously announced. I wonder how far off that is, not that I'm thrilled at seeing it hit market. In my opinion, the classic full interior and sidewinder is one of the defining marks of a Scalextric release.
