Why no Dino Ferraris from modern 1/32 manufacturers

From my racing days of old I remember having a Dino Ferrari or two in my slot box. I recently scored a strombecker Dino on ebay. Brass chassis and a hunkin 26D can motor with 1/8" threaded axles and revell aluminum rims topped off with a steel crown gear. I got it running decently but today I was thinking why hasn't slot.it, NSR or even Fly made a reproduction of this classic race car. From what I have either read or been told Carrera's exclusive rights don't extend back to cars from the 1960s.

It seems you might be in luck if you care to finish it yourself -

Hi Bob,
We could always 3D print one, but it still doesn't answer why barely any RTR slots

I forgot how much I liked that car. But $80 is a DNF for pricing.
