Well that's a bit disappointing, just received this email:
We were recently informed by the distributor for Mattel that due to licensing issues the 1:18 scale 1980s Ferrari 308 GTS (P9908) will not have the "Magnum P.I." TV series logo or artwork on the packaging as originally announced. It will only have the "TV Stars" branding.
This highly detailed Limited Edition model will still be the same model of the Ferrari seen in the series. I should also mention that we were told that the printed background scene in the box behind the car will be a helicopter and palm trees, the same as it was before the licensing issue.
These models have arrived at the distributor and are awaiting shipment to us. But, since there was in change in the packaging, we need to know if you still want to order it. Please let us know as soon as possible. I apologize for any inconvenience.
