There is hope of a revival of Scalextric in Spain (SCX) as their website features new 1:32 cars and stuff.
They have always had a tendency to include rally cars and such and new items include Lancia Fulvia Coupe and Lancia Delta integrale "Safari".
"Available Soon"
https://scx.es/en/original/original-cars/
I assume "original" translates to "1:32" as that was the scale they started out with.
I found a couple of the Deltas on Ebay.es but have hesitated as I don't think that any have been issued yet...

This is great news.
A lot of my favourite cars are SCX classic rally cars, because they really nailed the way an old rally car should handle. So much fun to drive.

It took a long time, but I am glad they are back.
SCX is one of my favourites.
The Lancia Fulvia 1.6 HF is a good choice for a new mold.
It was, together with the A110 Alpine, one of the cars to beat at the end of the 'sixties and the beginning of the 'seventies.
Now SCX produces both.

Hello Kevan,
You prob know that the Safari Delta and the Fulvia Coupe were previously done by Team-Slot so I'm wondering if Team-Slot have been incorporated into the SCX/Ninco/WRC group.

The Fulvia is but Deltas are all plastic. The Fulvia was part of the early Team-Slot products.
The T-S Delta is the wrong version of Delta - and it looks like the SCX version has the same issue (should not have tailgate wing and different front bumper)

Nice sunny day today so took the Deltas to the Safari Park for photos.
Only #6 is actually available, #7 is DIY job.
