Here is the reply. Looks like we will have to look elsewhere.
"Thanks very much for your attention and support for Paudi, we also really
like FTYPE, we had negotiated with L&J about the licensing production
issues, unfortunately, L&J authorized production licensing fees was far
beyond our budget. Therefore, we have to suspend this projct.
Thanks again for your attention and support.
Best regards
Kevin Liu

Maybe better off trying Autoart or Bburago. These guys have mass distribution and an existing relationship with JLR.

I think JLR marketing is taking a very shortsighted approach to this matter.

If the F-Type hangs around long enough to become an icon or with many more units on the streets, someone will see the business case and build it.

It makes perfect sense to me. The overwhelming majority of diecast sales are to those with a personal connection to a particular vehicle. This is a small market car. Its the same issue that prevents companies from producing aftermarket parts.

I agree with your comments - although, they just signed an agreement with Ferrari, so it's not all about volume car sales. Also, they make at least a dozen variants of the e-Type, which were never high volume (although it qualifies in the icon category). Just keeping my fingers crossed.
