Fran was producing the FIA wheels in magnesium.
On another note, I wonder if these wheels will incorporate all of the detail of the original wheels? IMO the price of the wheel should be based on the effort gone into how accurately it is being reproduced, more detail should equal more money. A Trigo cast in magnesium should be marginally higher in price than the alloy version, the difference in the material itself. For some reason the people that have done reproductions of the wheels in magnesium think that they can charge huge money just because the wheel is re-popped in magnesium.
