Anybody out there know anything about this kit? I found a site that has it listed for $24.00 and I'm wondering if thats a good price for it or not?

I've heard of it. Don't know how good it is but considering new Fujimi 1/20 kits are going for $50-$60 I'd say it's worth taking a gamble.

I ordered it and got one in the mail last night. The kit is basically a up-scaled Revell-O-Germany (RG) quality kit. It has about 106 parts, curbside, no engine (not even a pseudo blob of plastic like you get with the RG kits), parts are molded in yellow, blue and black. Tyres are solid rubber. Decals are typical of the kind you get in the RG kits (pretty nice looking, thick, no tobacco, car 7 and 8, complete driver markings). The decal sheet is ~8.5'' X 11'' (massive). It comes with a driver figure and a separate helmet (thats a first) and steerable front wheels (like the Tamiya 1/12 series). I have no idea about the quality (WRT parts fitting other parts). For $24.00 + shipping, its not a bad kit. I got mine from this site (nice people, FAST delivery!) --> www.halfmoonhobbies.com/IowaRacing/home.html RussD |
