om617 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Finally got the Fujimi wheels I ordered off eBay.. they look great and will look even better on the 308 I'm building.. I was really disappointed when i got mine. The tires are way to narrow for the wheels. I bought them because i wanted some meaty tires,not to look part of some stretch and poke fashion. Maby it was just mine and these are like they should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niteowl7710 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Jonathan and James: Those Subaru Sambars are awesome! I didn't even know those existed. They are brand new tooling (the kits are the same with the exception of the pick-up bed vs. cargo box) representing 2012 Sambars. They are little jewels of a kit too, about 130 parts, 4-5 part engines (nothing opens to see them so it wasn't all out), but the suspension is superb, chassis detail and interior detail are excellent, and there's even Yokohama tire engraving on the tiny (about the size of a Certs) tires. While the subject matter surely isn't up a lot of people's alleys, they show the excellent attention to detail Aoshima is putting in their "run of the mill" kits right now. Y2600 each, with the exchange rate, that's about $26.40...putting them cheaper than the MSRP on new Revell kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I may get one of the Sambars eventually...looks like it would be a neat little truck kit to go w/ the other little Japanese truck kit I have (tiny one w/ spare tire on the front, drawing a blank as to the name).

Rob Hall Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Picked up the new Revell (RoG rebox) '68 Beetle, '69 Shelby GT500 convertible, and '84 Camaro Pro Stock at my LHS this afternoon. Their RPP allocation of '70 Cudas were long gone, it looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrherald420 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I almost bought that Corvette Grand Sport on Sunday. How does it look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyfink Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 This one looks awesome! There are two of them in the box!! You can get the same kit, basically, from Revell as they reboxed it in their own boxes. Biggest issue with this kit is the chassis. It has the mold reliefs on the wrong side of the tubing and they show when assembled. With some plastic rod and putty, that can be fixed easily.
