If you guys know anything about the Aoshima hilux line you know that they are expensive and somewhat hard to find. I found this example at my LHS for $32.75 so I picked it up. I planned to make this my first really good build. I was going to add lots of detail to the interior, chassis and engine. I was going to spend lots of time wet-sanding and trying to get that "miles deep" clear coat. I wanted to maybe add a Toyota 2jz and turbo it. I opened the box like a 5 year old on Christmas, and I am honestly really disappointed. All the parts except for chrome, clear and the interior are molded in color, either black or red... The hood doesn't open and there isn't even an engine. The chassis parts also look unrealistic especially the drive shaft universal joints. Its a glorified snap kit. I saw some promising reviews on amazon, but I think this kit really falls short. The plan for this one is just going to be box stock, I will paint the body some creamy metallic gold I think. Maybe metallic dark blue, not too sure. Anyways this should be a quick one. I will start to wet sand the body on Monday probably, and I may prime the frame tonight.
