Greg Cullinan Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 My HLJ order with the Tamiya LaFerrari and other things What is the turn around on shipping approximately from hl japan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) What is the turn around on shipping approximately from hl japan? If it's in stock, I usually get it in 3-4 business days via Fed Ex...I use their Private Warehouse and accumulate kits as they are released or become available (if back ordered) then place a shipment.

Thanks. I'm pretty sure I ordered from them a few years ago. A few weeks ago though I went on and started a private warehouse,it's pretty neat to do. Plus they really have some unique items.

Four days this ime because of the weekend. Private Warehouse works very well. I have a couple of other items on order, but the 60 day max hold in the warehouse would be up by week's end. So I decided to get what was in and hold off the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same La Ferrari time "problem", I have one more back-order I know they would have gotten in stock before the 3-Day Holiday this weekend, just waiting to be billed for it before I ship.

JTalmage Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I've had this for a bit, but I'm pretty proud of it. Although I'm not sure how to make it not be clear, but still showcase the orange flake ... thinking maybe an orange flake paint from behind?

disabled modeler Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 If it were me id just build it as is...will always be something different that way...pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm not sure how to make it not be clear, but still showcase the orange flake ... thinking maybe an orange flake paint from behind? it is kind of neat, really different, but I'd trade it and get a normal white molded kit to paint. or put it back in the box and get another one to build the way you want.

Agent G Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Gold on the backside for orange. Silver for cool colors, gold for warm. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTalmage Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Gold... got it. That makes sense. Part of me doesnt want to build it.. but I had to open it to find out! And part of me really wants to build it and do as you said... paint it gold on the backside, and put a good clear over the outside. I almost didnt buy this kit, but I was drawn to it and couldnt put it down when I was at hobby lobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrherald420 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I am waiting for my Apt office to get back from lunch so i can pick up a package. Its from GMS Customs on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrherald420 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Well, i got my 2nd 1/12 Foose Camaro. Got this one from GMS Customs on ebay, someone posted a link of the auction in the thread and it was deleted. Lucky for me i had the email notice of it and bought the last one he had for sale @ 39.99. Just my luck, i opened it and found the rear window broken and one stock tire missing. The first one i got my 2yr old sat on the body and split the roof almost in half. Is this fate telling me to quit or just not to build this kit?!?!?
