Atmobil Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Nice one. I also built this kit some years ago and I know how much of a challenge it can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjordan2 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Never seen that kit before. Details? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspective Customs Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Never seen that kit before. Details? Thanks guys. It's sort if a rare kit and can be pricey if you find one. The box is dated 1987. This is the AMG version. There is a non AMG version on the auction site now for $108. Of course I didn't pay anything close to that. My motto, "never pay retail". Thanks again Edited September 2, 2015 by Perspective Customs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atmobil Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) Never seen that kit before. Details?Here is a link to the Aoshima reissue of the kit that is currently for sale at 108$: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AOSHIMA-1-24-Mercedes-Benz-230TE-Discontinued-Rare-Scale-Model-Kit-Box-Damaged-/171883989891?hash=item2805158b83Tthere was also a sedan version of the kit. I got two different versions of the sedan, one 300E Polizei in a Revell Electronic box (comes with flashing lights and sound in a microchipcard) and one 230E Lorinser with a special bodykit and wheels.I can also mention that Fujimi had a C124 300CE 24valve coupe that is a very different tool and indeed better propotioned than the Revell kit. If they every reissue these kits I think I will try and graft a Fujimi front and rear end on to the Revell body.
