  1. I’m currently working on one of these. The floor pan and internal aspect of the doors indicate that they may release a left hand drive version at a later date. The separate headlight and front bumper indicate to me that they may do the rally version too. Hopefully that’ll make people happy. Ben
  2. I’ve got one of these too. I like where you going with this, especially the rivet detail. I saw another modeller add a rain sill on theirs. Cheers Ben
  3. It’s almost a golden age of modelling. Ben
  4. The Tamiya 959 is from 1987. I’m currently working on one and there is a lot of work to get the engine cover right. That being said, the Porsches about to be released by Revell are looking very good but I doubt they’ll be as good as a current Tamiya kit. Ben
  5. AITM does some great stuff. An Australian company Robbos tipper bodies does a pretty good one too https://www.robbosscalemodel.com/product-page/e Ben
  6. I’m wondering how successful this project will be? I’m not sure how popular a garbage truck will be. The International CO4070 seems to be going well and has a solid fan base. If the Round 2 people are reading the boards, are they looking at a more modern big rig? Just curious. Ben
  7. I wonder how well the International Transtar CO4070 is doing? I bought 3, it’s a great kit. Ben
  8. Looks like it will be more expensive than the CO4070. Ben
  9. It’s a good sign that they’re willing to do whole new moulds. I’m hoping they work on a new modern truck. Ben
  10. You can get the red tractor still. It’s a Heller product. Ben
  11. It surprised me too. It went together well too. I hope they acquire the moulds and reissue it again. Ben
  12. I hope they do the Hyundai i30 N and Kia Stinger. They have appeal to car enthusiasts. Ben
  13. Very nice! Hopefully Tamiya does the “400” Z next. Ben
  14. You inspired me to build one! I’ve made a start but life has gotten in the way. Hopefully I’ll get more done on holidays. Ben
  15. My 1/32 Volvo N10. Couldn’t get the bonnet 100% right and lost a headlight to the carpet monster. Ben
  16. Hi fellas. A quick little build. They’re not too bad, but I struggled with the window stickers so used a molotow chrome pen. It’s a little rough, but it’s the first model I’ve completed this year. I need to get back to it. Ben
  17. Well, they’ve virtually done every other Z car. I dare say you’re right about the new Z. Ben
  18. I’m just glad their doing a new mould. It gives me hope for a whole new truck kit. Ben
  19. I build in multiple scales. I think it will look ace. I hope it builds well. Ben
  20. My prediction would be the 86 & BRZ, followed closely by the new Nissan Z, as Tamiya has done most previous Z cars. If anything Porsche related comes out, it’s probably going to be from Revell as they seem to be releasing new moulds of Porsche lately. Ben
