Lamborghini Miura?

[Kit Basher]

Does anyone have any info on these kits? Two by Hasegawa, supposedly soon to be available, one by Italeri. It appears they are all curbsides. Is one better than the other? Thanks!

I have the Miura SV from Hasegawa, very nice kit. Here is a link that shows what is in the box, http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10034163

Thanks for that link, Mike! It does look like a nice kit. As near as I can tell the Italeri kit has no chrome parts.

The Italeri one is a reissue of the old ESCI kit.  Hasegawa's is miles ahead.

Thanks, Silvester. I think I am going to get the Hasegawa kit when it becomes available.

The Hasegawa kit was originally issued about 10 years ago. Unless they made an all-new tool, you can find them online now.

Thanks for that link, Lee. Really informative and excellent workmanship. Makes me want to build one even more!

Good to know, since I got the special edition (green) kit recently.

The ESCI kit is a pretty good one.  Just picked it up.  Has a bit more detail.  I go t the Hasewaga kit awhile back and it was ok too.

The ESCI kit isn't bad except the rear panel shape looks like its too squared off to my eye. Its a early car with the 'eyebows' on the headlight and a few other trim differences approx. 1967. The Hasegawa looks a little better on body shape and detail but is a later car. So if you want to do the 50th Anniversary car will say the ESCI is way to go, if you just want a Miura the Hasegawa would be the better choice.

Thanks for the replies, guys. I bought the Hasegawa kit. Now I just need to get around to building it!
