martinfan5 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 New from Fujimi Models, their FJ Cruiser kit, part of the their no paint and glue series, you get a few choices of the what color the body is molded in, White, Black and Yellow.

Jordan White Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Nice to see a kit of a new SUV subject! Despite claiming to be "no glue", it has a nice amount of detail. The only minus is having the door panels and seat bottoms molded to the interior tub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyg Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Looks like a great kit! I wouldn’t mind getting one. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty92 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Thanks for posting! My mother has always wanted one. I might have to build her a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Janssens Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Odd they didn't plate the tree with amongst other parts the headlamp backings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemodeler Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Looks like a nice kit, a bit more detailed than the typical US "no glue/no paint" kit. What did that cost you if you don't mind me asking? I would swap those tires with a set of All Terrain BFGs from Fireball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, overall the detail is pretty decent for being a snapper if you will, $35 US https://hlj.com/1-24-scale-car-next-009-toyota-fj-cruiser-white-fuj06612 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hmm...I think I'll need to find me one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Zoom Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Thanks for sharing; I have the same kit on the slow registered SAL boat, should land in a couple weeks. Fun subject, surprised it took this long to have a model of it. Looks like the body parts breakdown mostly eliminates visible mold seam lines like the Hustler/Flair duo?

That is what it looks Bob, I am not seeing mold/seem lines, so one should be able to build this sucker right out of the box and not have worry about removing them. On a personal note, I am looking forward to building this one, I am having/had fun building the Hustler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I do not see the Snorkle Air Intake Tube that seems to be on a bout half the FJs I see here in California. I wonder if they'll do a later Off Road version with more aggressive tires, and the optional parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted January 11, 2019 Author Share Posted January 11, 2019 There is none, probably because its 100% showroom stock kit, I have no doubts that someone will make the off road bits in either resin or 3D printed at some point, and maybe a Left Hand Drive dash too.
