1/24 Revell Porsche 934RSR thoughts?

[aurfalien]

Hi,

So I'm contemplating a first first model kit to start off with since I stopped building end of last year.

The Revell Porsche 934 RSR in Martini livery looks to be a lot of fun.  Could any one who has built it comment on the kit?

Thanks in advance.

Don't have the kit but from what I understand it's the Valliant kit with different decals.

Thanks AFX.  I love this guys reviews etc...  he's superb!

Revell is doing some very very nice stuff these days.  I think they get some undue criticism at times.

Well, their choice is not least a matter of brand licensing these days, I reckon. Obviously, they are in possesion of a Porsche license currently, which lead to the release of the 918 spyder, Panamera, 930 turbo and the three versions of the 934 RSR. Of course, it's not a bad thing to have these well-detailed 934 RSR kits released, but personally, I could have done with sticking to the two Tamiya kit variants, especially as those two are the same liveries (Jägermeister, Vaillant).

Although I'm not a big fan of contemporary cars and hypercars, I would advise them to use their McLaren license to do something else beside the 570S.
