Modelbuilder Mark Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Built mostly box stock. I really like the general proportions of the kit, and I am mostly pleased with the results, there are some oddities which are interesting, but unnecessary, such as work springs for the rear wheels, and reclining seats which you cannot get to unless you cut the side glass out before installation. There is a lack of chassis and motor detail as this is basically a modified toy, with a battery box where the motor should be that the dash mounts to, and the molded in rear axle leaves obvious space for gears to crank the wheels. Throughout the model, there are very few positive mounting brackets, but the fit is good, and the kit gives mutliple year option for the headlight and tail lights. Paint is @https://scalefinishes.com/ with 2k clear. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koellefornia Kid Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Usually I do not care much for japanese cars but this one looks great and Iove the colour combo! Looks fast standing still! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeRS Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 That’s cool. The Celica is such a good shape. Usually motorised kits have appalling detail underneath, but this one looks pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
