kjohan Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Would be nice if they in the future released a GTZ / Tubolare , aka "Mini GTO". The body and most of the chassis are of course different, but probably some components could be common with the GTA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a jewel of a kit and I'll look forward to building it once again. Great news - now I can stock up (I have 3 unbuilts in my stash from when they were first released + a GTAm transkit)- one of my all time favorites !

Was under the impression My Favorite Headache (credit: @keyser) might have covered this on the resin end of things but perhaps not. Tamiya's kitted odder balls...

Justin Porter Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Additional good news on the Alfa reissue. According to Stevens International the MSRP is $33. For comparison's sake, MSRP on the just announced Craftsman Plus '64 Chevelle Malibu is $35.99. A full detail Tamiya kit from the 90's with metal transfer badges and poseable steering is cheaper than an AMT curbside from the 60's. Just to make things abundantly clear. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Junkman Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Just for curiosity's sake: what years of the Trans Am Series will the Tamiya kit be the best basis for? Or will it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
