But there were a couple available if you made it in time. I got my purchase order for two (one of each) about an hour ago. Might be time to clean out the PW, I have 9 kits in there.

Similar here..I had preordered the red one (Enkei) but it went to backorder on me a couple days ago..so I cancelled that one and bought the black one (Volk) today..seems only the wheels, decals, and body color differ.. might be time to clean out the PW, I have 6 kits and 2 wheel/tire sets in mine. Or I'll wait until the end of the month to see if more of my backorder or preorder items come in (I have 9 kits on back order, 5 on pre order and 4 sets of wheels on pre order) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to divert the thread too much…but my last order from TH was returned mid-ship because the label was torn off - so TH paid to express mail the model from Japan - showed up in THREE DAYS! That's service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinfan5 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) As promised for the few on here that will care, after a bit of delay, the Rocket Bunny kits have arrived , I am going to cover both kits , as there really isnt much different other then the wheels and decals, and one has the a P/E set included. I am only going to provided pictures of one set of tree pics , as those are going to be same in both kits, and are the same in all the previous 86 kits . I failed to included some useful information in my hast to get this posted, both of these kits include both RHD/LHD options, as well decals to do either the US spec Scion FRS, or the EU Spec GT 86 Up First is the Volk Racing version, this one is molded in black Edited November 21, 2013 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niteowl7710 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Not shown in Jonathan's pictures are the P/E Winglets for the Enkei (Red) 86 kit. These were a special for the 1st run of kits, and will not be in subsequent runs (next one is scheduled for January - so it's gonna be a wait till more are available). There are plastic versions identical to the P/E pieces on the runner as seen in the photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
