Aoshima Mitsubishi Pajero 2dr rerelease, *Pics in post 12!*

[Jordan White]

Looks like they may be doing another run of the 2dr Pajero kit, and it should be out in Japan by the end of the year.

I might pick one up to go with my Tamiya kit, since it appears to have similar exterior options.

Fujimi just recently reissued their 2dr version, and they are are also reissuing their 4dr w/options version as well , I do have Aoshima's 2dr version on pre order

Looks like the Fujimi one is the smaller one (Pajero Jr. as they call it), not the full size like this one.

Now this is interesting.. Anybody know if this kit is right-hand-drive dash only, or if it includes a left-hand-drive option?

Right, it is smaller, I was just pointing out that there are some choices for them right now

The short wheelbase, or this one was not available in the USA, so its only going to have a RHD

That is a cool looking little model.....I might have to look into that one....

That is good to hear. I have a 4dr version. It is a really nice kit

I want one because...

Might be tough since they never had a second generation of the Raider. You could make one though and have it be a concept, though you would need a LHD interior.

Better than starting with sheet plastic and a dream, though. For this guy, anyway.

I thought you were meaning the women in the advert

Kit has been released finally! Just received mine, and it was about 29 bucks including shipping through Hobbylink Japan.

There is a good parts count for being a curbside (typical Aoshima quality), as well as a few extra parts similar to the Tamiya version with sport options (front off-road bumper, extra set of wheels, roof rack, rear ladder, extra driving lights). TIres are the excellently molded Bridgestone Desert Duelers, and everything else appears to be well molded as well. I plan on combining this with an old Tamiya kit so as to make a full detail version of the SWB Pajero/Montero.

Nah- she's a bit lanky for my tastes.
