ModellingMaster.com - transkits, photo-etched and decals

lol, just kiddin Vitan :)
It is incredible how long do they survive around the world.There is a nice article in an italian magazine where they say very soon all the factory will be converted with renault/dacia new cars.Pictures of the factory are incredible.The place is too big really.

..and too nice to see Roman at work on it.

Hi guys.
I'm almost finished engine for EVO

Perhaps there is another valve cover, made by 3D printing.

Waow !! :yikes: :eek7: :naughty: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Very interesting even if I firstly wasn't totaly convinced by relevance of such a transkit for such a car, it will be a nice addition to an Evo7 build and I think I'll have to get one though !! :grinyes: :grinyes:
Will you completely detail the engine bay and put all the stuff needed to in the Transkit or is it "only" basically the engine block and turbo/intercooler stuff ? Now that I see that I already dream of a completely detailed Evo7 engine bay on my 2002 German rally build. :biggrin:

And one else news from the Santa ;))

:runaround::runaround: waaahhh and something else...!! there's so much I don't know where to look at !! :icon16: :iceslolan :iceslolan
I bet this is the Celica PE transkit, does it mean it's available or going to be available very soon or is it only the first samples for your approval...?

Hello Phil !
There will be a full set of parts for the engine compartment .
And I think it will be included a new hood. To have no problems with cutting.

This is the first test batch photo-etching, but the quality is good and some will be available for ordering.

Excellent !! :thumbsup:

Darn, the Mitsubishi Evo engine looks amazing.

This will definately on my wish list.

Wow, mark me down for one of the evo engines! That would be really cool. The other thing that would be nice for a full detail build would be some of the detail for an open trunk. I haven't seen pics of the Evo's open trunk but I imagine there would be a few things to add that wouldn't be too hard for you to add to it... ;)

Daniel[/QUOTE]

:agree:

But I would do it as a separate package so the
Customer could decide between one or the other.
Will defenitly buy at least two sets of the engine.
Would be nice to have parts to make rally engine
Or optional parts for tuned street evo.

Glad to see you adding new products romik, I wish
You luck!

True, MM. I would just like to see him do parts for the trunk at all. That would be cool.

So, I would be at least one that would hope for trunk details as well as the WRC-tuned Evo engine, not the street one...

Well, it's time for something completely nice, like Photo-etched parts for Toyota Celica Rally kits by Tamiya, Revell & Hasegawa by ModellingMaster (http://modellingmaster.com/lang/ru/2011/08/photo-etched-parts-for-toyota-celica-rally-kits-by-tamiya-revell-hasegawa).

Do we have to order on your website ? do you now accept paypal ?
can you give us a few explanations more on how to get it please ?

rallymaster, yes, we accept PayPal and you can order this detail-kit by mailing info@modellingmaster.com or PMin MotoMetalix here on AF.

Ok thanks, I'll do that this evening or tomorrow, I need to check how much I need, having three different Celicas on project but with versions and parts swap (safari 92 to become safari 93, 92 car to become MC one etc... :runaround: :naughty:)

And concerning PayPal - it's secondary payment option for us, because it's still quite difficult to get money from PayPal in Russia...

Hi Phil .
I'll have a few number of photo-etching, and if you are interested in the engine for EVO, I think it can be combined into one item.

Oh yes I am !!
PM to come ;)

Hi guys.
The first engine kit for test assembly.

http://romik505.users.photofile.ru/photo/romik505/96092225/xlarge/126860076.jpg

Now, is this for the rally or street version? (Praying for the rally...) ;)

yes, we accept PayPal and you can order this detail-kit by mailing info@modellingmaster.com or PMin MotoMetalix here on AF.

Hello .
Engine set will be available for purchase after the test assembly.
I need to check that all the parts good. The cost is 32 euros.
I think if possible, for those who can combine orders it can make savings for the delivery.

Guys, what do you think about modern pick-ups? Like SVT Raptor?

Sincerely, but I'm only speaking for me, totally useless !!
You have the good spot with rally cars, especially if interesting to some forgotten cars or versions or if updating some existing cars into new versions.
SUV cars are to me the typical subject to be let to plastic brands and diecast !! because that's what they they will be among, whereas your rally kits or transkits won't be compared to anything else existing.

they are so much cars we still need to find, Group B, Group 4, or even Group A...
rally is abandonned by plastic brands, don't let us fall too !! :crying:

rallymaster, there are 3 of us, and we work on our projects distributed. Rally topic is developed by Romik505 and Motometalix, so everything is fine there :)

I have an offer from pickup-fans who want to have scale models of their most iconic trucks. I suppose simultaneous production of rally cars and trucks doesn't harm anybody.

You wanted opinion I gave mine which can only be a rally fan one. :eek7:
You may have waited for confirmation or acceptation of the idea but I can only give my sincere thoughts as it doesn't seem your question was only for truck fans but for eventual customers.
and as eventual (and already) customer I have to say that I prefer rally kits and transkits.

Moreover nobody can know how you work and develop projects as long as you haven't explained it. :evillol:
So knowing several projects can be lead at the same time, it's only your choice and I'm not sure you require approvement if most of answering people used to your items are like me rally fans :sly: (who will ask for rally !! :biggrin:)...

So I will answer to rally questions only if you prefer ! :grinyes:

rallymaster, your opinion is fully understood and I appreciate it. You are brilliant rally-fan who helps us a lot in developing rally-kits.

I would like to hear your opinions and further, but I would like to know if there are people who like modern trucks and would like to have scale model of it :)

massive mitsu engine. hat off for that guys. I would like to have GT3 R35 for example, and what about SUV, just look how few kits are in completed gallery.

Firun,

For sure this model is very original, but what about the market ?
How much for a full kit, 120-140 Euro ?...Perhaps more ?
The question is : How many modelers are ready to put this money for a Ford Pick-up ?
If you spend lot of time and money to make this model to sell only 10, is it really a good idea ? I think no, especially for your wallet.

Just my 2 cents :wink:

they are so much cars we still need to find, Group B, Group 4, or even Group A...
rally is abandonned by plastic brands, don't let us fall too !! :crying:

:iagree:

Cool idea, but trucks have turned so ugly. The raptor is the one of few newer trucks i like.
Although venturing out into other forms of race or transport will only benifit your company IMO.

The engine is awesome. Need to save now!!

That was also one of the key point I thought about when saying

... SUV cars are to me the typical subject to be let to plastic brands and diecast !! because that's what they will be among, whereas your rally kits or transkits won't be compared to anything else existing...

Dexter Models, thanks for your opinion! You are absolutely right about market and supply-and-demand correlation. That's the reason I'm asking if there would be at least 10 buyers for the kit excluding me, and as I see this topic isn't very popular, although the pick-up trucks are one of the most popular vehicles in US.

First of all, it is all about the relation of a model with the modeler's mind. For some of us, the rally models have the highest value-while we build them they bring us emotions and thoughts about the great drivers behind the wheel of those monsters with 500 hp and more.., driven on the heavy and super fast special stages leaving a cloud of dust in the noses of the overexcited fans, unforgettable sound of powerful engines and a "fast" red beam of the tail lights mixed with pure emotion behind them.....

for some others this is probably some drift car with a smell of hot melting tires and insanely oversteering back....

or it could be an "out of space" prototype, seen on pages of the newspaper or a magazine, or even seen for the first time at the most famous Motorshow....and so on and so on...

but those people are all dependent of something expereienced or seen, that left strong memories in the mind, i.e. they all bring a smaller or bigger, but always very bright piece of passion and emotion which remains in the modeler's mind, sometimes forever....

After all, probably for the business the question is whether someone would buy a "cool car" and not would he buy a model and build it putting some emotion into..

So, it is up to you to decide..

Vitan Kasnakov

Dear customers, thanks for your overwhelming interest in our products!
We have written about PayPal support recently, but due to high interest and large amount of payments accepted via PayPal we have stumbled on PayPal limitations on accepting money for not-U.S. residents.
We would highly recommend to purchase our products via bank transfers or other supported payment options, because PayPal has some limitations for us for several further months.
Thanks for your understanding!

That's a bad news.. i was really intersted on Evo engine, but the only way to pay is via Paypal.. hope it still in production when you back to work with Paypal :(

Sorry if it was answered earlier but I didn't see it--is this engine for the street EVO or the Rally version?

That's what I wanted to hear, Phil!

I would like to know if there are people who like modern trucks and would like to have scale model of it :)

Dakar versions?

Wow! I left for a week on vacation and this thread absolutely blew up!

Can one of the ModelingMaster guys let me know the specifics of payment they accept to order some of the EVO engine rally kits? I'd really love to purchase some.

PM and e-mail sent. Thanks!

Dakar versions?

Mini 2012 ? )))

Firun,

The choice of a model to do is not easy and there's always a risk.
If you have a doubt about a subject, you still can make a survey on your website.

Second option, produce a kit through a subscription.
I made this some years ago for a 1/18 decal project.
I was not sure to sell all decals, so I asked to customer interested to subscribe.
At this time, I needed at least 30 customers to launch the project.
They sent me their payment and I produced the decals.

Inconvenience : Customers must to be in complete confidence to send a payment and wait several month to get their kit.

Awesome!

Now, this includes the engine, airbox, radiator, shock tower mounts and all the fluid reservoirs? Just making sure.

I'll be for sure ordering one. How much is shipping to the US?

Same here but shipping to Canada...

Thanks!

Just thinking to something...
If anyone has good references of the real car and engine it will be nice to share it somewhere and collect everyone's references on a same place as we might be a few to have this one to build.
I've realized that I almost have nothing about Evo7 engine (or inside too)...

Please put me down for 2 sets! E-mail sent to you Roman.

Very nice!!!

Same here but shipping to Canada...

Thanks!

Hello !
The cost of delivery of a motor 7 euros. Post of Russia considers tariff the weight of the package. This is the cost for all countries.
Please write to order by e-mail.

Celica PE + Evo7 engine Transkit. :cool:

Wow wow wow !! :runaround: :naughty: :naughty:

The engine transkit is perfect !! perfect cast, excellent building instructions, great details... Perfect I say ! :biggrin:

And the PE set is perfect aswell !! So many parts I even think I may not use them all ! :lol:
The building instructions is clear and complete, I just only regret there isn't a reference pic or two of the real car, especially concerning the special MonteCarlo fuel tnak, as I never noticed it so different...
With the transkit you can build either the Monte Carlo or the Safari version.
I have three sets and also intend to build 92 MonteCarlo Sainz's car with the transkit, most of the parts being common two both years.

Sincerely, if you are a rally models builder, these transkit really worse the price asked for them compared to what market offer in general knowing there simply isn't any other choice for an Evo7 engine or a Celica PE set allowing to build any version of the Celica with the same transkit.
A must have ! :thumbsup:

Hi Phil,

Great to hear that!!.. i can see that mine is on the post office, but it's not released to delivery, you know.. customs!!.. i hope i have not to pay taxes :) .. Can't wait to put my hands on it.. :)

Hi Cris,

if it's on the post office it should have passed with success the custom step...?! I hope so, would be a pain to pay tax...

You may enjoy the transkit too, the resin cast is perfect and the resin itself is great, soft (elastic) but strong !! and very clean, no bubbles...
A very excellent stuff !! :cool:
Congratulations and thanks to ModellingMaster crew ! ;)

Thank you, Phil, for your feedback. It's very nice to my ears, because I spent several months developing this pe set for celica. At that time I had little reliable information, so I think you're right. The PE fuel tank is correct in version of Safari. Fortunately, you have a choice when building ;-)

It can be more sincere, you caught all the details, and even put more details I could expect. Not sure I will add thel all myself :lol:

Uhh not sure we well understood each other... :lol:
In fact I think you are right for MC version with the PE, but tamiya is right for Safari...

Tamiya released the 92 safari version before the 93 MonteCarlo version that's why the MC kit has the safari fuel tank, they didn't correct it...
It's what I think...

The hasegawa kit I have is the safari one so can't say more for hasegawa.

I knew there were differences before both fuel tanks configurations (safari fuel tanks are usually bigger), but didn't notice they were so different.

Most of kit brands 1/43 or 1/24 seem to have made the mistake to copy the safari fuel tank...!

I really think you're right for the MC fuel tank, we have to use the PE for this version.

Problem is that I can't find pics from the MC fuel tank, all I find is from the 95 GT-Four (st205), I suppose you had some good ones to make the PE set, would you share them ?
maybe a references gallery on your website would be great. :2cents: suggestion :biggrin:
