Re: 307 WRC on the shelf
Apart from the already well discussed chassis it has some nice features and details. I can see I'll probably relent and buy one at some stage.
P.S. If you don't get why it makes people angry about the chassis you need to look at the bottom of a real 307. Metal is not the issue, the toy like lack of accuracy and detail is. |

Well, at least if Tamiya decides to do a gravel rally version (or if someone wants to make a conversion)...it might be possible with how the suspension goes together. I have one on the way with the photo-etch bits. Though I wish all the models they put out would be like the Shell F40...the photo-etch bits are included...and the damn thing is cheaper! Oh well.....

Isn't the metal chassis just a "bonus" in this model? Or is it actually the only option?

I agree with Phil, but I think we discuss at all this matter

Re: 307 WRC on the shelf
A lot of money for those few parts!
If this is what Tamiya´s future kits will all look like.....

Re: 307 WRC on the shelf
What's the bottom of the 307 look like? I have no idea.

What's the point of making it diecast? Also, this new kit seems alot less "complete" than the older Tamiya kits (ex: Nissan 300ZX, RX-7 Efini, S2000 (w hardtop + Mugen rims)...). |
