Re: Upcoming kit from FUJIMI 2009

Nice news.
Another answer to Tamiya 1/12 kits...What's the next?...Williams Fw14B?

The Dino Competizione is a beautiful and exotic car.

I'm wondering why this (and not the 206S or better SP) and if it would be and improoved re-release of the old Airfix/Heller mold...

The 206S is strange. I know Fujimi did a resin built up version of the car, but it didn't sell very well. I wonder if the kit is resin? They did do several
resin kits 2 years ago.

Re: Upcoming kit from FUJIMI 2009

Would rather have seen Alfa MiTo than Fiat 500. While many would disagree, I don't care for the 500's looks. At least Fujimi can get licenses from Fiat. Now where's my Alfa 8C!

The heck with the MiTo; I must have an 8C

Sadly there are already at least three companies making 8C's in 1/24...diecast and not a one of them are selling in the US

I love modern Alfas, but the MiTo makes me want to vomit.

Looking forward to the 500

Next up: Tamiya's annoucement of the Altima! I hope they price it right, say around $50 or $60.

Re: Upcoming kit from FUJIMI 2009

Go on ebay and pick up one of the Alfa's on European ebay. I have the Cararama and Welly's Alfa 8C and MITO. They are as good if not better than most of the Fujimi kits. I pulled the paint off them and turned the 8C into a spider.

Go to www.kaz43.fotki.com
and look under Ferrari Expo 2008 for the Alfa 8C photos.

It will be priced right up there with the GT-R, and it's going to be the ultra-sexy 2.5S with CVT

Sweet, the new 500 and the Altima- it looks like it will be a good year for new kits!

Good news! I hope the Dino will be a detailed plastic kit.
Anyone knows when will this happen?

Yes, Dino 206 is plastic kit and will be delivered in end of May.
FIAT 500 will be also in end of May & MP4/6 in end of June

But nothing goes as planned anyway.

Thanks for the info.

What happened to the Ferrari 412T2 you told me a few months ago? Any news on it?

Aoshima hot summer

Releases from Aoshima: Lancer EVO X and GT-R Spec V for June-July.
This news and the Fujimi "coming soon" releases are excellent for the modelers.

Lancer EVO X finally.

Forget Aoshima R35 Spec V; Fujimi has that one coming as well. Fujimi GTR is the best one of all.

They also have a club sport variant. That pretty much kills the crappy resin one we saw here recently

No love for 370Z?

Oops...Tamiya is doing the Fairlady.
