Re: For the 1/12 fans

What's that? Tamiya is making detail up parts and selling them seperately? Wild!

And isn't that the Porsche that Scale Motorsport made a superdetail set for? I bet they are jumping up and down while dusting off the old tools.

And not to jack your thread, but SMS's page makes mention of multidimensional CF decal; does anyone know about this? Is this CF decal printed in releif to get that rough texture you motorsport folks are after?

Wow, that is cheap! I paid about £100 GBP for my one from ebay, as I thought it was gonna be deleted for ever!

Good news on the P/e detail parts aswell.

Cheap ? If you add the shipping it makes a round 100 euros. Not so cheap. But i'm still hesitating on this one. We'll see if the coca-cola guy is generous this year...

Re: For the 1/12 fans

I got rid of mine on eBay just in time.

Now I can buy another for 1/4 of what I sold the other one for!

quite strange. It better be good, becose at the same price of S27, it's not the litle PE part they give with Special edition kit that will worth 1200Y

but seeing PE part for the Z is nice. Maybe after all, the Z won't be full diecast, no-glue, no-paint kit

btw, Tamiya Will release (or re-release, I think it's the kit 24185 + few decals) the Renault Alpine A110 Monte-Carlo

Something that Look like that:

Excellent, that's great news, I've been waiting for this kit.
