Arrow BANDAI models. Lots of pics-

This is a compilation of the typical early `70s Bandai kits. For to see how complete they were.

Here's something that might interest you both. They're from a 1970's themed issue of Model Cars - the japanese publication. There is a Cosmo AP amongst them Thug, is that the one your after?

There not reissues, i think the article is just showing what kits Bandai had in production at that time.

Here's the Cosmo built up;

WHOW IMPRESSIVE THE ARTICLE!

ITīs very impressive the article on Bandai history.The there some kits that I didnīt know about their existance!
Well , about the carpet, you, know there are such an strange things on Ebay...Just the horrible B&W pic depicts something mine.

The cars shown are from the period.Bandai quitted making car kits with the Be1 (I think) , around 1988.
The cars shown are 1/20 except for the JAg Xj-S at 1/16

Are there any other article around there of any old Japanese brand?

Are you sure that is a Cosmo? It looks more like the 121 (well, at least the engine bay does...)
