I WANT IT!!!

I hate all that white metal, it makes it as fiddley to build as the Union 512S. :rolleyes:

That's sweet, but are those solid resin tyres?

If they are, then that spoils it a bit IMO.

I don't want to sound like a complete idiot but what exactly is a "multimedia kit?"

Actually every kit is a multimedia kit, it means the model kit is made with more than one type of material like styrene, rubber, resin, metal etc. :)

It's called multimedia, when a kit has more materials than commonly available plastic model, which only has plastic and rubber tire.
Multimedia kit usually contains materials, such as resin, white metal , rubber tires, photo etched nickel or copper detail parts, vacuum form windshield, machined aluminum wheel, silk screen decal, etc.
