Aoshima new 2003 fall-winter

1/24 Bomex Supra (Revell rebox? but 1/24...)
1/24 R34 GT-R Nismo (Could be all new or R33 retool)
1/24 R34 GT-R (Could be all new or R33 retool)
1/24 Accoord Wagon (Not sure which)

I'm confirming the details now.

Thats cool I would like to see how aoshima makes the r34 and the supra too since i like there models.

Accord wagon? hmmm... hope it's the new one!

RS

Here is a picture of the bomex supra. Looks nice.

Here is the accord wagon. I think they are coming out with 2 types. This one is like the Wings west one, but with some extra stuff like seats and different mirrors. The other one is of the new accord wagon.

Actually the new accord wagon is being made by fujimi. Here is a picture.

I hope they do a good job with that Supra. I'm guessing the R34 kit will have many variants in the future, i wonder if they'll do the C-West version??? :confused:

cool.. will really be a good one .aoshima kit are nice.
but two thing that will be sad i'm sure:
- No engin
- The vent on the hood will probably be decals as the bomex RX7 sport compact.. but hey! bring on the dremel ! :lol:

I'm very interested in seeing Aoshima's interpretation of the R-34! It would be cool if they gave us an engine! :grinyes:

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Supra is confirmed to be AMT/ERTL rebox. (dammit!)

However, R34 GT-R is all new tool. Suspension is using actual spring parts, just like their Cersior/Lexus kit, and the tail lights are molded in clear red and clear orange.
Also, various aero parts are planned besides Nismo.

Oh yeah, more skyline. I better start saving $$ now for all the new release skyline.

Must get the aoshima NISMO R34 and Xanavi from tamiya.

What the fuck?! They put the AMT crap into a Fujimi box and sell it? Are they mad or what the hell do Fujimi think? :banghead:

So, Chris, hurry up and finish your Bomex bodykit. BTW, when will we see new products from you and what will it be?

Awesome. I think I'll plan on buying a couple of the new Aoshima R34's when they come out.

aoshima...aoshima!. :naughty: :wink: :headshake

That Supra looks almost like the Fast and the Furious one. Looks good.

Didn't want to start a new thread, so I'm adding to this one. This one is for all the wheel guys out there. Aoshima is also releasing some new wheels this winter, too.

Volk Racing TE-37's
Volk Racing CE-28
Enkei NT03+M
Racing Hart Type-CR

HLJ is now accepting pre-orders on them. Already placed my pre-order.

I tried looking for info on what size they'll be, but found nothing. I'm guessing/hoping 18's. Anyone got any info on this?

Still no info about the wheel size. I hope it's 18 or 19 in. (is there real 19" TE-37?)

Watch out for the Bomex Supra. It is 1/25 AMT/ERTL rebox, confirmed by Aoshima. Don't waste money on this if you are not a Japanese resident.

Accord Wagon is supposed to have extra parts, such as gauges, nitro, bucket seat, gt-wing and custom graphics.

I expect those extra parts to be found in other kits, such as RX-7 and Skylines.

Sweet, i cant wait to see the aoshima Te37's. And yes, they do come in 19s

:eek:

But those Aoshima rims are going to be 18 inch if the price is to go by as 19 inch rims always cost 800 yen and those new ones are all 600 yen.

What a shame they haven't learnt yet we want 19's :banghead:

ordered 2 sets of TE37's anyways...they will look good even in 18"

Yeah, they'll be 18's. S-Parts wheels are never bigger than 18's. Only the VIP Parts wheels are 19's. I'm hoping that they'll have more depth than Fujimi's (like Camber's pic). Like most of Fujimi's wheels, they're so flat. Hopefully Aoshima will fix this. Other wheels like the Blitz Technospeeds, Advan RG, etc made by both companies, Aoshima's versions look better and more accurate IMO. I hope it continues.

isnt it sort of good that AMT/ERTL will be making the Supra? i mean, i never seen a curbside AMT/ERTL model before.

I've already got 2 of the 5 R34's I'm going to order planned, hehe :biggrin:

Anyone know when these will be ready to preorder(cars and the rims)?

The AMT "The Fast and the Furious" Supra has been out for several months now, and it's a very nice kit. It is 1/25, not 1/24. It is not a curbside, it has a full engine bay. Some parts need some help, like the brake discs, and the intercooler's missing, but all in all it is quite buildable. :)

It ain't Tamiya, but it ain't bad.

Hiro san, as I understand it now, Aoshima is already importing and selling the F&F Supra kit in Japan. This new kit with the silver-gray car would then be a reboxing of the F&F kit minus the F&F graphics? That would make sense to some degree as Aoshima distributes AMT/Ertl kits in Japan.

On the Skyline, a C-West version is coming in 2004, and I have heard, same as you, that they plan further variations.
It's just good to see Aoshima producing some new tools again. :jump3:

Thanks and regards,

The CE's should be nice also :smokin:
