More pics of the RX3 please! I have an old Otaki kit of one, haven't had the guts to build it yet.
W/Fujimi doing cars like the Isuzu Bellett and 117 coupe, along w/the Levin TE27, you'd think that the logical progression would be towards the RX3...an all-new kit would be so cool. The old Otaki/Nichimo etc. kits are really crude, never looking as good as the box art, and they're all toylike w/chassis meant for electric motors. Tooled properly, Fujimi could get a whole lot of mileage out of an all-new RX3...stock early model, stock late model, racing variations w/separate flares, tuned versions...c'mon Fujimi, we know you can do it!

thanks for the positive comments, however those paint jobs come up alot better on the camera than up close.... im from australia, the rx3 is actually fairly common around here, there was about 20 models of them in thecity hobby store (hobbyco) About $40 AUS, ($25 US) roughly to buy. not the most detailed kit, but with my obsession with rotaries i couldnt resist, heck i even bought an rx3 r/c shell for my radio control car. however its purely going to be for display, ill try n get more pics up soon

BTW that rx3 model is the nichimo one. I just put the tamiya ferrari f40 wheels on there to spruce it up. Ive also got a doyusha rx3 and rx5 model ready to be made too, as well as cosmo sport, tamiya 787b (finally got it today in the mail:)) and sa22c rx7, fc rx7 oh yeah cant forget the 360 modena, 355 berlinetta. f1 2001, i also bought the kyoso 1:18 rx7 s6 too. I will make these as soon as i find a cabinet, for the moment, the rx3 and rx7 are in a cardboard box to protect them from dust
