Who is the manufacturer of those rather tasty looking kits? And how about some 'inside-the-box' shots

Hi
Heres some pics of the wheels and some pics of the HiAce parts and wheels.

:eek: woah those hiace wheels are amazing!!! Btw how tall is the hiace when finally built? Just wondering if it'll fit into the usual 1/24 display case. Me thinks it'll be too big. Is that all the pieces from the Hiace kit (last pic) doesn't seem too many there.

Anyway, when you starting building? :biggrin:

mmmmmmmmmm sexy van

that looks to be the average amount of parts for a japanese curbside kit. the 180SX and silvia kits only have like 70 parts or so, maybe less.

that van is cool

is the Hiace kit by Aoshima? if so, theres a similar kit at HLJ, but i cant find pics of parts and manual at Hobbysearch(www.1999.co.jp)

Hi
Yes they are all Aoshima. Thats all the parts in the box. I dont know how high a display box is so i couldnt tell you if it will fit sorry.

Thanks Nathan

i have a similar mini van called Mitsubishi Delica Star Wagon also from Aoshima similar to the Toyota Hiace, as my van is 4wd the model stands almost 90mm tall, and the Tamiya display case according to HLJ is 240x130x110mm for 1/24 scale cars, so i believe yes the Hiace will fit

p.s. look out for pics of the Delica Star Wagon 4wd soon as when i take some pics and uploaded.
