thanks for the reply guys, I will try not to let u guys down.
ok, I forgot the formalities for the kit, so imma go ahead and introduce some stuff that I thought was astonishing or something new and "fresh" that I see from this kit...
the box is huge, when I first saw it at my door steps I was like... whao...
** comparison is the router and cable modems on the top left **
Regarding the kits nature, it is not all screws and bolt on, there are parts that must be glued. At the end of the day, the instructions are great, and they do not compromise the detail and they let you see more in a kit at this size. For example, the vents and holders on the engine are all seperate, the engine valve covers, so you can paint each one, and not worry about messing up on the paint when you prepaint everything before you snap or glue them down.
The plastics that they use, I believe is ABS plastic? It is written all over the box, and some parts on the body, when you add the extra nismo kits and spoliers, they ask you to use ABS glue, so I still need to get some of that stuff sooner or later.
The decals are something that was astonising to me, well one they are not water applied... they are stickers? I thought this was really crazy, because they got stickers for everything in the car, from the VIN plate, to the stickers on the speakers, and detail in the engine, brakes, individual stickers for the gauges and even Nismo sponsered decals for the model too.
The smaller stickers, are metal transfer stickers for the GTR sign on the back, the skyline sign on the hood, and the side GT markers too, all metal transfer
The black stuff on the right, are the window masks, you modellers all know, the part we hate the most, the window black painting stuff... NO fear Fujimi has helped us through on this one.
On the top left, that is actually the silver foil that has been precut so you can stick them to the headlights instead of painting them.
Lastly, the big blue block up there... is sorta mindful of Fujimi to think about, so then people who can't really paint the seats can use these... This is the two tone blue cloth on the black seats with the Nismo GTR... crazy eh? So just spray the seats Black, and then stick the stickers on the located areas and its done... simple eh?
These are some of the parts, that are ingenious, but I think a hold back to us modelers, because I would rather paint them clear red and orange, instead of them factory molded in this color, so modelers also have a choice to clear corner the side blinkers or anything in that nature. But I most likely will have to repaint them with the clear orange and red, but Im not sure how the nature of the two colors with mix... I hope it will not turn to dark or thick.
The quality of the plastics are good, nice detail and thought through for the modeller who wants to finish without doing anything scratch built or of that nature, the kit itself was for modelers who want a professional finish without painting or anything advance, I don't call this kit a kit for advance modellers because if one was to build one box and bone stock, it will be easy to do by the instructions. However, this is a Advanced modellers kit because there is so much room for personal touch ups and super detailing that the sky really is the limits. The engine detail, opening doors can reveal detailed pedal for the gas, brake, and clutch, you can do manything in this kit, just depends how how far you want to go with this kit.
OK, that is the formalities and introductions.
Thanks for dropping by
