Re: Anyone built the Fujimi Porsche 911S '69 kit?

The Tamiya 88 Turbo and Fujimi 911S are about as different as two kits of a 911 could be. The Tamiya kit is a terrific but simplified kit. The body is great and fit is usual Tamiya quality, but the kit has a surprisingly low part count. The Fujimi kit is from their famous/notorious Enthusiast series. It has full detail including engine, but has an absurdly high parts count. It is very detailed, however fit is less than perfect. It is over engineered and over complicated, and takes a lot of building. But with skill and patience it can be made into a fantastic replica.
