Besides, how Evo different from standard Koenig TR?

Easy for u to say readily available. U r in JAPAN. I m in Singapore. Modelling is not a very common hobby here. Fujimi kits are rare here, as well as Aoshima, and very expensive. The most common brand here is Tamiya, followed by Hasegawa, Italeri, Academy and US brands.
Anyway, i don't really like to buy Fujimi or Hasegawa kits, cause there is no indication whether the kits have engine detail or not (all description in Japanese
), while Tamiya kits with engine are easily recognisable with a picture of the model with the engine on the box. US brands are a no no (except Revell), lousy moulding, unrealistic brakes etc...
