Entex/BAndai 1/20 Lancia Stratos

[Pastis]

Howdy,

Are the Entex 1/20 lancia stratos any good?
SAme for the Bandai 1/20 lancia Stratos or is this a rebox of the former?

been looking for reviews but couldn't find any.

cheers Stef

Hi Stef,

I had a Stratos from Union in 1/20th scale, but sold it. Looked pretty good and came with an engine.

Best regards,
Lesley

theres a big scale stratos on my wish list. Still have to figure out wich one i
want futurewise... The one i want has to be with the engine included. So i guess fujimi 1/20 are out of the league.

Entex, Bandai, Eidai/Grip....all the same models just reboxed! (my guess is that it was all the same company....different names for different markets/country's?) but they are the same model

Entex Stratos it is good, with few troubles: rear fenders are approx. correct in shape to represent a '75/77 wide car, but not wide enough (I would say very narrow...), front lights (those in the front bonnet) are ridicolously small, they're indeed small for a 1/24 stratos I guess. I have no time for a review but I could take few picts if you want.

Hi.

I find the Bandai/Entex one of the best and most complete scale models of the Lancia Stratos, even if it is an early 80's model. If you put some extra work on it, you could end with a very rewarding model.

I am leaving here a link to a local modelling forum, in it, at the end of the page, you can find some photos of two of these models. The fully assembled one was built by me, many years ago, exaust and intake pipes are scratchbuilt.

The second one was offered to me, by someone who couldn't complete the project.
