Re: Re: Favorite Manufacturers

I may be the only one for Aoshima. Best rims and tires I've ever seen And I've never had fitment trouble on any of their kits.

Re: Favorite Manufacturers

For me... the Top 3 favourite model manufacturer would be:
1. Tamiya, for their JGTC Cars, and Rally Cars, and for their supreme parts fit!:
2. Fujimi, for their variety in street Tuner Cars.:hot:
3. Revell-Monogram, for having almost all the other cars that Tamiya and Fujimi don't make, and also for their cheap kits!

My 1st choice defo AOSHIMA because of their superb Tuners Cars, like the VeilSide Combat R32, HKS Kansai R32, VIP Cars
2nd place:TAMIYA for quality, fitment and mass of pieces

Fujimi can´t get a good place in my opinion although I´ve got several kits.
But I´ve been disappointed to often. EG: FET-Skyline GTR R32- very bad fitting, twisted chassis, bad suspension construction/ FD3S Street µ GREDDY RX7, not the model thats on the package (different lights, no steering, kept very simple, low amount of parts) / R33 GTR-LM the same - no steering very bad fitting, low details.

Well thats just my opinion, I guess the 1/12th BIG SCALE Skylines are a totally different world of FUJIMI...me want one!
But of Course Fujimi is 1st place in variety of models
