Fujimi 1/16 Entusiast models

Is they any good? Iīve been glancing over an Fujimi porsche 959 1/16 and itīs semmed to be very detailed. I had also put some interests in their Lamborgini Countach 1/16. Decisions, decisions. Is there anyone who has built one of these? Does Fujimi has an website or is there an good one with plenty of picīs?

I've built the Fujimi 1/16 Ferrari 512BB, it is a nice kit, nice and detailed, but not as much as say a Tamiya 1/12th, would look excellent with some detailing.

The molding is good, but there is quite a lot of flash and injector marks, some in increadibly difficult positions to get at.

I have the 1/16 Ferrari F40 kit of theirs. Lots of detail, but I have found that a lot of work will go into the kit to make it look more realistic. The seats are to big for the scale and the engine needs detail. Overall a very nice kit.
Ive heard the Lamborghini is not as nice as the others. And I have a friend building the Porsche and so far it looks really good.

Re: Re: Fujimi 1/16 Entusiast models

I have Countach 5000 QV and much work I must to do to make it fine. Lots of pin marks too. It's older kit and same is molding. Some things are not clear in instructions too. I stoped it because some things wasn't so clear before I found new reference photos.It will wait for better times.

Thanx guys!!! Just what I expected. I discovered that the Porsche 959 and Ferrari F40 and Ferrari Testarossa kits are the best of the Entusiast series. Still alot to do to the kits to look realistic, but doable. I had also lift the lid of an Lambo box, and it doesnīt impress me. I think Iīll go for an 959 or, if I can find one, F40.
