Tamiya Astra

[Fizzychops]

Hi All,

I am going to attempt to buuild the Tamiya Astra in 10 days or so. Are there any tricks or pitfalls with this kit I should look out for? How complicated is the door opening mechanism?
Doubt I will go to town with the CF but I do have a S27 PE set for it.

Thanks all for any advice and look forward to some pics in the coming weeks.

Thanks

Just finished mine, check it out here. IMO the doors are a major pain, I go into details in the thread.

There have been several others built by other AF members. Probably the best write up is from Primera man. It can be found here.

Good luck with the kit and in the future you can try the search feature. There are tons of threads on this site with useful information. Some are just buried pretty deep!

Don't forget to start a thread in the project portion of the site and keep us posted with some pics!!
