not model car, but must see 1/24 R/C Aoshima Estima VIP

guys, although I think it is a bit offtopic, but it sure has some relationship with modeling world.

Aoshima just released the FIRST R/C VIP 1/24 van.

I have been waiting for 1/24 R/C Aoshima Estima VIP be released for over 4 months (i.e. since last december) , what the xuck....... Aoshima keeps delaying the shipment and production, donno what the problem they go into, but seriously they keep producing nice and beautiful kits.......

Black VIP Estima: http://hobbyworld.aoshima-bk.co.jp/s...code=SKY170932



White one: http://hobbyworld.aoshima-bk.co.jp/s...code=SKY170949

The hlj is selling at 6980yen, and the hobbyworld is selling at 6561 yen. It is a bit cheaper than the Miniz, and it comes with 19"rims, Kenstyle Bodykits, Front and rear lamps, and prepainted white or black depends on the remote controller frequency you want. and you can adjust the ride height!!!

just like to share that I just got the Aoshima 1/24 RC VIP Estima.

Pros:
1) Car looks cool than I thought.
2) With signal light and hazard lights......
3) nice orange headlights
4) Can adjust the ride height during in motion

Cons:
1) no "red" tail light
2) speed is slower than I thought ( slower than a non-modified MiniZ)
3) Paint looks good, very shiny, but some cracks near the edge.

This 1/24 is amazing!! Is the body and the rest of the things already prepaint ?? But however 6980yen is "Ho Gui Wor!" How much did you pay for that? A 1/24 Aoshima Estima VIP cost about $50 Singapore dollars = $200+ Hongkong dollars. I wish to buy that for a long time.
