It is diecast, but it is not a model. It's just a diecast replica, with adjustable suspension (height/camber).

[ex-r]

It is made by Hot Works Racing.

Some updates on the new releases.

Fabulous Zero Crown Royal comes with 20" Fabulous Genesis
'05 Kunnyz Chaser comes with 18" Work Emotion CR-Kai's and new '05 decals
4 new 20" VIP wheels to be released: Loenhardritt Orden, Bersaglio Spoke IIIMF, Fabulous Genesis, and Kranze Bazreia
ER34 will have a complete race interior (finally). Not sure about wheels.

A pair of new Chiki Chiki models will sport new 14" Shadow spoke wheels with stretchwall tires.

The Veilside Supras are looking more and more like new models, as they are listed as 1/24 by Aoshima. Not definitive, but at least more promising. Still strange why they wouldn't release a standard Supra first.

The Kranze Bazreia just came out and 1/24 scale wheels just a few months away. Good things as they seem to be keeping in touch with the latest VIP style offerings.

Aoshima is really putting a strain on my budget. I've been wanting to scale down my model spending (since I've got too much piled up), but they just keep putting out more and more things I have to buy. I guess I'm going to have to sell off a bunch of stuff.
