almost everthing in HWJAPAN had at least 6% discount, but their shipping are slighty expensive than HLJ, so at the end, its about the same price,

BUT if i see anything that has 20% or more discount, i will buy it at HWJAPAN, defintely cheaper if the item is not on sale at HLJ

That happens all too easily, doesn't it...I know what you mean.

I ordered mine this morning.
Went with the SL 63 AMG Option Wheel...
Decided to stay with HLJ as well...been buying off them for quite a few years now, and they always look after me..

PS; I'm pleased Aoshima went with "full detail" too...make a nice change.
I'm pleased they stepped up, where Tamiya appear to be stepping back, or so it would seam....maybe they will come good again....

From HLJ website,

This powerhouse SL is coming from Aoshima this October. This kit can be built either open-top or closed--the choice is yours! Spring suspension and an engine are included, too. This version features optional wheels.
I sure hope they aren't having a lend of us.....but it looks promising...

Overall looks great. The front grill is a little square-ish.

Re: Aoshima Surprises!
Hello,
I'm very interested in this SL kit, can anyone tell me if there is a windowmask inside the kit? I always hate to mask the window trim, it doesn't look that great as done with the mask supplied by the manufacturer.
I'm always wondering if any aftermarket company have already mentioned any etch set for this SL kit?

Tanks guys!
JP
