Lovely kits! I'm partial to the FD, myself. You're in for a sweet build, especially when you start tweaking on the 13B rotary.

Bigger turbo. Bigger turbo. Bigger turbo. Bigger turbo. Bigger turbo. :angel:

hey Midnight Racer,

Those are great kits you got there, both have engines and they are really good to assemble, for I got both, My RX7 is in telefonica blue, and the Supra is in black, both tamiya painted.

Couple tips...

Don't use that glue if you don't got to... since you lvl five, you prolly got everything down, but tamiya and that tube stuff just don't work well... its good to use medium dry crazy glue, that works for this stuff.

The yellow I had a hard problem dealing with, you gotta start with many light coats... there is something with yellow that don't bind well.

Im guessing you are doing the yellow in the 7 right? and the blue on the supra? buy tamiya fine white primer for the yellow spry, the gray primer will make green marks on cracks and stuff and its hard to get rid of.

I hope you have fun with those kits as I did. See you around!

I am amazed by these kits.I just opened the box and fell in love.Haven't decided what colour to paint what.I have used that glue a lot and had no problems with it so I plan on using it.

I wouldn't use this glue even if it was free !!!

Trow away this one.. this glue is the first step to scrap a model get some liquid glue

also. the yellow paint is ok, but plan to make over 6 lite coat.. it's hard to have a nice color with it
