Feels like Xmas came very early this year!!

[UKSupraboy]

Just got these in the post, only 3 or 4 days from ordering. The missus has been very quiet since reading the invoice, but hey, I just can't wait to get started.







The resin castings are gorgeous but the white metal needs a lot of cleaning up before I can begin.
I also got a set of the Au Cerumo decals and plan on using these bodies as a reference to convert a Tamiya to the later spec.

Will keep you all posted when the progress begins.

so when can we expect to see some progress pix?

a.

[The Lambrusco Kid]

Build'em out of box without any paint !

That'll be hardcore dude!

when i look resin kit and what you get for the price.. damn it's expensive for nothing

but you are very lucky.. they look very great (but at this price, i would buy a Mclaren F1 )

[UKSupraboy]

Yeah VRIC, they're a bit expensive but unfortunatelt it's the only way to get the subject matter that I want. I have owned Supras off and on since 1989 when I bought my first 'Celica Supra' and despite owning many Jap sports cars in between the Toyotas, these are what I keep going back to, have a passion for.

Just a pitty Tamiya never updated their racers, good models but the cars are 6 or 7 years old now. I guess it's all down to licensing in the end.

Good buy, they look like excellent kits. I don't think I'd get a purchase like that past the Credit Card Authorisation Officer - she'd kill me!
