Aoshima new 2003 fall-winter

[hirofkd]

1/24 Bomex Supra (Revell rebox? but 1/24...)
1/24 R34 GT-R Nismo (Could be all new or R33 retool)
1/24 R34 GT-R (Could be all new or R33 retool)
1/24 Accoord Wagon (Not sure which)

I'm confirming the details now.

Thats cool I would like to see how aoshima makes the r34 and the supra too since i like there models.

[Carrera RS]

Accord wagon? hmmm... hope it's the new one!

RS

[ex-r]

Here is a picture of the bomex supra. Looks nice.



Here is the accord wagon. I think they are coming out with 2 types. This one is like the Wings west one, but with some extra stuff like seats and different mirrors. The other one is of the new accord wagon.



Actually the new accord wagon is being made by fujimi. Here is a picture.

I hope they do a good job with that Supra. I'm guessing the R34 kit will have many variants in the future, i wonder if they'll do the C-West version???

cool.. will really be a good one .aoshima kit are nice.
but two thing that will be sad i'm sure:
- No engin
- The vent on the hood will probably be decals as the bomex RX7 sport compact.. but hey! bring on the dremel !

[tonioseven]

I'm very interested in seeing Aoshima's interpretation of the R-34! It would be cool if they gave us an engine!

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Supra is confirmed to be AMT/ERTL rebox. (dammit!)

However, R34 GT-R is all new tool. Suspension is using actual spring parts, just like their Cersior/Lexus kit, and the tail lights are molded in clear red and clear orange.
Also, various aero parts are planned besides Nismo.

Oh yeah, more skyline. I better start saving $$ now for all the new release skyline.

Must get the aoshima NISMO R34 and Xanavi from tamiya.

What the fuck?! They put the AMT crap into a Fujimi box and sell it? Are they mad or what the hell do Fujimi think?

So, Chris, hurry up and finish your Bomex bodykit. BTW, when will we see new products from you and what will it be?

[XspudX]

Awesome. I think I'll plan on buying a couple of the new Aoshima R34's when they come out.

aoshima...aoshima!.

That Supra looks almost like the Fast and the Furious one. Looks good.

[malsheem]

Didn't want to start a new thread, so I'm adding to this one. This one is for all the wheel guys out there. Aoshima is also releasing some new wheels this winter, too.

Volk Racing TE-37's
Volk Racing CE-28
Enkei NT03+M
Racing Hart Type-CR

HLJ is now accepting pre-orders on them. Already placed my pre-order.

I tried looking for info on what size they'll be, but found nothing. I'm guessing/hoping 18's. Anyone got any info on this?

[hirofkd]

Still no info about the wheel size. I hope it's 18 or 19 in. (is there real 19" TE-37?)

Watch out for the Bomex Supra. It is 1/25 AMT/ERTL rebox, confirmed by Aoshima. Don't waste money on this if you are not a Japanese resident.

Accord Wagon is supposed to have extra parts, such as gauges, nitro, bucket seat, gt-wing and custom graphics.

I expect those extra parts to be found in other kits, such as RX-7 and Skylines.
