What? I don't get it! I thought all Initial D kits were dodgy!

See the picture in my signature??? The plan was to use it and mod it into the Initial D version
I brought that, and now they are coming out with the Initial D version (which I thought they wouldn't)

me=idiot.... yes ditto

Yeah, but if the Initial D kits are no good, you might as well mod it yourself anyway!

Let's just hope I don't end up buying both kits
(Still wondering why I brought another ITR)

hmm.. see if you can find someone that bought the initial d one.. it "may" contain a bunch of extra parts (eg: recaro seats)

so don't start on the Version VI yet.. you may want to sell it off then buy the initial D one...

also, yes.. the initial D series model kits are usually VERY off.. but they're still probably the same model body as the regular one.. so the spare parts and decals are what is worth the money..

maybe i'll buy your version VI off you later

Well, I'm still waiting for HLJ to send it to me
hehe, if you are interested, we can make a deal out of it, but I'll open to box to see what I can do. Since the WRX in the comic doesn't have anything unusual about it. I wonder what extra parts and decal Fujimi will add for the initial d version. (I bet the only difference is the 22B style bumper!)
