NEW RELEASE: Aoshima S-Parts 19" wheels are here!

[malsheem]

This is for the wheel people out there. Aoshima's new S-Part wheels are now out. For change, they got the release date right, 31st, just like they told me (though they did push it back twice to get here). And surprise! They're 19" (according to the box, in scale might be a different story). Meaning most likely they are completely new molds, not just reboxed from their older car kits. Can't wait to see them.

Just thought I'd share. Get them quick.

19" S Parts? that is unheard of! I've found most S parts are 16" or smaller! This should be cool!

do you know where i can find box art or actual pics??

The TE-37's for some reason won't be out until Monday.

I'll post some actual pics when I get mine.

hlj said they're not in until february! they chose good wheels though! i really like the volk ce28.

[digitalbanzai]

Going to have to get some NT-03 for my next project, if you can guess what that may be :-p

[nis.k.a.]

The Volks are 19", damn it. I was hoping they would be 18". Oh well, I guess they'll have to work. HLJ needs to hurry up and get theirs so they can EMS them to me. For those that have been waiting it's about time they are released!

Well, technically, Monday will be February, so it is accurate. HLJ always gets their new releases slower than others. Strange.

Yup, once those TE-37's come in, my wheels will be EMS'ed to me. Not from HLJ, so no 1 week of "processing" time.

Perfect timing too since I got some new kits recently; RX7, 300ZX, Sileighty.

Muhahahahahahahaha! First I find out I'll get 7 sets of 19" VIP wheels, now 10 sets of these!!! Life is pretty damned good right now!!

Ya, I was hoping they would be 18's also. Oh well, good thing I pre-ordered a set of TE37s and CE28Ns once I saw them on HLJ which was probably around early October. Looks like they might be pretty popular.

I won't say the number of sets for my happiness. Just saw the guys in the white coats in the hall carrying a straight-jacket. They might hear.

[ShOrtyOC714]

Yes!! Finally there out! I have been waiting for 2months for the CE28's and TE37's.

[willimo]

When someone gets the CE28's, measure them please. They look a lot like the Konig rims on my 1:1, and if they aren't the full 19" I might be able to use them.

Just got the box picture of TE-37.
