2fast2furious Gold Supra

[hondaaccordboy21]

I was going to my LHS and I saw the 2fast2furious gold supra kit. You now the one in the opening race. Thats it. Has anybody else seen this or made it. I think its an AMT so i don;t think im gonna get it. Im not a very big fan of AMT. But just a little question.

i think someone said that the ff supra and the 2f2f supra were the same

[pre98zetec]

Same as the F&F supra with different decals and a different body kit..

Dirrerent decals, diffferent hood, same(!) aero parts.

the kit retains the bomex kit from the first film and looks nothing like the movie version

Its actually the same body kit, same rims, same hood (with a clear looking greedy decal) same wing and all...I can post pics if you want. Im building it for a freind of mine.

to me i dont like the 2f2f or ff cars.
i just like them in one colour. i really dont like the ff supra but really like a white bomex supra.

AMT did the kit becouse about 80% of modelers, are not mainstream, they build and buy one model a year, there for the newcomers who don't know alot about cars. but like 2F2F, most people won't even notice that the kit is very innacurate, they just know there building a 2F2F car.

yea AMT does suck. myself have only purchased 3 or 4 amt models. the re kits are not the best to build. they always need extra cutting and work to even fit. i was surprized with my amt elcamino, the kit went together easy, i onyl had to trim front window and some minor things.

OVER ALL AMT IS CRAP

I bought it and then returned it, i bought tamiya models instead!

[gasman03]

wow, if it does'nt say Tamiya or Fujimi on it it seems like every one here hates it. and bashes it to hell, no kit is perfect, and most Tamiya kits have flaws.

AMT is prohibably the highest selling model manufactuer in the USA, (Revell, may have passed them tho). most of there tools are 20-30 years old. and they hafta produce twice the amount of models from the same mold then Tamiya. they also don't have the $$$$$$ to tool up new kits since RC2 seems to have cut there budget in half, and fired most of the kit designers

[pre98zetec]

I agree with Gasman.. There are some really good AMT kit's out there.. I have a few and they have perfect fitment and the mold's are awesome..

the American cars from AMT is cuite good... they due if i say so. but i think revells american cars are better. but i have not tried any other brand not at american cars... and i have only one supra and that is the tamiya one.

[tonioseven]

That's because some of the modellers here are too lazy to develop the basic skills needed to build any kit and make it look good; anyone can throw a Tamiya kit together and make it look alright but how many can take an old AMT kit and make it shine?! Just voicing my unsolicited opinion. Sue me.
