Fujimi 1/16 Alfa Romeo T33 (ES)

Does anyone have/know this kit?
I came across it ny accident and I admit I'm drooling
But is it any good? Can you tell me anything about it?

Re: Fujimi 1/16 Alfa Romeo T33 (ES)

I have this kit...it's very much like all the 1/16 Es kits in that it has minimal detail but plenty enough to work with. The body shape is nice which is most important.

The most disappointing aspect of the kit is the wheels....they aren't deep dished enough which practically ruins the looks of the whole car.

I plan to replace the wheels in mine with the BBS mesh type from the 1/16 Koenig 512BB...I picked one that had been poorly built just for parts.

Thanks guys!

It does look kind of bare, but on the other hand.....that body!! and offers some great potential I suspect....

Hmmm....I will have to think this one hard asking price is around 40USD. Reasonable?

$40 is a very fair price.

Considering I paid 3 x more I'd say take it!
And yes the body is amazing!
