I have Tamiya's 1/12 Ferrari 641, the one with the clear body parts and red parts,it also has the Marlboro decals. This kit was never in the Catalog as far as I can tell. I have a 1/43 Rosso of the same car with photo etch and metal parts. I have the Fujimi 1/16 F40LM. An Entex 1/20
Lancia Stratos. Union 1/20 scale Martini Porsche Turbo Carrera RSR(silver racecar with Martini markings) to name a few.

My Hasegawa 348ts is becoming hard to find. I picked up Tamiya's FC and 180SX kits recently, too. They may not be rare, per se, but I know they're not in current production...

It's rare, I found one after about 3 years of looking! Now I want the 4-door version! I have a Subaru Legacy sedan from about '91 that's pretty hard to find.

I only have 3 kits, and they're all old Dunno about rarity.

I have a Fujimi Audi 90,



a Tamiya Renault R5 road car, the model is from 1986 I think. It's one of the earliest Tamiya kits I've seen, #24024 I think

Also, I just found stashed away in my basement a Revell 512TR I started when I was little, and is now about 3% done, poorly executed Probly still salvagable though

I just bought the 600SEL two weeks ago at a local hobby shop in Tokyo. It was stored high up in the shelf, and no one didn't notice, but me. The store owner asked me if I'd build it, and I said, "I only need the engine." He said, "What a shame."
I also bought the Legacy RS on auction last week.

The rare kits I have are all Fujimi Ferraris, such as F355GTB and Challenge, Gunze's Cobra Daytona Coupe, 250GTO w/engine, 250SWB, and Jag E-Type w/engine.
