(Older) Italeri kits should not be bought, unless:
a) No other kit maker has the topic
b) It's a truck

Just my opinion

well, I did have lots of fun with my 250GTI, and it dates from the 80's 😛 although i am sure there are better 250's in the market (the mistakes in my are fully my own making 😛 )

matt
are the trucks better quality then? cos i did fancy one

TWCRay
The quality of the body is...mweh. However, can't wait to start on this Group B car 🙂

Martin Oostrom
The newer truck molds are pretty decent. As usual; check the timeline!

matt
which group b car do you have TWCRay?

TWCRay
I have got the Stratos. Prepped the body, will start on the paintwork next week.

matt
ah right, i thought u meant an s4 or something, the stratos was a group 4 car, pre group b, looking forward to seeing it finished though, i take it your goin alitalia? or maybe something different?

Martin Oostrom
I received some aftermarket Alitalia decals for my Tamiya kit 😄

TWCRay
Ah, apologies, in my mind this Stratos was also Group B - learned something today 🙂 Got the Italeri one.

i'm gonna buy a hasegawa from plazajapan, it'll be a much better kit and 10£ cheaper too, i buy all my kits from plaza now, as even with postage to blighty, nowhere else can compete with the prices of their kits

yes great price on items but their shipping is overpriced since they work with personal carrier instead of Japan post since the covid...
