I got the tamiya, my first one starting from scratch. It was a lot easier than I thought it was gunna be especially since you almost can't mess the paint up. Paint matched and wheels looks great. I love the 3D headlights and taillights, put it on a 1/10 drifter and way to much fun

I love the Mini-Z bodies!! They are really high quality and look great on display. Looking forward to adding the 86 towards my collection, which I so far have a RX7, Nismo S15 Silvia, F430, and AE86.

I bought the Tamiya body for my Team Associated TC6.1, which is hardly bargain priced...the body was about $30 but the car under it was about $1200...sad thing is i havent raced it yet.





Here's whats under it...
