I'm not gonna lie, that looks super super fun. I think I might get one to make up for not having the actual car... :(

yup. they're about $2.50 per bottle and you need about 10 of them.

What else do you need to build the model? Does the kit include tools?

the kit doesn't come with any tools. you'll need some tweezers, cutting pliers, tamiya cement, tamiya paint, toothpicks, and various paint brush sizes. i may have forgotten one or two more supplies but those should be the important ones.

Cool. The Tamiya car models aren't too expensive but the cost of paint and tools seem significant.

That R34 is pretty cheap.

I wish the car's ride height and wheel offset were right about there from the factory. :P
