I got this from Japan Booster for $30, shipped. What a deal for a box set of six cars.
I already had the Celica XX(double "X") & the 240ZG from the series. Got them loose on eBay. Those two were the cars I had to have. I was bit taken by the low quality of the cars, but considering the deal I got(I want to say little over $20-something for both.), I didn't care all that much. Sought after car of the set is the CR-X. But being fan of the manga as a kid, I knew that this Kyosho CR-X, even with the correct paint-job & rear wing, it was a front wheel drive CR-X. Not the midship/RWD from the story. For $30 for the whole thing though, I was like "why not?".
Here's the surprise. While I bought the set mainly for the CR-X(this car alone used to go for WAY over $30 by itself), when I finally got around to opening the box nearly two months later, it was the Toyota 2000GT that got all my attention.
Quality is great, casting seems perfect to me. If TLV did 2000GT today, I doubt they do much better job.
Great 1/64 representation of a true classic.
2000GT looks great a6, no doubt. Digging that 240Z as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat deal, killer set. Well done.
Thank you so much Jarrod!
ReplyDeleteHow much does thay 2000gt cost today? If you were to sell it?
ReplyDeleteYou can probably find them pretty cheap. My wild guess, around $10 or so, plus shipping. I usually wait around for good deal to come by. eBay is your best bet.
