Kyosho 1/18 model

Here it is (price is still good, I wonder for how long?):

I have exactly the same model, silver Kyosho 1/18. Outstanding quality!

The Kyosho's are THE best when it comes to detail and quality that I've seen so far.

But, beware of the last minute bidders....although this is the LHD model that has been discontinued.

You can still get the yellow LHD model here, you'll have to go to the third page:

I guess it's worth a bit more than the 60 dollars for the yellow model since there is only one of the two colors offered in the LHD, but how much more is up to the person bidding.

Tower still has the rallye cars available as well.

Good price, and still no bids. Strange.

Does anyone else find it weird that the last one mentioned says "Brand new in un-opened box" yet.. the picture shows the car sitting all on it's own without a box to be seen.

Obviously this could mean that he has more than one car and is shwoing the one that isn't in a box, still though... they make no mention to indicate that.

I was wondering the same thing Kyteler, so I bid on the first one...:devious:

hehe, got it for $49.50......:classic:

I was really expecting a lot more bidding on it since it has been discontinued for quite a while.

Nice job! I'd love one of those silver ones... you know, to be sentimental... :sleepy:

There's a 1:18 Scale Kyosho '11' 1971 Safari Rally Car for sale on one of the NZ auction websites.

I think the 'Buy Now' is $150NZD

Unfortunately I have other things that require money more urgently than my meager model collection.

Wow, that's a high price on the Ralley car.....

That one is still available, and by the Tower Hobbies site it's about 84NZD (60US) not including shipping.

I'm planning on adding one of the two ralley cars later, and maybe the maroon ZG model and then call it quits for a while, by then, I should be able to work on the real one sitting in the shop.

On a slightly different note to the topic title, I'm waiting for the following other diecasts to arrive at my door. :classic:

Prince Skyline GT-B

Nissan Skyline KGC10

Nissan Skyline KGC110

Nissan Skyline DR30

It'll be a happy day in my house once they're all home :love:

Yeah 2ManyZs, I have a feeling we get ripped in NZ but oh well.. if I only had a credit card probably best that I dont though

Nice! You certainly won't be disappointed with the Tomica Limited Prince - very good quality if you haven't got one already!

Ive found a few 240z models that some guy in jap put together. I think they look amazing. That red one has a custom front airdam that the guy made from putty.
