Dear fellow CLer's, I came across this ebay website and found a 1/24 scale Junction GS car. I was wondering the quality of this model and if it is worthy of purchasing. If you do own one, could you please post pics of the final product so I could see the fit and finish? thanks.

Nice find

 

im gonna order that ****

now or tomorro w

 

not easy to do. from all the models i have made, tamiya is always the best. i forgot the company for this already (fujimi?), but you need to work hard on it

i know it, i have it up on my shelf

 

Could you pls post your pic of your shelf? thanks. I would love to see the quality.

 

hahaa, bunch of boxes they are all not done yet!

 

is the auction still on? i want this kit!!

 

That kit is made by Aoshima. I have one but didn't build it yet. I did build the Auto Couture Aristo. If you want the JP kit to look like the box pic, you have to mod the suspension though. Here is a pic of the AC one.

 

i really really want this kit..where else could i get it?

nevermind i found a place thats located in manhattan that has it

 

damn i need to get one of these...i need a GS on the shelf! haha

 

Thats HOTT!!!! where can i get one of those and what do you mean i need to mod the suspension, do i need to cut the springs or something? LOL

 

You can get these kits from online stores, or ebay. I used to get mines from HLJ.com, but I get my kits from a local hobby shop now. For the suspension, the Junction Produce, Falcon Aristo, and the Explosion Aristo have fixed suspension that sit just about the top of the tires. If you want it to tuck the tire, you may need to mod the wheel wells, and susp. The Auto Couture Aristo (pictured above) and Celsior have independant moveable height suspension that can slam to the ground or 3 wheel,ss,fb. Any of the "luxy" kits have the moveable height suspension. Good luck on your search. Post some pics when you build one.
