After realizing that my constant whining about Tamiya not re-releasing this kit was useless, I scored this one from ebay. Still factory sealed. $200US. Not a terrible price.

Hi!

Great find!

Here is a few pictures of my own glue bomb that I've restored a few years ago.
It was a very satisfiying experience to bring back this old kit to a decent standard.
I've kept this model from my teenage years, could not bring myself to throw it away.

Good luck with your project!

Wicked Models Nissan GTP......very nice kit. Just waiting for the decals to arrive from DecalDoc now. Before this was the Tamiya F-35. This kit is amazing. All the energy that Tamiya isn't putting into F1 kits is going into their aircraft kits!
