Two new RX-8 model kits for ya!

Fujimi is realeasing a couple of new RX-8 kits based on their previous releases.

They are the Amemiya Mu RX-8



and the Veilside RX-8



Both feature only exterior detail, no engine, minimal undersurface and a VERY BASIC interior that in my opinion looks nothing like the real thing.

Enjoy!

I like the Amemiya kit. I usually find the Veilside kits to be a bit overboard, as I do here.

Thanks for the link.

Whoa. The Veilside RX-8 looks like a steam engine train from the angle.

The real one is a turbo, IIRC. Check it out:

Yup. That AT RX-8 jumped from 190 to 260 PS. That's freakin' nuts. The boys from the Land of the Rising Sun are hiding something.

Thanks for the link, Rotary Nut. I dig the cowcatcher on that Veilside.

Came across this the other day - a 1/10 scale (!) radio controlled RX-8 in blue.
