First of all, this kit does not come cheap price tag, and is a new company which came out a plastic Ford GT in LM. The price tag is around 7800yen, and of course if you get locally or Hong Kong hobbyeasy, it's alot more cheaper.
When it arrived on my table, the box is big and packaging is good, seal like Heller, Italeri kit.
After open up, first thing come up most people mind is "Is that another Heller kit?" Plastic are the same, and if you buying it, please removed the clear part from the rest of them. The bag was not seal(that made them seal the box).
Parts come in 7 spurs, a 2 set of tires, 2 sheet of decals, 1 bag of p-cap and spring (for suspension) and well print instruction sheet.
But it does have Heller plastic kit technology. Same type of white thick plastic, but less flasher and punch mark. Flash is nothing to most modeler, spend alittle more time and it could be complete cleaned. It come with a medium size sheet of photo-etch set. Mainly are for the mesh and small detail.
The decal was printed by Catograf. It included 2 sheets. 1 for the sponser, and the other carbon, kelvar sheet (including the mirror mask). The decal on sponser is superb, there are chrome lining on some area of decal too.
This kit detail is not so sharp like some big Japanese brand, The tires is not rubber too.
My giving point to this kit are: 7/10
Pro: Decals are superb, photo-etch also good.
Con: plastic too thick and crisp. Detail are blunt, and tire might crack after years.
Overall: The kit is ok to build and the price tag on it is reasonable. If only there are aftermarket photo-etch and detail support, it can be very beautiful kit after built.
