This model kit is one of the many models in Fujimi's high quality 1/24 line up. It includes:
There are many highlights to this kit. First off....it is not a curbside kit and the fine detail on the boxer flat 12 is captured beautifully. The rear deck lid will lift off to show all the wonderful detail in the engine compartment. The clear sprue includes the windows....including side windows which will have to be cut away of you choose to display your finished model with the windows rolled down. The seats are multiple part affairs and in general the interior is very nicely detailed. The stainless steel photo etch contains interior mirror and side mirrors, prancing horse Ferrari emblem for the rear, disc brake rotors, one large wiper blade/arm and a few other parts including 2 different sized rear license plates. The decal sheet has some interesting features as well that caught my eye. You get the 4 yellow and black prancing horse logos for the side fenders, front hood and center of the steering wheel. You also get 4 license plates (2 in each size) with the script "Ferrari BB512" plus you get 2 of the Japanese sized license plate with separate numbers to create your own custom Japanese license plate (obviously geared for Fujimi's domestic market in Japan). You will be required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process. They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes.
