Hasegawa 20559 - 1/24 Toyota Starlet EP71 Turbo-S (3 Door) Middle Version 1987

This 1/24 scale plastic model kit represents the Middle Version 1987 Turbo-S three-door Toyota Starlet EP71, issued as a limited release intended for hobbyists and scale collectors.

The Toyota Starlet EP71 was a compact hatchback produced in the mid-1980s, recognized for its light-weight chassis and modest-displacement engines. The Turbo-S variant added a turbocharged option and sport-focused trim that provided both noticeable performance cues and distinct styling within the EP71 range. The EP71 platform covered both three-door and five-door body styles and was designed as an economical, city-friendly sport compact of its era.

As a 3-door Turbo-S representation, the kit concentrates on correct exterior proportions and period bodywork. Assembly should follow standard 1/24 scale modelling techniques; paint and decals are needed to achieve the intended finish. This limited release emphasizes reference detail and visual accuracy rather than intricate mechanical features.
