Ordered 14 Tamiya kits from RCJAZ. All items arrived in good condition including the original kit box. Items must have also been well taken care of before sale. I'm happy with that. The customer service team is also quick to respond to emails as per m
These parts require careful handling, cutting and bending. Some experience with fine-scale modelling is recommended, along with small files and tweezers for accurate placement.
Use CA or PVA suitable for metal-to-plastic joins, a sharp hobby knife, fine needle files and a bending tool or flat pliers. A small amount of flux and solder is not required for this set.
The parts are designed to complement the compatible Lotus Type 79 kit. You may need to trim or adjust some mounting points for a precise fit depending on your build approach.
