Tamiya is to release the latest variant of the
Toyota GR86 in the 1:24 Sports Car Series.
While the lightweight front-engine
and wide body are carried over from the first
generation '86 (2012), the new Toyota GR 86
is powered by a bigger 2.4-litre horizontally
opposed four-cylinder DOHC engine capable
of 235bhp for powerful performance. This car
also employs air outlets, side sill spoilers, and
other parts to bring improved aerodynamic
efficiency and steering.
Kit spec
- Length: 178mm, width: 74mm, height: 55mm
- The model recreates the air outlets, side sill
spoilers, and the other aerodynamic parts
for more realism
- Its succinctly captured suspension features
front strut and rear double wishbone detail
- The 2.4-litre horizontally opposed four-
cylinder DOHC engine is faithfully depicted
- Differences between its sister car the
Subaru BRZ (ZD8) are accurately captured:
front bumper, lights and more
- Wheels are paired with solid synthetic
rubber tyres for a realistic look

NEW FROM SCIFIMODELS
1:6 Return of the Jedi
EV-9D9 droid
Uttering the
lines “you are a
protocol droid,
are you not?” in
'Return of the
Jedi', EV-9D9 has long been a
favourite of many fans. Now,
thanks to 3D printing technology,
you can have your very own
EV-9D9 kit to assemble and
paint. It's an expensive process
but well worth the outlay for
such a classic droid.

COMING SOON FROM ZVEZDA
1:72 C-130J Hercules
The second variant of the famous Hercules
transport aircraft is on its way from Zvezda,
with new engines and elongated fuselage.
www.hobbyco.net
ON THE WAY FROM TAKOM
These two new releases from Takom are very imaginative
indeed, depicting two WW2 German Flak towers, sensibly
scaled at 1:350, but even at this scale the larger kit still
measures 234mm square by 113mm high! Fascinating subjects
to choose for model kit production.
