GTR C110 1/18 Model

[nixcars]

Are there any 1/18 diecast models of the GTR C110 available from Kyosho. I have a few of the KPG10 in both race & street models & want the C110's as well.

Nick.

Tower Hobbies show a few GTR's and one KPGC in 1/18. Don't know if those are the only ones that Kyosho has ever made or not.

Look on the third page.

Thanx 2many,

They don't seem to have what I'm looking for.
Maybe they will produce it sometime in the near future.

Hey nixcars,

I was sure they had one but I've since had my confidence in such a thing shattered and it's slowly getting worse as time goes by...

I ordered one in, the guy spoke to his supplier on the phone and the supplier asked whether it was a C10 I wanted, I said no, a C110, I said there IS a C10, but I want the C110, they spoke for a wee while longer and the end result was apparently there was some coming... and it was either going to be in Red or White, which would indicate the C110 as opposed to the C10, however, I'm yet to see any definate pictures of a C110 1/18 diecast so I'm not sure.

I've paid for it, it just hasn't come in yet, when it does if it is indeed a C110 and not just a C10 or something else entirely, I'll let you and Alfadog know the part number, as he wants one too :) oddly enough.

[Alfadog]

Fancy that eh?

I have resorted to making a couple of paper Kuru Kuru cars ROFL ROFL ROFL and my little 1/24 which I paid far too much for on Ebay.

[Alfadog]

And my big paper model!

[kyteler]

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
ROFL ROFL ROFL

That paper car is awesome.

Is that 1/24th a little RC car?

I've seen a few pictures of similar ones that aren't RC cars but yours looks to have a wee aerial.

[nixcars]

Lachlan, you must have been the one bidding against me on ebay last year for the one in the case. I've since got the model but without the mag wheels.

[Alfadog]

Oh sorry, I got confused.. The one in the case is 1/43, and the RC is a Char-G. Great fun! And it even has Watanabes! ROFL

It's modified with a smaller gear wheel and a more powerful engine! ROFL

Edit: NICK!!!!!! Was that you! hahahah you mug, my pride got to me and I wouldn't let it slide... pity you can buy them new for about half that :stupid: :stupid: Small world.

[nixcars]

The only other models I have are 1/24 by Fujimi from Japan that have to be assembled.
I have a pic of these but don't know how to attach it here.

Nick.

[Alfadog]

Bit of a test!

[nixcars]

I'll try posting the pic again Lachlan.

[Alfadog]

Ahh it worked!

Nice models - whenever I buy a model I never end up making them unfortunately! I hope you have more initiative than me ROFL

[nixcars]

It worked, here's another.

Nick -
I know it's been over two years now... but looks like Kyosho were listening when you asked about a 1:18 Kyosho KPGC110 as they have since released the model. I got my hands on one earlier this year and it is without a doubt sensational. Kyosho seem to keep improving their quality as time goes on... I have been told you can buy them in Australia but I haven't been to a hobby shop in a long time. I got mine on eBay a few months ago. After a long time searching I finally got a KPGC10 and KPGC10 #15 Takahashi Works car too. When it rains it pours.

You guys are so lucky. I can't find any die-cast cars for my GC10, much less a PGC10. The 4 doors are just not as well known as the 2 doors. I have 2 1/43 KPGC10s and a mini KPGC10 and a couple of KPGC10 plastic models, but no PGC10 or GC10. Well, it's off to the local toy store to try and find one for Alan in celebration of his newest acquisition. I saw them . . . . red stripes and blue stripes. Can't remember the number on the red one, but bloody sure the blue one was 15.

[kyteler]

sakijo, I'm fairly certain both Aoshima and Fujimi do 1/24 plastic kitset GC10's. Would you like me to get you some part numbers?

[Alfadog]

Lucky? LUCKY??? At least you can just go to your local hobby store to find models! :P

This is the Aoshima GC10 : http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS31643

Out of Stock.
And by the way; You are all very lucky.
Why? Because you are complaining (in jest, I'm sure) about finding the MODEL version of the real thing-at least you can get (or have) the REAL thing without paying outragous fees.
That is what I consider lucky...
Cool Kits though, I may just have to order one.

[sakijo]

Thanks for the links. I guess I have to go looking for these in some old shop in some little town somewhere.

[nixcars]

Thanx Alfa, I'll be adding one of these to my collection & lets hope they make the race version as well.

Have a look at the BIANTE (http://www.biante.com.au/product_16901.htm) (derived from B&T! true) website. They are in Cahoots with Kyosho and have a 1/18 KPGC110 green race/image car under development.

Went shopping on the weekend for a Kyosho Skyline GT-R KPGC110 1:18 scale, but they only had a Silver one, and it looked like it had defect in the paint, so I didn't get it. I was after a white one, and was going to get them to order it, but they said they didnt make one :stupid: and I couldn't be bothered argueing with them.

Picked up some 1:24 plastic kits instead.
C10 GT-R, Cherry X-1-R, toyota 2000GT (They also had the Fuji 24 hour race winner version). The C110 GT 4 door I already had, but thought i'd add a pic anyway. They had another one of them if anyone wants one, let me know.

[Alfadog]

Just FYI guys if you haven't seen already,
Kyosho have now released the racing KPGC110 in green or blue. :)

[sblake01]

I'm bidding on one right now that I probably won't win.

[bonzelite]

i'll be rooting for you.

[Team_Dat]

mr cammo, where did you pick those models up from????
i'd love one of the 2000GT ones :laugh:

[Mr Camouflage]

Stanbridges hobby shop, but I think I cleared them out of old datsun models. Also got some others from a place in the city in Piccadilly arcade. It looks like a small shop with model cars in the front window, but theres an upstairs section with plastic model kits.
