Description: I need to clear some space on my shelves, so I have to part with some of my collection. THIS IS MY LAST ONE! Rumor has it, Tamiya has a roomful of craftsmen (and craftswomen) in the Philippines building their excellent kits into their Masterwork Collection series. They take the standard Tamiya kit and build it, paint it and detail it like it was meant to be. They put it in a custom display case and voila – you have a Masterwork that has all the stunning detail and awesome precision that you could have produced yourself. I know I could build them this well if I just had the skill, the tools, the patience, the time and the experience of building the same kit a dozen times. This would be appreciated by GT Racing enthusiasts or anyone into precision modeling at its finest. I didn’t know much about this particular Grand Touring racer, other than it is eye-poppingly stunning. Here is some background from the Tamiya (manufacturer's) website: The 2004 JGTC Season's Dramatic Final Race The Calsonic Impul Z raced in the 2004 Japan GT Championship, Japan's most popular racing series. One of four Nissan Z machines used in 2004, the Calsonic Z was piloted by Benoit Treluyer and Yuji Ide to a thrilling victory in the final round at Suzuka. With a 500hp V6 twin turbo engine loaded in the front and sleek aerodynamic form, the Calsonic Impul Z is a monster machine powered to the max. Following the release of the NISMO Z, this is your chance to own a complete JGTC collection. · Accurate 1/24 scale replica-quality display model of the 2004 JGTC Calsonic IMPUL Z.· Overall length: 195mm, Overall width: 84mm· All distinctive aspects of the GT racing 350Z have been carefully reproduced, including widened fenders and extended front nose and rear tail.· Nylon meshing for front air intake adds extra texture to the model.· Die-cast under panel adds extra weight, fully capturing the energy and power of the racing vehicle. Under panel comes pre-coated in black for instant assembly.· Mirrors and Nissan emblem reproduced with metal transfers.· Realistic pad-printed tire markings.· Display base with nameplate included. This collectible is in a sturdy, well-decorated box about 11” x 6.5” x 5” that provides a fantastic view of the contents. As you can see from the pictures, the box is in pristine condition and is still sealed with tape disks, so I consider it factory sealed and absolutely gift-ready. This item contains a completely and professionally finished, highly detailed plastic and metal model of the Calsonic Impul Z racer from the 2004 Japan GT Championship, along with a protective display case and stand. I use eBay Managed Payments, but I no longer ship internationally. Auction winner pays the winning bid and for a limited time, I am offering this stunning item with $10 Flat Rate Shipping in the US! No reserve and a low starting bid. Check out my other great auctions and listings for combined shipping. Good luck! Those familiar with my listings can tell that I really enjoy these products and the modeling hobby. I like to provide more than just the bare facts about the items, trying to lead you into discovering more about the subjects and optimizing your builds (if that is your goal). I started out picking up models that I was interested in, with the eye toward building them when I had time. Always a bargain-hunter, I accumulated many more than I can build, so I found myself in a Collector status (sounds nicer than a hoarder). As I am sure you have noticed, my items are almost always sealed and in mint condition (I call them Gift-Ready), since I only open them when I am ready to build them. Now I enjoy making these products available to my fellow modelers; both Builders and Collectors. For the Builders, there are probably better (at least cheaper) ways to add to your project lists than buying from me, but you know you are getting top quality. For Collectors, my goal is to save you a few bucks over the competition for the same item in factory sealed and collectible (or resellable) condition.
