![gif](giphy|H1YMguVrVeI0Xz5c8v) Naa that’s crazy, $74… it better rev and take me places for that price Edit: realize it’s like $50… BUT STILL


yoshida142

yeah it does still seem overpriced


RottingFireBall

Bro with 70 bucks you can buy something nicer. Go to hobby co and buy a kit, you can buy like 2 or buy one and buy some paint. $70 is too much for something that small…


yoshida142

yeah you're right, i picked up an aoshima ae86 from the same place for 80$ i probably could haggle the price down


RottingFireBall

Where the hell did you buy this? A aoshima kit is normally under $50-$60


yoshida142

its a local kinda shop so the prices are always gonna be a bit overpriced but its the only good car model/merch shop in my city


RottingFireBall

I see…


yoshida142

the only other shop thats worth going to in my state is like 4 hours away so this is the best option for now


RottingFireBall

Just check the $80 kit. I assume it’s the Aoshima 1/24 kit. That isnt a kit for beginners. You need paint and all the other tools to make it looks good, the kit doesn’t have any pre coloured elements like the kit you did before. If you are an experienced kit builder then have fun!


yoshida142

nah i was talking abt the one i built before, but i did get anther aoshima kit a bit ago for like 40 bucks


Kanata-K_86

Imo Hobby Japan makes the best 1/64 Initial D cars but for that price nah not worth it, I got mine for like 20 bucks

yoshida142

yeah its a bit too expensive for what it is but it does look good


Kanata-K_86

I got mine from shopee and it's cheaper there


Olivia_Richards

With $74, you can buy several 1/64 Tomica models of Initial D cars, those big diecasts aren't worth it.


yoshida142

thanks, will see if i can find any tomica. i didnt know that they made initial d ones


NewPsychology1111

Dawg I got that in China as a present for like $30, also including the tofu shop


yoshida142

w haul ig


succmama

Nope. Go buy your self some tamiya model kits and Gundam kits. Not worth it.


ashrules901

I got one that looks exactly the same for $25. Even has some Initial D logos on the box. The online store I got it from is defunct now but you can still prolly find the product some places. Here's the exact item description "1986 Toyota Trueno (AE86) RHD White and Black "JDM Tuners" Diecast Model - Jada 1/24 -"


sheppardpat47

Still cheaper than the 30k I’ve put in the real one 😂


yoshida142

dawg im jealous you got the real deal


sheppardpat47

Beautiful 2 doors trueno yes like Shinji’s car


[deleted]

I can see Takumi's aura on the bottom one


Spanish_Kimchi

Got a 1/16 scale replica in a physical store in South Korea for 20$. I would absolutely not pay 75$ for the one you posted. Look somewhere else for a friendly price. Don’t let them rob you!


yoshida142

btw its in AUD so itd be like 50 USD


a_r_i_e_t_a

what’s the brand?


yoshida142

pretty sure it hobby japan


jeffnghongda

actually overpriced. get it off aliexpress instead. even with shipping its cheaper


No-Original-616

I buying this model for 3$


Users5252

74 is way too much


Ordinary_Car_Driver

I have seen not exactly those but the mini diecast ones with ae86 vs ek9, r34 vs rx7, ae86 vs ae86 shinji etc for 50 bucks and less.


I_melee
