Porsche 911 Turbo 1988 1/24 Tamiya

This is one that I didn't have in my collection

Son wanted it and it was easy for him to build. Had to glue they stuff that was ment to snap together.

This model is a very beginner level model. Tamiya has very good quality models normally, and this one looks like it's good quality, just very few parts and very little detail - no engine, for example. Fine for the beginner, but if you're wanting something a little more detailed and challenging this is not for you.

Kit was crushed and the main body if the 911 was really split due to bad mold

Very disappointed. Tamiya kits are known for their finely detailed parts and quality engineering. This kit is very much a 'beginner' model.There isn't even an engine, just an engine block molded into the pan. It could have/should have been a better model for the money.It was comparable to one of the AMT models I built when I was a kid.I've built Tamiya motorcycles and a couple of their Formula One cars and, for twenty-five dollars more, they offer a hell of a lot more fun and challenge. Those models were a pleasure to build and they are great to look at afterward.This purchase was big mistake; I'm going to drop it off at my local Goodwill.
