So Ive been fighting with them for like 2 years to sell me all the pieces at once, and they will not do it, so I finally caved in and started the subscription. Supposedly in 2016, you will be able to buy all pieces at once, so Ill just buy 2 and paint one white.

 

The model looks well worth the cost. The pieces and craftsmanship are very well done. Im going to hold off until I get several shipments, and then start to assemble it. The red Countach model in the picture to illustrate size is the Kyosho 1:12 scale. This is quite alot bigger.

Glad to see that you decided to make the subscription! I was wondering if anyone here would. Are the pieces highly detailed? I was thinking about doing it. I wish it wasn't the WW Countach either, but it's still pretty cool! How much does it cost to get a subscription here? Thanks for sharing!

Wish I did... No one makes one..

 

But this will look really good when it is ready. Not quite your wall piece but a great piece none the less!

LOL, you finally gave in. :icon_mrgreen:

 

Ironically, if you started buying the pieces from Japan, you would have been almost done by now. But I suppose it was my fault on talking you out of it. :P

Yes, I think it will look great, especially with the 1:8 Aventador I have, and Huracan that is coming.

Cool. But insane. Only the Japanese would come up with such a delayed satisfaction game plan on purpose!

 

 

Sucks.. Maybe next year can buy all at once.

I believe the Japanese domestic version is almost done. Someone in Japan is going to list out the entire kit in the Fall. At quite a premium of course but it will be available (all the literature will be in Japanese though).

 

The Japanese are notorious at subscriptions like that: either you collect and build something piece by piece each month or you collect one model out of the entire set/series each month. Quite sure they did that on a Ferrari (don't remember exactly but it was either an Enzo or a F40), a classic Rolls Royce and an Alfa Romeo. I believe they even did that for Star Trek's USS Enterprise too.

As mention in my post above, that's because the Japanese version is done in the Fall. A few people in Japan would have the whole set and ready to sell. It makes sense to make everything available as people either pay a premium and get everything immediately from Japan or they just give up. Better make the profit yourself while you still can than having it lost to elsewhere.
