Yes a beauty indeed!
A beauty for sure! A very nice collectable. You've got a great start to a most impressive collection. I bet in time it will be amazing.
Thank you guys for such great comments...it's always a pleasure to hear good thing about the hobby you love the most...because my family just doesn't show the same amount of interest in my vintage cars....my wife thinks it's weird that how I get excited about the cars....she says..Fred dude it's only a plastic toy...what's so special about it....I wish she understood what they mean to me...but i am so happy I can share my feelings you you fantastic mates...thanks again..
Nice story, and yes what a lovely car and worth the wait. I dont know if I'd build it or just keep it NIB, it looks like it would be an absolute pleasure to build. I love waiting for parcels, wether it's a NIB or a wreck for me to restore to glory. The one NIB I want at the moment is a Super Shot, a re-re will do. I plan to just enjoy a box-art build with attention to detail. I think its one of the greatest kits Tamiya as ever released, it comes with all up-grades as standard, a rare for Tamiya. I love the Porsche 959, it looks quite technical and a challenge to build. Enjoy it what ever you do with it my friend.
I bought my 959 NIB back in 2002 before I had even heard of Paypal. God I was nervous after going to the bank to withdraw a load of cash, then changing it into $ and then sticking it all in an envelope to Hong Kong. It must have been 3 or 4 agonising weeks! Looks like you have a real beauty there... Rothmans decals too! Lovely purchase!
A great addition to you collection. I know the feeling when you are anxiously waiting for something to arrive in the mail on a day to day basis...........only to find out it is being held at customs!! I have frequently driven down to my local depot to collect goodies.
nice buy and nice to see one new. Mine arrived yesterday (on clu
Awesome kit , and a Blazer coming too ,excellent
Verrrrrrrry nice tidy looking kit. Now all you have to do is rip open them blisters and get building hahahaa
Wow wow wow, I'd love to own one of those....
Haha! I totally agree! Fortunately I work in a nursing home and look after my parcel mans father, therefore he has my mobile number and I his, being in a small town he comes to me wherever I am!! Great kit mate!!
Wow that's one fine kit!
OCD thank you ....I appreciate it...getting a p.o box is a good idea..but alot of ebayers refuse to ship it to p.o box....they want an paypal or eBay verified adress...but right now I am going through deal with someone...and waiting for blazing blazer nib.....lolz...
Nice
