Tamiya has recently released a new 1/24 iteration of the Lancia Stratos Turbo, featuring tooling from 1977 alongside new parts introduced this year. The kit showcases a number of advanced features including a detailed interior, the inclusion of a full body figure, as well as steerable front wheels.
Features of the vehicle such as the chin spoiler, roof spoiler, and rear wing are accurately depicted. The kit also includes decals and a painting/decal guide which can be used to create a stunning red and green paint scheme on the vehicle. A variety of sponsorship markings are also included in the kit.
If you are interested in purchasing Tamiya’s new 1:24 Lancia Stratos Turbo, consider buying from some of the following retailers: Tamiya ($37.00 USD), Hobbylinc ($29.19 USD), MegaHobby ($31.45), and Der Sockelshop (€29,25). If you would like detailed photographs, specifications, and more information about this model kit, I recommend visiting both Tamiya’s website and Scalemates.

Tamiya recently released information on its 1/24 scale Subaru BRZ which will soon be available for purchase. With a very sleek design and an affordable price attached, I have no doubts that this will be a very popular kit amongst the modeling community.
The kit includes a number of great features, something that is quite common with Tamiya’s scale model kits. Some of these features include detailed suspension, poseable hood, scale engine, synthetic rubber tires, metal-plated pieces, and many more fantastic features which are sure to make this kit great.
From what Tamiya has released thus far, it appears that the Subaru BRZ is of great quality and full of great detail, something that Tamiya is quite famous for. I am highly impressed by Tamiya’s 1/24 Subaru BRZ and would highly recommend it for any intermediate to master scale modelers.
