*Solid one-piece resin cast Super-Deformed version of the Mazda Lantis Coupe.
*This item is a resin-cast car model kit. Cement is not required, but painting is necessary.
* BA Astina Hatch shape only, no BGs or BJs

once you've painted it, it'll look roughly like this

I have my own Passion Rose touch-up paint and aint gonna pay you to paint it for me

[BigMal]

Maybe Jynx can also get some Noble Green paint when they repair
his car that we could use as well.

[Cosmo Dude]

BBBWWWHAHAHAHAA!!! That's GOLD!! The last pic is the funniest!!

Well done mick.. :lol:

Adam

Yeah, If the tailpipes were any bigger they would be close to scale for lantis :lol: :lol:

[Trav]

If you look hard enough through the window tinint, I think you can see cream leather interior ;) :P

[ABC]

That's Gold Mick. All it needs now is a dirty big intercooler out the front!! :lol:

[sik astina]

hahahaha :lol: i knew you guys would like it :lol: :wink:

[Rupewrecht]

i tried to get some of those Herpa HO scale 323Fs a while ago, but everyone was sold out it seemed - even overseas... :? :(

and that white one in the second pic is the one i'm trying to get at the start of this thread

[Sandyman]

wait a tic...lantis coupe?

[Cosmo Dude]

wait a tic...lantis coupe?

The hatch is called a five door coupe :? I think it's someone at Mazdas idea of a cruel joke :?
A coupe would have only two doors and a big fat 'C' pillar.

Rod

[KittyKatSmack]

Hey guys,

Am still alive and kicking....

Any spares on that order Dan? I would truly like one of those models you ordered.... purty please? *flutters eyelashes*
I even have my touchup paint, but would get some of that colour shift stuff *grins*.
Any chance that body will fit a BitCharG? r/c heaven here I come!!!
I want I want I want......
sorry I haven't been around lately......
the usual!
but if you get stuff like that, count me in!!!!
everytime!!!!

Ta.

daKitty =^^=

[Aaron]

Sik,
Those 1/87th scale ones you have pics of were made by a German company "Herpa". They're kinda made for model Railroad enthusiasts in smallish numbers, so you gotta hang out with train buffs ;)

1/87th is HO scale IIRC. The manufacturer no longer has stock.

There may be some available somewhere I guess... You shouldn't pay more than 6 euros for them I think.

Dan - Are the deforms coming from HLJ?

[Rupewrecht]

well, i've ordered some, but they were out of stock. It'll pretty much be a case of 'maybe' as apparently the resin cars are made in job lots of 1000 or so, and whethere they have any at the factory or not...who knows!

will keep you updated tho

Aaron, yep - from HLJ

[KittyKatSmack]

Thanks Dan!

mwah!

:x

[Dazz]

how long till we get the deformed lantis?

[KittyKatSmack]

well, i've ordered some, but they were out of stock. It'll pretty much be a case of 'maybe' as apparently the resin cars are made in job lots of 1000 or so, and whethere they have any at the factory or not...who knows!

will keep you updated tho



Dazz ~ according to his post, I think our Rupe is trying the best he can, and as soon as he has some news, I am sure he will let everyone know!

Relax man, in with the good air, out with the bad air!

and do not speak whale at me unless you are a looooooong way away ok?

[ABC]

Relax man, in with the good air, out with the bad air!

Thanks Dr KittyKat! :D

[Dazz]

its cool kitty kat im relaxin, i was just seeing when we were gunna get them no rush though

[Aaron]

HLJ where Dan is sourcing them is a little dodgey (ie they sell out of stuff and then say it's discontinued rather than try to source more) - but unfortunately they are pretty much the only place he can source them from.

I used to do a lot of import/export through companies like them with similar types of things and never encountered the resin cars anywhere but there.

I will contact one of my other suppliers though and see if we can source them elsewhere (I'll pass details onto Dan if I track them down)..
There is hope...

Unfortunately Herpa doesn't make the 1/87 cars anymore either and there's no stock anywhere in the world that I can tap into.

A.

[Rupewrecht]

ahh interesting :)

as you said, it seems to be the only place with them, as i looked at a coupla other japanses mobs..

that would be great Aaron - good luck :)

[Rupewrecht]

Cartoon Lantis are still on backorder..sahprise sahprise sahprise...

but i ordered a few other things in the same order and they've arrived...

[Pernod]

Any rough idea what would it be worth to send on to NZ (all up)?

[Rupewrecht]

well interstate is about $3.20AUD, so i'd imagine overseas would be about double that? i dunno

i'll find out and let you know

[KittyKatSmack]

where is the astinagt.com sticker????

nice work though!!

:D

[Rupewrecht]

lol i was waiting for someone to say that!

[Rupewrecht]

Any rough idea what would it be worth to send on to NZ (all up)?

total cost to the land of the long white cloud would be $24AUD
