Does anyone know what Lamborghini kit this is ?
It's offered by Testors but I'm curious if its the Fujimi or what other kit it might be. I'm thinking on bidding but don't want to end up with a reboxed (poor) AMT KIT.

Not likely the old AMT, tho I like most AMTs. The Testors is 1/24 so it can't be a reissue of an AMT anyway. I haven't seen any newer Testors sports cars, but I wasn't thrilled with them when they started issuing them in those wide, flatter boxes. I went to various online "hobby stores" and didn't find any there and a quick Google images" of Lambo models got none like the one on e-bay. My guess it's from a while back. Wish I could help more.

Testors was with a few other company's, Monogram, Fujimi and a couple of others from overseas but was never with AMT or MPC. Being 1/24th scale I would say from overseas. I would say it is a Fujimi reissue by Testors but not sure. 2whl or skid might know for sure.

Dunno what your issue is with the AMTs. I'm hoping it's something better than a no-engine-snap-kit variation. maybe looking at other Testors kits can give you an idea of quality and detail. I'll get on with a bigger search in a couple hours.

My issue with the AMT is that the last time I built it, I found it impossible to get the wheels to sit properly under the wheel well and it just looks toy like to me.
I have since learned that the Testors Kit is an Italieri which would probably be a curbside but that's OK with me for this kit.

http://compare.ebay.com/like/120899569097?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar# Here's the link to Testors-Iraleri Lambo kit for sale. Price is ridiculous $90, but there are 3 fotos including one of opened box with plastic trees in view. Kit does have an engine, but not great in detail from what I saw.

That's the kit I am talking about. The one I am bidding on is a LOT cheaper :)

I understand that the $90 kit is a different one. I mentioned the pricey one as the trees of pieces are shown and the engine halves are visible. With a day to go bid sits at $9 yet. Good luck.

This kit is the same of the Italeri kit, Italeri and Testors shared some kits.
