Just picked up my Nichimo scale 10 Stratos kit. Wow what details and more parts than on a Hawk kit.
Some one who had seen my site called me and said he won it in a bingo in 1983. He wanted the kit to sell to an enthousiast, which i am of corse ;) rather than putting it on E bay. Still costed me 135 Euro's though, is that a fair price?
It is really big compared to the 18 scale Kyosho. Has anyone tried to build one of these, is it difficult?
Well lets first finish the real car then we'l see :rolleyes:

Hi Pim
I've got one as well, but I'm putting the body on a modified tamiya Beetle M-04l chassis so not using the Nichimo chassis parts.
Price seem good.

I bet the build manual is better for the scale model than a real Hawk kit! ;) :D

£25 from Gerry but that's deducted from the cost of the kit. The current one is a big improvement on the original!

Thanks Guy, I have got one from about 1989 it's more a list / description of parts than a build manual.
Anyone got a copy of latest one I can have a look at. ;)
