About product

Mitsubishi Galant A133A in 1:24 scale from Aoshima

A plastic kit of the Japanese sedan Mitsubishi Galant with the factory body designation A133A, model year 1978. The model in 1:24 scale fits into the most widespread automotive range, so it can be displayed next to other road cars. Aoshima is a Japanese manufacturer that consistently devotes itself to domestic car production of the 1970s and 1980s, that is to types that otherwise appear in the European range only rarely.

The real subject

The Galant of the A13x series belonged to the generation that Mitsubishi offered in the second half of the 1970s as a mid-size sedan with a longitudinally mounted four-cylinder engine at the front and rear-wheel drive. The body with its boxy nose, flat sides and wide glass matches the Japanese taste of the period, and the car was sold on the home market as well as under various trade names on export markets. Today the type is above all an object of interest for collectors of period Japanese machinery.

Building and painting tips

On the boxy body of this type it pays to spend time on the parting lines along the edges and the pillars, because flat surfaces give away every imperfection. Once you have sanded them, apply a filler primer, check the surface against the light and only then spray the covering shade. Period Japanese sedans tend to have prominent chrome window frames and trim strips, which can be accentuated with masking tape and silver paint or with a thin chrome marker. The interior is brought to life by matte shades and a fine dry brush over the texture of the fabrics.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Japanese sedans of the 1970s
  • Modelers who enjoy working with chrome trim and a gloss finish
  • Builders of themed display cases in 1:24 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is the factory body code of the Galant from the second half of the 1970s. Mitsubishi used designations like it to tell body versions and powerplants apart within one model line.

It is a classic injection-molded kit in 1:24 scale. Even a less experienced modeler will manage the assembly, and the most demanding part tends to be painting the body and finishing the chrome trim.

No. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted, and the paints, the varnish and the glue are not included in the package.

Muted metallics as well as simple solid shades suit period Japanese sedans. Check the actual factory combinations against the instructions included with the kit.
