1:32 The Snap Kit Toyota GB Supra / Deep Blue Metallic

The real subject

The Toyota GR Supra is the return of a legendary name to the marque's current range. The letters GR refer to the Gazoo Racing sports division, under which Toyota brings out its sharper versions. The car catches the eye with a long hood, a lowered roof and strikingly scalloped flanks, which give it a squat stance more typical of racing specials. The Deep Blue Metallic shade is among the finishes in which the car is offered.

About the kit

This is a snap-together kit, that is the type in which the parts are joined by locking tabs and no glue is needed for the build. That is exactly why the range also suits a first build on one's own, or building with children. The 1:32 scale means a model roughly fourteen centimeters long, which does not take up half a display case and suits a desk as well. The exact number of parts, the contents of the package and whether stickers are included are given by the manufacturer's instructions.

Building tips

Snap the parts together with straight pressure and never by force, as angled pressure will break a tab. If you want to take the result further, even on a snap-together kit it pays to blacken the gaps around the lights and the grille and to give the body just a light polish; overall painting is not needed to reach a good result. Stand the finished model on a flat surface and take the dust off it with a soft brush.

Who it is for

For collectors of modern Japanese cars, for beginning builders and as a gift. Paints, glue and a display case are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.
