Tamiya 1/24 Toyota 2000GT w/ 60's Girl Figure

Starting out with a in box review of this one...
Image

The body seems nice-- they have you started on getting the hood separate to show off not sure what since there seems to be no engine?

Vinyl tires--

The figure itself seems quite nice...

As well as the decals for the interior woodwork and panel...

That looks like a fun build. It is unfortunate they didn't include the engine. Strange...

Really cool. That car is just such a beauty. Question: was that how the figure was presented? Not on a sprue? Is the figure made from another material? Thanks in advance and best of luck with your review.

Ah no...sorry for misleading ;) it came in a small baggie as one leg, the arms, head, and then the torso and other leg as one piece... someone here asked about how the figure was so I thought I'd assemble it. It appears to be resin...but I'm not sure...

Reminds me of my old 280Z... except for the 60’s girl...
