Amazing find. That's crazy. You got all r32?

I can't believe you found all those Skylines. Do they all use the same body with different decorations or are there other differences?

Me neither!
a nice guy from Ebay was selling 10 Skylines. After he lowered the prices and was not able to sell them all 10 together I took my chance and asked if he would sell me the 4 R32's seperately. I'm very glad he accepted (not cheap though ...)
What concerns the differences: Very easy.
2 of them are TA-01's (the std and the AXIA). The other 2 are TA02 (Calsonic and HKS)
For the rest: the decals are different and each set has specific wheels too.
The Calsonic and HKS have tuned motor std.

For the rest they are all identical.

ps. Love the boxart on these!

Thanks for the explanation. Are you planning to build them or leave them NiB?

I consider myself more a New Build collector.

But in this case I hesitate ... alot!
So for now I will leave them in their boxes.

I was thinking to buy 4 new HKS's on TT01 base and build those. Axia and Calsonic decals are available on MCI ...

Nice idea.

Wow, never thought Tamiya made so many different versions of the R32.

Nice buy indeed

Got myself another Cheetah chassis.
With torsion bars ( not broken, phew !!)
And the panel on the bottom, only my second one after buying 6 or 7 chassis, although I realise why now they are 1.2 mm thick so you can see them getting broken easily.
Also came with 3 XR311 tyres ( luckily I have a random one tyre sitting around so that makes a full set. A load of wheels which will come in handy.
Plus 1 Cheetah tyre and some random wheel parts.
The tyre is useable and should clean up okay.
