Car Lamley Group: Z

We haven't profiled an Aoshima model in awhile. That will change, as Aoshima has just released their Grand Champions Volume 7 series, and one will be at Lamley Headquarters soon...

In the meantime, one of the previous models, the 240ZG. I don't have the time to do a writeup today, so enjoy the pics. We will be giving this entire series a lot of attention in the upcoming weeks.

But know that these racers are some of our favorite diecast models, and if you look above to the title of the blog you will see an Aoshima Nissan Laurel in the background. Lot's to come...

Enjoy the pics, and check out all the diecast, model kits, and other Aoshima products

Aoshima Grand Champions 1971 240ZG:

I think a few of you have been waiting for this one...

I think we all got a tad excited to see the Z back in the basic range, especially looking this good. My example has a handful of paint flaws, so I will be hunting a better version once this model hits the pegs, but it is clear this is one of the better looking versions of the Z. I would put the Regular/Super T-Hunt

from a couple of years up there as well, but this is one of the top 2.

And even better, it is based on a real car. Instead of copying it all down here, how about I just provide this link provided by one of our Lamley friends:

How cool is that?

Nonetheless, a very welcome addition to the Z collection. Now let's throw it in the Boulevard Series and give it some premium treatment...
