Z34 Die Cast from Nissan

cstr_Cali · 12-02-2008, 11:03 AM

I've been anticipating the release of a die cast model of the Z34, and surprisingly its' here sooner than later...

If you care to read through Japanese: “úŽYƒIƒ“ƒ‰ƒCƒ“ƒVƒ‡ƒbƒv: ƒOƒbƒY/MINICAR collection

If you want to buy one living domestically (U.S.) I'd suggest frequenting this page as I know they are the licensed builder for die cast cars for Nissan Japan:EBBRO-WEB

I want a 1/18 scale, not a Hot Wheel!

!!!!!!!!! That's ridiculous! A 1/43rd scale from EBBRO should cost you half that. When the Z34 1/43rd goes online at EBBRO's website I'll buy it from there @ m.s.r.p.

Oh, and I like 1/18 too. They're just so big and I don't have lot of space for display; 1/43rd manages that conflict well.

yeah the nissan collection like pictured isnt ebbro. its like KYOSYO and it costs like 45 then i had it shipped from japan. these wont be available in the US. gotta get them off ebay or something. it comes in this special box

The R35 model you have pictured there is sweet, esp. with that case. Did you get that from the distributor, or eBay?

i got a few dozen wholesale from Kyosho directly to sale but i quit doing that as the shipping costs from japan on cases of the 1:18's were insane i almost ended up loosing money after i sold them all....

but yeah you can get them on ebay now

speaking of 370z only thing ive seen is a silver , blue and a yellow 1:64 hotwheels in stores

these are 1/43 so a bit bigger than hotwheel 1/64 this particular one has a neat case and is good size

here is an example of how big it will be. its exactly the same as that Z34 model

cstr_Cali · 12-02-2008, 12:41 PM

Yes it is. I have the 1/24 scale Fujimi version. Midnight Bayside.

cstr_Cali · 12-09-2008, 11:48 AM

1/64 Z33 + 34

cstr_Cali · 12-09-2008, 12:27 PM

Well it is pretty accurate considering this is the production car sized down to 1/64th scale. They never do this from scratch they always take the production car measure it input the data, and this is what you end up with.

I remember when HPI released the R35 GTR scale model. I waited several months for their official U.S. distributor to release it and the price came out to over $200. I couldn't believe it. Great craftsmanship for sure, but I'm not spending that much dinero on a 1/43rd scale die-cast. Here's to hoping the Z34 die cast will cost less.

Eh, front license plate? Kind of ugly.
