Tamiya Full View Ferrari F2001

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

It seemed not so long long ago when I was searching around for this kit after getting hooked at just seeing the Tamiya’s Ferrari F2000 kit. Since money was a concern, I decide to get the latest version which was the F2001 and a Full View version at that. Why a transparent kit? As a noob, I do not want to risk any major “oooops” that would “spoil” this beautiful machine. Okaaay, perhaps another reason was, I don’t want to go thru the trouble to paint it. ;)

According to the guy who sold the kit to me, the shop only brought in about 2 dozens and had it distributed to a few other branches. Basically, it’s the last one that is available at that shop, which is also the head office. (Hmm, Sales talk, I presume). Without further hesitation, I bought it! (August 2003, how long ago was that, eh?)

LEGO Ferrari F1 Racer 1:8

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

Well, I ‘ve finally, uploaded the page on the LEGO Ferrari F1 Racer 1:8. It seems  like only a few months ago that both my younger brother and I spent time to assemble this LEGO set together.

We bought it from a departmental store which offered it for a 20% discount back in December 2007. Guess how long we took to assemble it? 3 weeks plus!! Okay, we only spent a couple of hours every other day in building the Formula 1 car replica. It’s really big!! (remember to have a storage place for such big display items, or else….).

PS. Just for the record, we are fans of the Scuderia Ferrari. Forza Ferrari!!
