Tamiya latest scale model is absolutely amazing, packed with parts manufactured with the latest technology in design and plastic injection. It recreates the Toyota TS050 Hybrid of the Gazoo Racing team that swept its rivals at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2018 with Fernando Alonso at the wheel. The kit includes chrome parts, paint masks, carbon decals, and an endless pile of plastic parts.

New issue of the Komakai "Fast Guides" series, this time covering the impressive Toyota TS050 Hybrid in 32 full color A5 sized pages. It is the perfect reference book for building the Tamiya kit.

All paints are pre-thinned for airbrush use, to a consistency suitable for airbrushes with nozzle sizes of 0.3mm upwards. It is NOT recommended to overthin the paint: mixing too much thinner will increase the chance of the paint becoming too hot during application, thus affecting/melting the plastic below the primer. If unsure, we recommend you to test it first before applying to your kit.

Additional decals for the Tamiya Toyota TS050 Hybrid kit with different badges that are not included in the original model decal sheet.
