Video: Tamiya Nissan GT-R Model Kit Unboxing | CompetitionX

Tamiya Nissan GT-R Model Kit Unboxing | CompetitionX

I haven’t built a model kit in about, oh, almost 40 years. With this whole COVID-19 pandemic, it’s given me alot of free time, so I thought what better way to keep myself busy than to start building again!

That being said, I figured I’d start off with a car I’ve always wanted – the Nissan GT-R. I chose the Tamiya version (part #24300), then outfitted my space with all the needed tools and paints to create a cool car.

Now, I’m not 100% sure how well it will come out seeing as I’m a bit out of practice, however I do find myself to be a bit of a perfectionist so this first kit should come out pretty good. I hope.

Anyway, before the build we need to see what’s inside the box, so that’s what this video is all about.
