This item is an injection-plastic passenger car kit. It requires both cement and painting to complete or use.
"Itasha" literally means "pain car" in Japanese, suggesting that these cars garishly decorated with colorful anime character graphics are embarrassingly painful to look at, or ride in. A bit harsh, perhaps, but there you have it! Another take on the name is that it's riffing on the similar sound of the nickname for Italian cars, also pronounced "Itasha" but with the kana for Italy's "Ita" in place of the kanji for pain (also pronounced "ita" in this combination). "Sha" in both cases means "car."
This nice Mazda Savanna RX-7 Late Type kit features graphics from the popular anime "Little Busters." The decals for the graphics are particularly well done, featuring image fidelity not often seen in automotive kits. Aside from the decals, this is Aoshima's standard curbside kit (no engine detail) of the RX-7. The body is molded in white. Includes Advan Model 5 wheels.
