Yamaha shocked the motorcycle world once again when it brought out the XV1600 Road Star, a unique combination of traditional cruiser design with state-of-the-art technology. The construction of the machine is focused on providing the maximum amount of comfort, performance and style to today's large-capacity cruiser customer. The XV1600 is powered by a huge 1,600cc air-cooled V-twin pushrod engine housed in an ultra-long and low chassis. This OHV engine pumps out 46.3kW (62.6PS) at 4,000rpm and features an electric starter. The front suspension of this machine consists of telescopic forks, while the rear consists of a swinging arm motocross. This gorgeous motorcycle was voted "1999 Cruiser Bike of the Year" by Cruising Rider magazine.
Tamiya has recreated the Road Star in stunning detail as their latest addition to the 1/12 Motorcycle Series.
Overall length: 208mm, overall width 89mm, overall height: 100mm.
Enjoy the fascinating assembly incorporating real screws and two kinds of metal-plated parts.
The delicate fins of the air-cooled engine, spoke wheels and the slender brake and clutch lines all add to the realism of this motorcycle masterpiece.
Kit comes with two kinds of tank emblems (one for the Japanese and American "Road Star" and one for the "Wild Star" as it is called in Europe.
Various decals for stripes and meters are also included in this authentic kit.
A transparent display stand is included.
This model kit recreates the T34/85 Russian medium tank into the 1/48 Military Miniature Series! The T34/85 was a re-evaluation of the trusty T34/76 that had run into trouble against powerful German foes like the Tiger I and Panther. It had a larger, heavier-armoured turret with 85mm gun, and was manufactured in January 1944. As the tide turned and the Allies pushed back Axis forces, the T34/85 played a significant part in Operation Bagration (Summer 1944) and the advance on Berlin in April, 1945. 25,000 were produced by 1946, and it even served other militaries in the Warsaw Pact and was also exported to client states, taking part in the Korean and Vietnam Wars.
1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 169mm, width: 63mm.
Brand-new kit, it does not carry over any parts from the T34/76 model already in this series (Item 32515).
The form of the powerful medium tank is captured realistically, with an ergonomic parts breakdown much like the real T34/85. The roughcast turret texture is expertly recreated, and the lower hull is a plastic part.
Features depictions of later production road wheels, and the later single-piece turret hatch design.
Assembly-type tracks use single-piece straight sections.
Comes with a commander figure and two marking options for vehicles in the invasion of Germany, in 1945.
