Produced for a only short time in
1992 by the Rosso Corporation of Japan, which had a major factory fire
and went bankrupt soon afterwards. This is a very detailed and well engineered
kit of the 1991 Ferrari 643 F1 car driven by Alain Prost and Jean Alesi,
with car markings supplied for both drivers (driver figure not included).
Pre-painted metal body, suspension, and wheels. The balance is mostly plastic,
all parts finely engraved and molded in the appropriate colors, with many
other small metal detail parts. Assembly by many small screws of various
sizes (screwdriver included), minimal gluing required. Body markings are
of three different types: water-slide decals, dry transfer markings, and
vinyl adhesive markings*. Soft rubber tires. Similar level of detail to
the Pocher F40, but made in Japan so the casting, engraving, fit, finish,
and instructions are superior.
*With this kit I
also include a CD of color reference photos and a full
set of replacement decals for the car produced by Autograph, with
additional helmet and driver's suit markings for both drivers;
(the waterslide and dry transfer markings originally
supplied with the kit can degrade over time, but these new decals solve
any potential problems and are even higher quality than the originals)
