Build Requirements
As a traditional scale plastic model, this kit requires separate assembly and finishing tools. You will need to purchase plastic model cement/glue, side cutters/nippers to remove parts from the sprues, and hobby paints. To achieve the nostalgic, launch-era look of the 1994 model, builders frequently utilize distinct period-correct shades like Toyota's Opal Green Metallic. [1, 2, 3]
