Didn’t realize the first time this was 1/43 rd scale. Nice looking kit for that size. Keep up the good work!😎

Thanks a lot, Richard! I know the scale isn't for everyone but I can finish a kit like this in a fraction of the time compared to 1/24

There were two different Aston Martin DB5's used in Goldfinger. One with the gadgets and one that was just stock. If you watch the film carefully, only the 'gadget' car has the orange reflectors on the side. This (and the dent in the non-gadget car) is the easiest way to distinguish between the two cars. So, for accuracy, this build should have kept the orange stickers. (Points for Revell to know this and include the orange reflectors. Previously, only the Danbury Mint car had these reflectors.)
@BOABModels 3 күн бұрын
You're right and I would have included the side markers but I felt the decals didn't look realistic enough. The gadget car was the original DB5 prototype, based on a DB4, and was previously red.

Looks extremely badic for a Heller kit, most of thd ones ive built have been fantastic. The 1/16 Citroen DS are great, the 1/24 Mehari was also fantastic. So believe me, most are far better detailed than this 205. Check the parts count before buying...

I agree - the Heller 1/24 Alpine A110 was a great kit, despite being very old. I also like their 1/43 stuff.

@@BOABModels they did some very odd choices of cars sometimes too, even from me as a European who recognises Renault 20s and Rover SD1s. Or the 1/24 Scania 141 truck, lightweight E-type and Hispano Suiza no one else ever kitted. Would hate anyone to base an opinion on Heller just from this one fairly poor kit. Certainly look forward to seeing what you do with it.

Oh dear, oh dear... I have build this kit when it was released, but I don't actually remember the build, despite I drew a few decals myself to make it Timo Salonen's car from the 1985 RAC rally. I haven't seen the finished car in a while, as I did it for my uncle, but I never felt satisfied with the way it turned out.

I’ve built a Heller Ford Focus WRC two decades ago. Awful to see, that their kits haven’t improved a bit. The Focus' one-piece-rims where made of two pieces, which tells you a lot about Heller kits.

The box says 41 parts which is surprising to me. I have never built a Heller kit that I can remember, but they are not easily found here in the USA. (I have always thought that was because of a distribution issue - not the quality of their kits) Still I'm interested in how you will upgrade it so I will be following this build closely 🙂

I built the Tamiya one when it was released, thought it strange they didn’t do the evolution version of it though, or even the Dakar one, the 205 Dakar had the 405 bodywork on it for later Dakar rallies, Dakar cars were basically lengthened to accommodate a larger fuel tank. I have the Heller kit somewhere in the stash, looking forward to seeing your scratch building on this one, model on

Thanks Sarah Jane. I'm surprised Tamiya have never touched the 205 kit in the past 30+ years - maybe a rights issue? Heller however have sold this and a 1/43 scale Dakar version.

2 things to note - firstly, I forgot to mention there are no seat belt decals in this kit, which is a shame. However, the decals are terrible - I have started making it and they fall apart. So if you intend to make it and don't like jigsaw puzzles, get some replacement decals.
