Review: Fujimi Super Tune Up F Series

Introduction:

Fujimi Mokei Co., Ltd. is a Japanese model manufacturer based in Shizuoka Prefecture. It produces plastic model kits of a variety of vehicles, including model aircraft, model cars, model ships and model armored vehicles along with historical structures and science fiction kits. Since "mokei" means "model" in Japanese, "Fujimi Mokei" is often called "Fujimi Model(s)" in English. Due to the popularity of Formula One cars, they also produced their own 1/32 scale F-1 cars. Judging from their respective boxarts, the cars were seemingly based on the 1989 Formula One season. Which probably also released that year, a year earlier before Tamiya or ARII released their own F-1 cars. It seems like there're 2 versions of this series, since 2 of them I got has variant colored boxarts. The white boxarts version, they're included with large rear velgs, small front velgs and plastic tires. While the dark colored boxarts was included with gold plated wheelsets and sponge tires.

No. 01: Mclaren Honda:

Once again due to the popularity of Mclaren, many toy companies including Fujimi took the chance to make their own product for money making. The car was based on Mclaren MP4/5 judging on the artwork and the year they released this line. However, this conversion wasn't inspired from the Legendary Ayrton Senna version but, rather Alain Prost.

Design thoughts: Unlike Tamiya and ARII, this representation of Mclaren appeared to have blocky shape on it's side fairings and the nose is very thick. I like Fujimi's representation of Mclaren car as well.

No. 02: Benetton Ford:

The car was based on B189 and most likely based on either Nelson Piquet or Emanuele Pirro version and unlike Tamiya & ARII, B189 has bright green colored bodyshell. Although, the actual car has 5 color schemes.

Design thoughts: Also digging on this. Perhaps, out from all release, this is the most colorful livery coming from Benetton Ford since both Tamiya and ARII made B190B and B192 versions which only got less colorings on their livery.

No. 03: Leyton House March:

Well, pretty unique Fujimi actually released something different than both Tamiya or ARII. The car was based on March 881 driven by Mauricio Gugelmin and has turquoise colored bodyshell.

Design thoughts: I gotta admit, despite being underrated, this is one of the cool yet unique. Unfortunately, the side part of the rear nose was made to be quite narrow, thus hinders fitting into it's chassis since the battery locker will blocking the bodyshell's side rear nose. You'll have to remove the battery locker of you want to fit the bodyshell into the chassis

No. 04: Ferrari:

Well, other than McLaren, Ferrari is the 2nd that caught attention to even Fujimi to make their own. It was based on Ferrari 640 and like every Ferrari cars it has red colored bodyshell and it was inspired from Gerhard Berger's car instead of Prost, since Prost is still on McLaren team back in 1989.

Design thoughts: I like how this car appeared to be the slimmest of all but, it's nose is quite bold. This is pretty different representation since both Tamiya and ARII made the Ferrari cars looking very broad.

No. 05: Black Special

Unlike the others, Black Special is a fictional car made by Fujimi and after a close inspection from me, the black special is literally McLaren Honda bodyshell in black color. It seems like it was meant to be a special release from Fujimi.

Design thoughts: Well, despite being a recolor but, this car is looking pretty wicked and badass, I love how Fujimi also went wild on producing their own original design instead of referencing another F1 cars.

No. 06: Lamborghini:

To be frank... I couldn't find an actual car that has livery like this but, since it was called Lamborghini, it can be assumed the car was inspired from Lola LC89. However, the bodyshell wasn't even based on Lola but, it was a reused of Leyton House March bodyshell in navy blue color. I guess this is just another one of Fujimi's special release. Unlike the others, the car's livery doesn't even have any numbering.

Design thoughts: I personally like this one most, it's simple and I really like the color, eventhough it was loosely inspired from a certain F1 car. Like Leyton House March, it's bodyshell won't fit if the battery locker is attached on it's chassis.

Super Tune Up F Series Chassis:

The chassis was build similar like the old class tamiya mini 4WD chassis however, despite the looks it doesn't have any 4WD features. Even the kit only got 2 gears to attach, and each kit was included with 2 types of gear, red for standard run and black for speed run. The gear box appeared to have exposed view on the motor and gears. The terminals are silver color, I gotta say the chassis mechanism was designed to be way too simple. Each kit were included with 2 types of keylock; the standard one and the one with rear bumper. I know the photo contents are inconsistents, since one of them were already half assembled and the Ferrari one was already fully assembled while the rests were still in unassembled condition but, to tell you the truth it took me 3 years to complete this Fujimi kits. They're way harder to find than Tamiya or ARII, which I don't really care anymore getting them unassembled or fully assembled or even what versions that I got.

Thoughts:

I love the colorful bodyshell of these compared to ARII which mostly only got 4 colors although, it surprised me a little that some of the bodyshells are simply a reused from certain previous kits. But, the variable colorings helps to hide their similarities vaguely. And... I never expected that they're not designed for mini 4WD despite they looked like one. Gotta admit the driver cars they picked are nothing famous except Alain Prost. It's no wonder the line became so underrated and not many people know this but... Atleast, I'm happy enough to be able to complete them all. The main problem from this kits, several kit with white boxarts suffered breakable plastic tires, I guess it's pretty understandable since they've been aged so long thus making them brittle eventhough I bought them brand new unassembled. And the Leyton House March/Lamborghini bodyshell would be reused by Academy Model Kit (Korean plastic model company) to make their own Mini 4WD car called Hot Wings with slight alterations, mainly for fitting their own Super-1 chassis.

Fujimi to re-release Cyclone, New Cyclone, Hurricane and Battle Hopper model kits

Being a producer of many high-quality vehicle model kits, the company Fujimi is no stranger to making kits of multiple Kamen Riders' bikes in the past. As part of the franchise's 50th anniversary celebrations, they have announced that all four of their kits are to see special re-issues -- Kamen Rider #1's original Cyclone, Kamen Rider #1 and #2's New Cyclone, Kamen Rider V3's Hurricane and Kamen Rider BLACK's Battle Hopper are all to be re-released very soon.

These model kits are 1/12 scale and as such scale very well with the likes of S.H. Figuarts and Figure-Rise Standard Kamen Rider figures. The New Cyclone features optional cutter wings. Built to a high standard and featuring rubber tires, silver chrome and transparent window pieces, readers should be made aware that these kits are intended for more experienced model kit builders than Bandai's Figure-Rise kits; and use water slides instead of stickers for details. Designed to the exact same specifications as the original releases, these special re-issues also come with a new set of 3 special postcards each.

Fujimi's Cyclone, New Cyclone, Hurricane and Battle Hopper 50th Anniversary Versions release at general retail in July 2023 for 6,600 Yen each; with pre-orders now open on sites such as AmiAmi and HLJ.

先月完成したミニ・クラブマンと並べたくて、25年以上前に作ったフジミのオールドミニの完成品を修繕しました。当時クーパーのフロントグリルの造形が気に入らなくて、自作パーツに置き換えた部分のメッキの再現にモデラーズのメタルック（糊付きの極薄アルミ箔）を貼ってたのですが、年月が経ってシワが寄ったり全体的に燻んでましたので、それを剥がしてガイアカラーのEXシルバーやガンダムマーカーのメッキシルバーで塗装しました。また、前後ウィンドウのウェザーストリップのメッキモールの再現にもメタルックを使っていたのですが。そこはミラーフィニッシュやジュラルミンフィニッシュの細切りに置き換えましたとさ。#プラモデル #プラモデル車 #カーモデル #モデルカー #模型 #model #modelcar #carmodel #mini #minicooper #fujimi #フジミ #カーモデル好きな人と繋がりたい #カーモデル製作中 https://www.instagram.com/p/CpQBy_8vFFl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Name: Ejiri in Suruga Province

Artist: Katsushika Hokusai.

This piece was created between 1830 -1832 in Japan’s Edo period, it’s the 10th installment in the Hokusai’s acclaimed series “36 views of mount Fuji”. Mount Fuji is shown without clouds, which were probably blown away by strong winds. Travelers along a meandering path on the Tōkaidō highway fight against the gusts, which are ripping papers from a pack and hats from their heads. The trees sway, and leaves dance in the sky. The frantic movements in the foreground contrast with the stillness of the mountain in the distance.
