-It is [Toyota GR Yaris RZ 2020] manufactured as a 1/43 scale handmade model car of [EIDOLON].
――It will be a model that faithfully reproduces the [Toyota GR Yaris RZ 2020] made as Toyota's 100% genuine sports car in 2020.
[Vehicle commentary]
――Akio Toyoda President GR Yaris was created based on the idea of [I want to regain Toyota's sports car], a project that requires a lot of effort.
――It is said that it is neither the 86 born in collaboration with Subaru nor the Supra born in collaboration with BMW, but the idea of making it 100% by Toyota.
――In development, it is a major premise to acquire WRC homologation, and instead of modifying the commercial model like the old Toyota WRC competition vehicle, the commercial model can be said to be a detuned version of the WRC participating vehicle, to the extreme. Although it claims to be Yaris, it is equipped with a platform and a dedicated engine that are different from the standard model.
-The commercial model has 3 lines of RZ system equipped with 272 horsepower 1.6 liter 3-cylinder turbo and 4WD mechanism, RC which is a competition model, and RS with 1.5 liter 3-cylinder naturally aspirated engine in FF.
――The grade called RZ modeled this time can be said to be the base grade of GR Yaris equipped with a manual transmission.
――Equipped with 15-spoke aluminum wheels and a brake system with the same specifications as RZ High performance.
[Model explanation]
――GR Yaris's style is simple at first glance, but the rear fender area has a really elaborate surface structure, so it is essential to grasp its shape accurately.
――The model to be released this time is designed based on the 3D data of the actual vehicle provided by Toyota Motor Corporation.
――In addition to the accurate basic skeleton constructed in this way, we will reflect the details information obtained from actual vehicle interviews and scans, differences depending on the grade, etc. in the prototype data.
――At the same time, we will devise parts division so that we can apply clean coloring and detailing as a model.
――For example, black parts that appear everywhere on the body can be masked and painted separately as an integral molding with the body, but if you pursue the beauty of the (kiwa) part at that time, the parts can be separated from the body. It is wise to paint it by itself and then attach it to the body.
――Of course, the more parts you have, the more costly and time-consuming it is, but the most important thing is the beauty of the finished product.
――It is also a point to note that the door handle is a separate part even though it is a 1/43 model.
――The front grille uses etched parts, but what is more important is the details of the cooling system that can be seen through the etched grille, which also uses the etched parts to express high resolution and give reality just like a real car. I am directing.
――The competitive carbon roof has a decal attached, a clear coating is applied, and the surface is polished to a mirror surface.
――Our commitment to the expression of lights is indescribable, but for tail lamps, due to the need for fine engraving expression and the smoothness of the surface of the parts, we have raised the mold and used injection molded clear parts. , I realized a realistic look by combining the etching parts there.
