TARMAC WORKS REMEMBERS THE VAN FANS

I would be very surprised if the Van boys of Asia don’t pick this up. A stellar job on TW’s part bringing this iconic and much beloved people transporter of Asia into existence. It looks so good, it feels nice and weighty as a diecast model and I just love the clean lines plus subtle stickering. Everything about this model rolls on the fact that this body designer is not a ricer.

Another great side scene to having larger scale models if the ability I have to better show you collectors the pretty neat details this HIACE possess. Like the rear AERO wing mounted on the rear in gloss black. Quad exhausts, rear license plate which is actually legible without squinting, the badging everything looks good.

I’m not a collector of vans, in fact I used like collecting the VW T1 but now I feel I really have enough. So, for me to spend money and actually buy a 1/43 scale HIACE is the sort of thing that can change the earths polar setting and throw the tides into complete disarray. But when I saw it released, I just had to have it. Love the colour scheme, love everything. Glad I got this.
