Aoshima 1/12 Honda Gorilla Takekawa Ver.1 Collector Model

The Aoshima 1/12 Honda Gorilla Custom Takekawa Specification Ver.1 represents the essence of minibike custom culture in scale form, highlighting the familiar Gorilla proportions and the Takekawa performance cues. This kit is tailored for modelers who appreciate authentic custom detailing.

Custom Influence and Model Detail

The Honda Gorilla is valued for its compact chassis and mod potential, and Takekawa-style upgrades emphasise sportier handling and visual tweaks. Aoshima translates those upgrades into scale parts that reflect the real modifications.

Construction Considerations and Collecting Notes

This kit is best tackled by those comfortable with intermediate assembly, as several small components require neat fitting and finishing. Once complete, the model makes an attractive addition to any collection of scaled motorcycles.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/12
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included, recommended for enhanced realism
The Takekawa specification adds performance and styling elements to the basic Gorilla, such as revised exhausts, gearing and trim changes, which the model reflects in scale form.
No special paints are required, but using hobby-grade acrylics or enamels will give the best finish and durability for small scale details.
Yes, modelers often modify and scratchbuild parts to personalise the look; the kit is a good base for additional custom work.
Applying a clear coat helps protect paintwork and unify finishes; choose matte, satin or gloss depending on the desired appearance.
