Hasegawa 1/24 Toyota 87C 1987 Shakedown - product outline

The Hasegawa 20500 - 1/24 Toyota 87C 1987 Shakedown Model Kit offers a scale-true representation of Toyota's Group C contender. The kit emphasises the car's streamlined body and race-oriented proportions, providing an authentic subject for hobby display.

Significance in endurance racing

The Toyota 87C played a role in Toyota's late 1980s endurance programme. This model reflects the era's aerodynamic priorities and reproduces the main visual traits that define the original race car.

Recommended build approach and showcase use

Given the level of detail, builders should approach the kit with patience and correct tools. Finished builds perform well as centrepieces in a collection or as part of a diorama highlighting vintage endurance racing.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Build time varies with skill and detail level, but expect several evenings to a few weekends for careful assembly, painting and decaling.
The kit is complete out of the box, though modellers seeking extra realism may add aftermarket bits like etched brass or resin details for finer scale features.
Yes, the instructions cover decal placement and suggested colour schemes, but painters may choose custom finishes to match reference photos or personal preference.
