Hasegawa 21129 - 1/24 Nissan Skyline GTS-R (R31) 1987: A Scaled Classic

The 1987 Nissan Skyline GTS-R (R31) stands out for its period-correct styling and compact performance image. Hasegawa's 1/24 kit is focused on accurately reproducing the Skyline's external features, allowing modellers to recreate the car's distinctive profile in scale.

Model Build and Display Considerations

This kit targets hobbyists who value trim accuracy and neat finishing. The bodywork and spoiler are modelled to reflect the original styling, and careful painting will bring out the panel detail for an attractive display model.

Historical Context and Real-World Relevance

In its day the GTS-R combined a turbocharged inline-six with tuned handling to earn its reputation. The scale kit emphasises the outside appearance rather than engine internals, making it a tidy display piece that represents the R31 era.
