Yup. I preordered mine back in September and was delivered about a month ago. The detail is amazing.

Do the doors, hood, and trunk open?

And that's the sad part....no they don't so much detail you would think the doors etc would open.

Too bad they don’t offer the blue one with black brakes. It will be perfect to match my 2018 GSF

It would be cool if they made a remote control GSF like they do the RCF..

Ya I'm really impressed with the craftsmanship and details. The metallic paint looks amazing and it's pretty heavy. However, I'm disappointed at the fact none of the doors open and the wheels don't rotate because it says it's a display model.

I just ordered an Autoart LC500. Crazy detail and everything opens... Autoart makes so many Lexus models but no ISF, RCF or GSF

I have been looking for one of those. The only one(s) I have found are the Autoart "pre-orders" on E-bay with a 'January or February' release date. Is there somewhere else you recommend that actually has it in stock today? Thank you!

maybe I'm doing something wrong but... the website posted above only lets me choose shipping to Japan. How do I order this to ship to the US?

Yup I had to get a friend to pick it up from his hotel. U can try contacting kyosho? I know their North American distributor doesn't have the gsf on their website though.

Funny thing, on the bottom of the model there is a sticker 100/400...so I don' know if that's the 100th piece of 400 production total?
