So Close to Perfection, Yet So Far: Unboxing a GTR Nismo 400R by Pop Race

As much as I like Pop Race models, even I was taken aback by how good this Nismo 400R looked. It’s just a shame that quality control issues have popped up when I least expected them.

Looks great overall, but yea i also have a problem with the bad quality control Pop Race has.
On the red Stagea right on the front edge of the bonnet + front grille the chipped paint was "fixed" with a pink sharpie )))) And the Porsche 911 Stinger GTR the wing is crooked. (both models bought sealed)

It really is a shame, because many of their designs are quite outstanding, and also because most of their models are priced significantly higher than the models offered by Mini GT.

I wish They WOULD make a tomica premium 400R. I know they have TL tomica limited version but it looks weird. And has been obsolete.

[@jimsmagnificentminiaturemo3235]

Maybe if the TLVN sells enough they’ll consider it. ;)

The Tomica Premium will most likely use that same casting if it ever came out. They never cared about making accurate replicas of cars. It falls more in line of a Majorette.

Mine had very very small diecast dent at top edge of passenger side window. >_<
Yes, I'd say Pop Race is 7 out of 10. 8 out of 10 if no QC issues.
TLVN version still the best.

[@jimsmagnificentminiaturemo3235]

Oh absolutely. The TLVN is in a class of its own.

[@traviswalker8933]

Sorry, the TLVN is not the best when it comes to longevity. It has paint bubbling issues, the interior is also quite of a poor quality for the price one pays for it and the fact that some vents aren't even coloured black takes away from the realism.
