Aoshima 1:24 Volkswagen Beetle 1303S as “Bumblebee” from Transformers plastic model build photoset May 10th, 2022
This is Aoshima’s VW Beetle kit, which is actually originally an Imai kit. Unfortunately, this is one of those old kits that were originally designed for motorized wheels, thus the car’s interior is compromised to accommodate the battery compartment. I didn’t realize this until after I bought the kit, so I took the opportunity to light this kit. You’ll notice that I even added a license plate light in the back. An Autobot decal sheet was gifted to me by a viewer on my YouTube channel. This was the first time I’ve lighted a car model. I’ll definitely do more Transformers-themed model builds in the future!
