Features
The Aoshima 3‑5959 is a 1/24 scale plastic model kit from Aoshima's Initial D series, replicating the Nissan Skyline GT‑R (BNR32) driven by Rin Hojo - a character from the popular Initial D manga/anime. Known as the "Shinigami GT‑R" (God of Death), Rin Hojo's R32 GT‑R is offered here as a detailed assembly kit aimed at hobbyists and collectors. This model is part of Aoshima's Initial D lineup, which focuses on faithful reproductions of iconic cars featured in the series.
Subject Car - BNR32 Skyline GT‑R
The kit represents the Nissan Skyline GT‑R (BNR32), one of the most iconic Japanese performance cars of the late 1980s and early 1990s. The BNR32 was developed to dominate touring car championships and featured advanced technology for its time, including an RB26DETT twin‑turbo engine and ATTESA E‑TS all‑wheel‑drive system. In Initial D, Rin Hojo's R32 is portrayed as a formidable rival on the mountain passes.
Included Model Features & Parts
This Aoshima kit includes injection‑moulded plastic parts that recreate the exterior body, detailed chassis components, and clear parts for windows and lights. Special enhancements for this Initial D variant include a large rear wing and a replicated roll bar to match Rin Hojo's customized race‑inspired version of the R32. Additionally, window frame masking stickers are provided to assist accurate painting and finishing.
Assembly & Build Experience
Like most scale model kits, the 3‑5959 requires assembly by the builder - tools such as model glue, hobby cutters, and paints are needed but not included. The parts are designed for standard 1/24 build practices, giving builders the chance to paint, detail, and customize the finished model. This makes the kit suitable for intermediate hobbyists who enjoy crafting and finishing as much as collecting.
