58225 Lancer Evo 5

[redzone 212]

been looking for one for a while now and cant seem to find one, complete or just a shell! plenty of sticker sets though. why is this kit so rare it seems? why would they have made less of this kit??

any theories?? it's got me stuffed...

no you are right, the V is probably the hardest of all the lanevos to find

methink its because IV came in 2 kits (TL01 & TA03) and VI & VII were pretty popular TB01s,

but V only ever came on a TA03 towards the end of that chassis' shelflife

haven't seen m/any boxed bodysets, does it exist?

took me forever to find this one for the TA03, came via a japan auction

[redzone 212]

yeah they mustn't have made many of them, maybe they broke the mold (lol)

but weird there are so many wing/mirror and sticker sets for sale??

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!

Cool.

I gave away a new built Evo 5 I had, annoyingly. That's the second Evo they've now re-re'd on the RA chassis, the 4 is already out. I'm looking forward to the 6!

ive got the TA03F which came with that shell but the front end is smashed! not by me!

[redzone 212]

ah well now u can get a new shell for it! or 3!

[redzone 212]

has this one been released yet?????????????????

[WillyChang 1820]

don't think so, haven't seen them anywhere yet

T USA says "coming soon" and Jap site suggest April 24th.

I'm wanting to know if they'll come with interior set or DarkImpact shell for dustcover;

be too surprised to expect new-made lightbuckets but we can always hope
