The Modified Miniature: The 1/24 Scale Model by Fujimi
The miniature model shown here in a scale of 1/24, manufactured by Fujimi, is based on the famous Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary. This is a heavily modified version found in the collection of Modelly member “Lamborgasm”. These model cars are made from high-quality plastic, with this specific example featuring some specialized modifications in addition to the original parts. Noticeable are the police decals simulating the look of a Japanese police car, as well as the mounted roof light that gives the model a unique authenticity and attention to detail. This is clearly a customized miniature model and does not depict the original product produced by Fujimi.
