1/18 Maisto Vespa LX125 - 2005 (Angela Veronica)

Why bother to get Auto Vajin for 2,000 yen (about SGD 33.00) before adding whatever shipment charges (the final price is estimated at SGD 47.00 at current rate of SGD 16.40 per 1,000 yen) when you can get a gorgeous but much cheaper Vespa from the local departmental store....

The answer for that surely is because that Auto Vajin can transform into the robot mode and it is the original bike for Kamen Rider Faiz.

However, recently we grabbed this gorgeous Vespa LX125 (Model Year of 2005) for a mere SGD 9.00 plus we got some 15% discount on it as well...

And as you can see below, the tiny SIC Kiwami Tamashii Kamen Rider Faiz is quite happy with it... Vespa offer 3 times more power, 3 times more speed and 3 times more sexier than the old Honda BoonSiew 70cc or even the transformable Auto Vajin....

But even after I said so, don't hesitate to buy the SIC Kiwami Auto Vajin if you want it. In fact if you have Faiz, you must grab the Auto Vajin coz so far that is the only bike exist in Bandai SIC Kiwami Tamashii offering... In fact we do plan to grab it in the future.

For now, have a look at this Faiz with his new Vespa - it's not something extravaganza but the scale surely match and I think this Faiz is very happy....




See... he really play a lot with it....




He said; "Come and join me girls..."




And then he said; "I can teach you how to do this...."




Nonetheless, let's review the Vespa LX-125....

The box...





Out of the box...





For a cheap price of SGD 9.00, I think you should be grateful that Maisto also provide that display base and name tag....










This thing is a mass produced items made in China.... there are some flaws here and there.... quite tiny but you wont see it from far away....





As for details, not much to expect but I think it's quite a fair option for such price....






Overall, this Vespa is great value for money. The 1/18 scale surely fit nicely for the tiny SIC Kiwami Tamashii Kamen Rider figures. There are plenty of other models available offered by Maisto, you can also consider the brilliant Kawasaki Ninja or those other models from Honda, Suzuki or maybe Yamaha - be sure to choose 1/18 scale if you buy it for your SIC Kiwami Tamashii Kamen Rider figures. In fact they also have those racing models with all the decals if you want it.

To see the available models, try visit Maisto website = http://www.maisto.com/product_home_MC.asp

Or you can just visit your local departmental store and look at their toys section... hopefully they have Maisto models there...


Now let's get back to the Kamen Riders..... 2 person is never a problem for this Vespa....




Vroom vroom vrooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmm......




Oh yeah.... since the real one is Auto Vajin, we decided to named this Vespa as "Angela Veronica"

I remember saw this in the classic Malay movie of P.Ramlee - the ladies at the back will sit something like this - look at Den-O;





It's kind of funny but I think it is also exciting to sit that way.... on any emergency cases, it's easy to jump away from the Vespa....




Faiz doing more and more tricks to get the attention of the girls... Warning: kids, do not try this at home!!!




On a hot or rainy day - it would be nice to use a pink umbrella - pink umbrella offers 3 times more protection from the sun UV lights and rain drops....




If you buy this Vespa from "Lim Brothers Automobiles Pte. Ltd." - they will give you this pink umbrella for free - offer valid while stock last, bank loan available!!!!





Faiz love this Angela Veronica....






Momo and Den-O having fun with it as well..... this photo below, the size is 2048 x 1536 (about 3MP) - if you like it, feel free to save it and use it as your desktop wallpaper....




I did try this Veronica on Figma as well.... Tsukasa insist to try it... but it seems that the 1/18 scale is a little too small for Figma - I think the big 1/12 scale should be OK.




And it is totally unreasonable to test GFFN Strike Gundam (at 1/144 scale) on this Vespa...

  5. to be a Maisto model is indeed very attractive, plus the low price is a good deal, man !!!... now it has the usual faults of a "low profile" item but if you want something more accurate, you should be ready for a low blow to your wallet... your macro lens is relentless !!! LOL... =)
