1/12 Z32 300ZX?
Hey All,
I was wondering if anyone knew were to find, or have ever actually seen, a 300ZX (prefer the Z32, but I'd be interested in any of the "Z" cars...basically a 1/12 version of this body?
I'm hoping to find one to fit a Kyosho Plazma chassis (vintage OR Plazma RA).
I've just been coming up totally empty using the Google machine & figured I'd see if anyone in here had ever laid eyes on one.
Thank you!

Perhaps you've seen this?
It's not exactly the same but it is a Z car.

That was my donation. It’s from the Minicraft Academy 1/12 copy/clone of a Kyosho Super Alta. Here is the worst box art pic you have ever seen

It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

I am familiar with Team Blue Groove, but must have missed that one... It's the older body style (pre-1990), but I still love it! Thank you so much! I hope it'll be a close fit with the Kyosho chassis..

Re: 1/12 Z32 300ZX?
So I've decided to go with that Team Blue Groove older generation 300ZX (once they reopen ordering after the holidays anyway) & just hope that it's a decent fit with one of my old Kyosho 1/12s... Next mission is finding some "Z" decals to dress it up. The only thing close I've been able to dig up are vintage Tamiya & almost $100/sheet on eBay. Anyone know a source for something like this that doesn't cost 3x what the actual body does?

Re: 1/12 Z32 300ZX?
Thank you - I hadn't. I do love the 280Z style as well... I'll definitely save this to my list, though I do want to dress up a 300ZX first. My 1st choice is the Z32 (1990-96) body style, but I don't think that one exists.

Wrong scale but If you can find a 10L or something McAllister make a 300z
