1/24 scale homage to the BG5 Legacy Touring Wagon

This Aoshima kit captures the practical yet sporty attitude of the BG5 Legacy Touring Wagon in 1/24 scale. It is aimed at scale enthusiasts who value authentic lines and parts that assemble into a strong display model.

Origins and styling cues

The original Legacy Touring Wagon is noted for combining utility with dynamic design cues. Aoshima reproduces those cues in miniature, letting builders recreate the wagon's profile and characteristic detailing.

Build focus and finishing advice

Recommended for intermediate builders, the kit contains detailed components that reward careful trimming, seam work and paint. A well-executed interior and neat exterior finish will make the model stand out on a shelf or diorama.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Build time varies with skill and finish level but allow several evenings for careful assembly and painting, longer if you add custom detailing.
Use polystyrene cement or plastic model glue for strong, clean bonds. Apply sparingly to avoid excess on visible surfaces.
Many builders swap wheels to achieve a specific stance or period look. Check hub fit and wheel diameter before fitting.
Masking is recommended for windows and lights to protect clear parts during painting and to keep crisp edges.
