Aoshima 05870 - 1/12 Honda Gorilla Z50JZ-3 Takegawa Custom 1978 Model Kit Summary

The Aoshima 1/12 Honda Gorilla Z50JZ-3 Takegawa Custom 1978 model kit is designed for modelers who appreciate compact vintage motorbikes. This scaled kit reproduces the silhouette and styling of the 1978 custom Gorilla, including Takegawa-influenced details that make the bike stand out in miniature.

Precision Molding and External Detail

Parts are moulded to capture the small-scale features of the original, from frame lines to visible engine surfaces. The kit represents the Takegawa custom touches on the exterior, supplying accurate non-working engine facades rather than an operational powerplant.

Build Process and Finishing Touches

Assembly rewards careful model building and painting. Decals are provided to replicate original markings, and the instruction leaflet walks you through each stage. The 1/12 format allows fine detailing for those who enjoy delicate brushwork and weathering techniques.

Ideal for Display and Collection

The finished model is a neat display piece suitable for shelves or model cabinets. Its small size and period look make it an appealing addition to collections focusing on classic two-wheelers.
