The Celica Supra remains a standout classic among Japanese performance cars. Tamiya 24033 reproduces the marshal car variant seen at Long Beach in miniature, giving modellers a compact, historically inspired kit to assemble and display. The build balances detail and straightforward construction for hobbyist enjoyment.
The Celica lineage started in the 1970s and developed into a larger, more powerful model by the early 1980s. The Celica XX 2800GT, often called the Celica Supra, used a 2.8-liter DOHC six-cylinder powerplant in production form. For race-related service at events like Long Beach, turbocharging brought additional performance to some examples, emphasising the model's capable nature.
This kit highlights signature elements such as the wide overfenders and pronounced roof spoiler, with crisp plastic parts that reflect the car's silhouette. It offers a satisfying assembly for modellers who want an accurate period piece for display or inclusion in a race paddock vignette.
