2002-07 SUBARU IMPREZA WRX STI
3D TOOLING MOCKUP (1:64) The second-generation Subaru Impreza was the first car to really cement Subaru as a performance car option in the United States. Though the previous GC8 platform was already a legend on the World Rally stage, the U.S. always missed out on the higher horsepower turbo variations of the Impreza. That all changed in 2002 with the introduction of the “bugeye” Subaru Impreza WRX to the states. Now young enthusiasts finally had an option that checked all the boxes for a perfect daily driver. The AWD powertrain made them fun year-round, while the 227hp turbocharged flat-4 engine provided tons of tuning availability. With the facelift in 2004 the “blobeye” Impreza upped the ante for U.S. fans by finally offering the top performance level 300hp STi trim in the states. For 2006 Subaru tweaked the model again with the introduction of the sleek and aggressive “hawkeye” facelift. With 3 different die-cast bodies, and multiple spoiler options, we are tooling the 2nd generation Impreza with the ability to release many WRX and STi trim levels throughout the production run. The possibilities for this tooling are endless, so keep your “eyes” peeled for more announcements soon!

STAR WARS TIE FIGHTER STUDIO SERIES
PRODUCTION MOCKUP (1:32) The TIE fighter was the perfectly suited workhorse of the Imperial fleet used for ship-to-ship “dog fighting”, full-scale assault, and ground support. The shrill roar of their twin ion engines and the distinctive silhouette of their solar array panels made them instantly recognizable. A lack of hyperdrive and defensive shield technology allowed them to be incredibly nimble and quick. However, it was the combination of specialized training and the ingrained victory-at-all-costs ideology of their pilots that made the TIE fighter one of the most lethal spacecraft in the Empire’s arsenal.
AMT proudly presents an ALL-NEW “Studio Series” large format plastic model kit of this iconic spaceship. This 13 ½” tall model features the intricate details present in the original filming miniatures along with a full cockpit that includes an Imperial pilot. Clear parts can be installed for a realistic look and assist the modelers who install custom lighting. A dome base with a metal support rod is included for a handsome display. A detailed replacement cap can be installed on the model when the display base is not used.
