Fujimi 171029 Wangan Midnight - 1 Fairlady S30Z Devil Z 1/24

The Fujimi 171029 Wangan Midnight - 1 Fairlady S30Z Devil Z model in 1/24 scale is a faithfully reproduced replica of the famous sports car known from the cult Japanese manga and anime Wangan Midnight. This model represents the legendary "Devil Z" – a uniquely modified version of the Datsun Fairlady Z S30Z that has become an icon among Japanese car enthusiasts and fans of Japanese car culture.

The S30Z, manufactured by Nissan for the Japanese market and exported as the Datsun 240Z from 1969 to 1978, was a true breakthrough in the world of sports cars. Known more widely as the Fairlady Z in Japan, it became a symbol of high performance available to a broad audience. In the Japanese Wangan Midnight series, the "Devil Z" gained almost mythical status — an untameable, fast, and unpredictable car that, in the hands of the main character, was fit for extreme races on the Shuto highway.

• Scale: 1/24 – ideal for display and creating automotive-themed dioramas.

I definitely recommend this model to all car model building enthusiasts and admirers of Japanese automotive culture. The Fujimi Devil Z 1/24 is an excellent choice both as a first model for beginners and as a challenging project for advanced modelers — especially those interested in dioramas or who enjoy customization and tuning.

Build difficulty: 3/5 – The model is satisfying to build and offers plenty of room for painting and detailing, but does not require advanced modeling skills. An excellent proposition both for intermediate and more experienced modelers.
