Aoshima SNAP KIT (The Snap Kit) is a line of 1/32 scale plastic car model kits from Aoshima Bunka Kyozai of Japan, designed to be built without glue or paint. Parts snap together, and the body color is molded into the plastic itself, so the finished car shows its color straight out of the box. Aoshima simplifies the kits while keeping the cars faithful at 1/32 scale, and says they can be enjoyed by everyone from kids to adults. The series has been on the market since 2017.
P-Rex Hobby carries SNAP KITs of Japanese and European cars, including Nissan Skyline GT-R generations from the classic 2000GT-R and C110 to the R32, R33 and R34, the Nissan S30 and RZ34 Fairlady Z and the Nissan GT-R, Toyota GR Supra, Toyota 86 and GR86, Toyota 2000GT, Sprinter Trueno, Prius, C-HR and Vellfire, and the Suzuki Jimny and Hustler, plus Lamborghini Countach LP400, Countach LPI 800-4 and Aventador S. Most models come in several body colors, and "SP" versions are available for many cars. Initial D fans will also find Takumi's Hachiroku and Keisuke's FD.
