Japanese Harley Softail (model)
Well, kinda. I just ran across this the other day on a website and thought I'd share. Tamiya is a Japanese model company that is world famous for the amount of detail that goes into their model kits. This is even over the top for them.
This is a kit of a Fatboy Lo that is absolutely amazine. Remember, this is a 1/6th scale MODEL...
Cut away views of the working rear and front suspension...
Engine cylinder assembly...
And the cost...?
Retail of $375.00
Street price of around $285.00

Yea, the detail is crazy! Even comes with cast metal tools for assembly! I want to build one...LOL Check out the gallery on the official Tamiya site:

Note that even things like the heat shields are seperate from the pipes themselves! Nuts!

This is a pretty reputable place to get it from:
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LNDXGC
They also have discount codes each month which can get you $10-20 off. Tamiya models are some of the best in the world. The attention to detail that they put into their products is second to none.
