Fujimoto Hobby - FH-TS01SZ - Truck, Intermodal, Forklift - Undecorated

Road Name History: Although they may be molded in color, unpainted and unlettered, undecorated products are marketed to modelers who seek to custom decorate their models for private roads and/or road and/or company names that were not commercially produced by any of the major manufacturers.

Undecorated models are frequently also unassembled or only partially assembled and required modelers to be comfortable with glue, paint and sometimes solder in order to prepare their models for display. Materials for these models can vary but often include plastic, pewter and resin. Models may or may not come with decals or other decorations such as plastic signage, railings and ladders to enhance the appearance of the final product.

Brand/Importer Information: Fujimoto Hobby is a Japanese manufacturer of N Scale collectible heavy equipment. Each box gets you a different random piece of construction equipment with accurate prototypical details. The items are kits and require some assembly, but as far as I can tell, no glue is required. The collectability/randomness of the box contents are a nod to the success of the Tomytec vehicular product lines. Nevertheless, the kits are interesting and well executed. Also, given that Japanese made construction equipment is very common on US based highway projects, these are models of prototypes you might see anywhere in the world, not just in Japan.

It would be nice if their website an packaging had just a little more English text...
