Default Have a Lego GT3 RS? Found a case for you!

Hi all,

After weeks of searching, I found a local manufacturer of top quality model frames and cases. Rick Shousha is the owner of www.modellers-workshop.com 514-973-7741

Rick is based out of Montreal and he custom made for me a double wood base, clear custom height and width case as well as painted the base black for me. He has many options outside Lego, just thought I would mention him and his work as he seems like good 'ol RL people

VERY reasonable price and shipping, took about three and half weeks to produce. Arrived in perfect condition. Could not be happier. No affiliation.

Excellent. I have a 1/8 Lowenbrau 962 and have been looking for a case.

Thanks.

Ronan I bought the white GT3RS offered on AliExpress. It was something like $79. It's exactly the same.

Sorry for the off topic question; but does that version have the operating PDK transmission like the Lego one?

I was really thinking hard to get this off of aliexpress too. But I`ve heard many reviews of it being missing parts or defective parts along with not so great instructions.

Give us the review when you finish building it! I would love to build one as well.

I am not a lego person by any means, but this porsche I would like to try building one with my daughter for the experience.

Sold out now (can probably find one on ebay) but a nice large scale GT3RS you don't have to build yourself.
