Otto Kyosho vs Kyosho Samurai

Post by Mr.Impreza » Sat Oct 06, 2018 12:10 am

Hey so just wondering, is the Otto Kyosho line offer lower quality Resin models compared to the Kyosho Samurai models?

I notice there is a big price difference....so far I only have the Kyosho Samurai models and super pleased.
However the Otto Kyosho line have a lot of models I want, however I don't want lower quality so just wondering if there is a difference in quality or if there is no difference.

@[KRAFTIG] I believe maybe you'd be able to answer this since you get the review models :rockon:

It's all marketing crap. I have Otto's that are near perfect and better than 200+ euro resins.

If i'm correct we nowadays have:

Kyosho Samurai
Kyosho Ousia
Kyosho GT Spirit
GT Spirit
GT Spirit ACME
Ottomobile

And they are all the same........ Apart from the Ousia being sealed die-cast and the rest resin. Quality wise I can't see the difference, but pricewise there is. :scratchhead: I'm confused.

I would say these are from different manufacturers. As for quality they seem on par with the others, maybe a nod to Samurai. They look to be slightly more detailed and Asian market centrix.
