From Weekly Issues to Machine RS-1
A partwork is a publication sold in a series of issues, each carrying a magazine and a further set of parts or a model. Hachette Collections Japan was established in Tokyo in March 2003 as the partwork arm of Hachette Livre, the French publisher founded in 1826, and its Japanese titles include a long series on Japanese army and navy aircraft begun in 2009.
Machine RS-1 is the Nissan Skyline DR30 RS Turbo from the television series Seibu Keisatsu, and this 1/8 build was completed from the issues with its lights and gimmicks working, some marks as shown.
