An already small car now in a small scale! Ban Presto released a couple of 1/87 scaled Honda Beats in a bag with carded hang tag. The details are sub-par compared to similarly scaled Herpa models of other Hondas. Probably no more than a $1 at retail, these are not easy to find outside Japan. On the secondary market, costs are relatively high because of shipping.
By far the best made and most detailed 1/43 Honda Beat out there. MakeUp is known for detailed, high quality models and their Beat is no exception.
Festival Red, Everglade Green Metallic, Carnival Yellow
Diapet’s 1:35 Beat weren’t very detailed by current standards – lacking in detail and exhibiting a some chassis bending. More of a toy company with diecast models, Diapets are somewhat hard to find outside Japan and can be quite the collectable.
They were available in 3 colors in Diapet’s standard white windowed box of the time.
