  • I thought i'd give everyone a recap of my collection..
    Hope you like the video :)
    Tamiya Australia is an Instagram page and TH-cam channel dedicated to all things Tamiya. I have been collecting Tamiya RC products for over 35 years and have amassed a large collection of runners, new in box and shelf queens..
    I hope you enjoy the content that I make.. I do if for fun!
    Tamiya Incorporated (株式会社タミヤ, Kabushiki gaisha Tamiya) is a Japanese manufacturer of plastic model kits, radio-controlled cars, battery and solar powered educational models, sailboat models, acrylic and enamel model paints, and various modelling tools and supplies. The company was founded by Yoshio Tamiya in Shizuoka, Japan, in 1946.
    The company has gained a reputation among hobbyists of producing models of outstanding quality and accurate scale detail. The company's philosophy is reflected directly in its motto: "First in quality around the world". Tamiya's metal moulds are produced from plans with the concept of being "easy to understand and build, even for beginners". Even the box art is consistent with this throughout the company. Tamiya has been awarded the Modell des Jahres (Model of the Year) award, hosted by the German magazine ModellFan.
    Products currently commercialized by Tamiya include (toy and collectibles): scale plastic model cars, aircraft, military vehicles, motorcycles, figurines, radio-controlled cars, trucks, and tanks. Tamiya also produces materials and tools, including enamel paints, acrylic paints, airbrushes, aerosol paint, and marker pens.

    You have quiet a collection both built and unbuilt! Lots and lots of work getting them all back inside and cleaned up for being on display! I have to go through all mine and do a good wipe down of everything, I am both looking forward to it and not looking forward to it at the same time!! Thanks for the walk through and it was a perfect time to do it!

    Great collection man, thanks for the tour!
    Seeing the likes of you, and Keith over at rc icons makes me feel a lot better about my own modest collection! 🤣
    Something kinda special about Tamiya box art that dates all the way back to the early eighties don't ya think?! It always makes me feel like I'm just ten years old again! 🤣
    One thing I don't envy you on though is the amount of dusting you have to do there.... as we all know shelf queens are dust magnets! 🤣

    • @tamiya_australia
      @tamiya_australia  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hahaha.. They sure are! I am CONSTANTLY dusting! My Dad and i used to work on Tamiya cars together and run them at the park when i was a Kid.. He passed away over 20 years ago, so when i really miss him, i pull out a NIB and start building. It really feels like he is next to me, assisting and guiding me as i go... He always did the dampers, i hated those 🤣🤣 Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍

      Very sorry to hear of your father's passing, sounds as though you have some awesome memories of the Tamiya time you both spent together though.
      What a fitting way to remember him, I'm sure he is still there with you spiritually guiding you through the damper construction! 😉

    Epic 🤩 thanks for sharing. I'm a little frustrated as I haven't seen a proper Hotshot II (It was my 1st and only 1/10 Tamiya car back in the 80's); maybe it's hiding somewhere 😊

    If you set the cars on their chassis, the tires won't deform and crack while the age, and the suspension arms won't say. Simple small cardboard boxes would do the trick, or, cardboard tubes, or blocks of wood, etc.

    Yuck!
    Why would you do such a thing?
    Subconscious minds prefer matching sets.
    You've damaged your subconscious mind.
