These shops are an Aladdins cave!!!. I’m here in the uk and it’s a bucket list thing for me to travel to one these locations and buy a few kits.. I’m 52 now so i better hurry up!!!
Oh man! I'd go broke in that second shop for sure! Nice ones you were able to pick up at both shops! Too bad the one you were aiming to get was not there but you still got some great kits!
Oh, tell me about it! Hobby shops in Bangkok are amazing... My only issue now is how to pack them in our cases to take Home 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for watching my video and leaving a comment. Hope you have a great day 👍👍
I just finished building my Wild One (Non blockhead version)...what an amazing and fun build, and actually very easy as well. Its a fantastic buggy, and I may buy the blockhead version and have both Wild Ones side by side on display at my home.
Guy 😮 awesome to see an actual model shop 😪 the Internet has destroyed actual shopping for model kits in the UK. My go to model shop was Great Dee models in the centre of Nottingham 😢 gone killed by the Internet. Great video, find me a Falcon pal 😮
Hahaha.. I'll have to find 2 then! I've been on the hunt for a Falcon for ages! Yeah, Asia do hobby shops the best.. Nothing beats the feeling of heading to a shop and picking up the kit you want 👍👍
The best Tamiya store I have been to is the Stargek store in Singapore. When I moved from SG to Manila I could take my spray paint cans but for my new job to KL I was not allowed to take my paint so gave it to my RC friends in Manila. I want the new BBX and do a motor and escape upgrade and A 180SX model to match my car I miss in Australia.
Wow. How do you get to travel around and visit all these hobby shops? Your work take you around the world? Tell me you got the M four! I’m looking for one
No 😪 The M-four was gone, i'm still on the hunt for one too... We can travel because we sold our business in 2021, so we decided to take a couple of years off to see more of the World. We are heading back to Australia next month 👍👍 Thanks foer watching the video 😁
@@tamiya_australia annoying is an understatement, seems you can get most kits and chassis any where but Australia. I’d order a BBX but I’m sure that the preorders are optimistic at best, I fear many will have paid up in full but not much stock will be distributed leaving many waiting. Could be wrong but I’ve heard the stories.
Hey there, I’m currently in Bangkok now and plan to visit both shops today ! Strange question… but when you scoop 2-3-4 kits do you post them back to Aus ? Or take them on the plane back (hold of course).
You are in for a treat! If you post them, you have to pay GST on the import, so i bring them in our checked luggage... In a standard suitcase, i can usually get 2 standard sized kits... Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍
@@tamiya_australia Thank you for the reply, just went with the one kit…. For now. Love the vids…. I walked from premium to RCA was not brave enough to jump on the boat.
A lot (all in my area) Hobby and RC shops in US and Canada have gone bankrupt. There were auctions with containers of these kits, going for $/lbs. I can tell you in Montreal Canada, we used to have several including one of the biggest, the size of a few warehouses. All gone bankrupt. Drones and aliexpress sort of destroyed it all.
That is such a shame 😪 Some of my fondest memories growing up are of me and my Dad goimg tto our local hobby shop.. Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 😁
@@tamiya_australia So are mine. We'd look at kits and talk about what to build next, and so on. Tamiya was always premium quality, so we would eye them, but it was out of our range. I hope they (and you) can survive these very strange times.
Thanks for watching our video! Please like, subscribe and hit the bell icon ❤
Happy kid coming out of store🤙🤙
For sure 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi Tamiya, I am from VN, I view your video all. Thanks for your creative.
These shops are an Aladdins cave!!!. I’m here in the uk and it’s a bucket list thing for me to travel to one these locations and buy a few kits.. I’m 52 now so i better hurry up!!!
Oh, you're right on! You hunt through and can find some awesome stuff! Never too late either, 52 is young 👍
I've really enjoyed your video! I hope more will come soon 😊
Thank you very much 😁 Yes, plenty more to come! Thamk you for your kind comments, have a great weekend 👍
You’ve found some awesome items there!!! Cool!! Great to see some of those older kits still on the shelf!!
Yeah, it's pretty exciting to find old kits on shelves still.. Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍
Hehe, too much fun looking at all those kits etc, and clearly the best way to keep fit I can think of!!!!!!! 😁👍
For sure!!! Sesrching for hobby shops certainly helps you do some walking distance 😁 Thank you so much for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍
Wish there was a Tamiya store around here. The shops around here don't carry the kits at all. Not even parts for them
Lucky that we can order online i guess! Thanks for watching our video 👍

You mean YOU killed the model shop by shopping on the internet.
@@stejer211 nope the Internet did 😪
@@vintageschumacher What you are actually saying is that you have never bought anything on the internet.
@@stejer211 🤪 I only use the Internet now to buy stuff. Because online shopping destroyed model shops.

Oh, Stargek is amazing... I did a video there, check out our channel 👍 Thanks for watching our video and leaving a comment 😁
@tamiya_australia I will check it out I an Australian expat now in KL but when I lived in SG enjoyed the rc scene though Malaysia has more places.
That was me that called that shoo asking them for shipping of the ta05mfour!
Hahaha.. Awesome👍👍 Did they have it when you called??
Ah man, did I see a RM-01 chassis in there somewhere? I would LOVE to get my mitts on that! Great video!
Cheers, thank you. The RM is a great chassis!
@@tamiya_australia Yeah I have been after one for years! Lol

tamiya -pls open ur stores in delhi also😘😘😘😘
Email your request to your local Tamiya distributor 👍👍
@@tamiya_australia pls send the request
You should get some CC01 because they stop making them. You know I'd also like to see you while playing with them.
I've got a CC01 at Home 👍👍 I never really run them THB.. I have a HPI Baja that i run sometimes and my old TA04Pro..
Those stores have more stock than half the shops in Victoria combined!
The Australian impost agent is trash!
Yeah, tell me anout it.. Tamiya could do so much more in Australia, it's pretty frustrating.

👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you 👍👍
Shame there wasn’t a few Blazing Blazer NIB on the shelf
Oh wow... That would be AMAZING 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I never heard of the Lowride Pumpkin before... I have the chrome edition Midnight Pumpkin, great lookin truck body
Yeah, it's a bit of a rare one! I've got a chrome Pumpkin too.. I like it better than the black one TBH 👍
Are you planning a visit to the wholesale markets of Guangzhou? Let me know if you need any pointers.
Thank you 😁😁 We are not heading to China at this point, but maybe on our next trip.. Thanks for your kind offer 😁
Great video i saw lots there i want mainly 1/14th trucks. How do you get them home? in luggage or suitcase?
Yeah, RC trucks are huge in Thailand.. I have a way of packimg kits up in my suitcase, i might make a how-to video👍👍👍
Do you think they would ship to the UK 😊
Maybe.. Flick them an email and see 👍👍
@@tamiya_australia will try that cheers

We get ripped off so bad in Australia LOL. It's not funny anymore!
Hahaha.. There are a couple of cheap stores in Australia still.. Check out Ace Hobbies in Midland WA.. They are my LHS and always have great prices👍
Tamiya Australia
You only do cars
There is soooooo much more
Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍
Id like a Wild Willy. I had one new in 1983 and sold it on a few years ago. Anyone seen one for sale?
You can still find OG Willy's... Keep an eye on eBay.. But it will be expensive!
@@tamiya_australia Yeah I bet. New in box would be nice. Ever run into one? The original?
Wish you could MOVE the ca m faster so we couldnt see anything

Overpriced plastic 😂
You have got to be worst camera operator, you barely look at anything and your camera is all over the place when you're filming the shelves.

Wow
