    Crazy collection. I only have 4 cars but like you I have my original Big Wig from '89. Finding parts for it is so hard.

      4 is an awesome collection.. At some point, you stop owning your collection and your collection starts owning you! Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment 👍

    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  Год назад +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 😊

    @sk7262 7 месяцев назад +1

    impressive collection for sure - but i do have to ask why? the maintenance bill and time for upkeep would be significant. i struggle to justify and maintain 10 RCs down from 15 from all categories

    • @tamiya_australia
      @tamiya_australia  7 месяцев назад +2

      That's a good question.. I have been collecting since i was 8 or 9 and just really never stopped.. My Dad and I used to build them together. He passed away a long time ago, so everytime I build or repair a car, it kind of feels like he is there with me...

    @red7fifty Год назад +1

    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.

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