- My journey to Tamiya Head Office in Shizuoka, Japan. After a flight about 13 hours we arrived in Tokyo. Then we took the Shinkansen (High Speed Train) to Shizuoka. After this we saw different places in Tokyo, Akihabara, Shibuya, Ginza, Sky Tree, Tokyo Beach, Asakusa and Ikebukuro. Very awesome City and Country, and friendly people!

that's probably the coolest place ever! sweet!
Nice to see the JPS F1 car with the logo intact.
It appears that Japan still treats adults like adults.
I fell in love with Japan when we went over there. Such beautiful architecture even in city and everything in order, especially the countryside is amazing.
100% agree! Was many times there for working, and last year for holidays, every time amazing!
That place is awesome. I don't think I would be able to leave there without buying at-least 1 RC car or truck kit or spending too much money. Great video Matteo!
Thank you! Yes there is really a great temptation!
do they have a tour guide, or is there no factory just offices? would love to see the factory manufacturing side as well.
Nice place to meet the Toyota land cruiser dakkar Mizuno and john player special car at shizuoka
I always wanted to visit there when I was a kid. I made a special journey years later and made nice friends at the race track and a local couple. What a lovely town and great experience.
Yes, it is. Always worth to go again...👍👍😊
My first real RC car was the Tamiya Frog. It got me into RC back in 87. Seeing it in that glass case made me tear up. Thanks for posting this, I wouldnt have thought to visit here on my next trip to japan next year. Now I am! Thanks!
Yes, go there if you have time! Thanks for your feedback! 👍😊
I've been to japan in summer 2013 I've visited Tokyo ,Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Nagoya and Mount Fuji but damn never crossed my mind to visit Tamiya's headquarters. Great country and the people are friendly too.
Abdulla Alsada Yes, I agree, I was many times in Japan for business, and at last I like to go only for me... and visited many nice places and Tamiya. Thanks for your comment!
I think I will make a detour there next year. hop in and hop out.
I just can't believe the level of craftsmanship that goes into the product - and this is prior to 3D printers...
Yes, they do a great job! 😊👍
Great brand! I love their paints!!!
Yes, some of the best paints! 👍 Thanks! 😊
No problemo man :) wish they would have granted you the "grand tour" with ejection molds n stuff!
After watching this video a dozen times, I finally got to go myself. What an amazing place! Thank you for sharing how amazing this place is, I wouldn't have known about it without you.
Thanks for your nice feedback! Glad it was inspiring for you!
Yay, that 6 wheel tyrrell was the first RC car I owned! Memories!
Niall Allen Yes, memories from the good old days!

Practically a museum! So cool.
This was the first video of yours I ever saw, when I was just getting back into the RC scene.
Thanks for keeping us entertained and informed Matteo!
Thanks for your nice Feedback! 👍😊
Grew up in the 80's as a kid. Many things in this video brought back memories. That full sized Sand Scorcher looked incredible. Nicely done video too! Thank you!
+xhardwarex Thanks so much for your nice comment! By the way, have you seen this video (about memories): ruclips.net/video/Mxtt0FB2mWw/видео.html
Thanks for the suggestion. Just watched it and it definitely brought back memories. Being a kid around RC in the 80's was such a great time.
My dream come true finally, thank you Matteo's
Been to Tokyo 3 times and never knew I was so close.
I wanna cry now.

I am glad to you safe back home without(?) accident and you reached to TAMIYA head.
Oh! You saw many towns, awesome!!
I am passing Akihabara station everyday for work to Yotsuya.
Possibly we passed with each other on a road.
Thank you for a precious video.
Wow, i'd love to go there one day. Thank you for sharing the experience with us :)
+Ryan super Thank you for your nice comment!
Had a Tamiya LunchBox rc truck back in 1989. Loved it!
That was cool, the detailing on the 1 : 1 scale cars was amazing
Yes, amazing details! 😂😂😂
I feel like you have stood on Hallowed Ground!!! What I wouldn't give to go THERE! Matteo, you are truly a lucky and privileged Man!! Japan has an almost magical look to it.
You are right, it's a privileg to get a chance to go there! Japan is truly a very impressing country!
to be honest tamiya is my second favorite rc cars. right after kyosho. because kyosho made realistic design and advance features than any other rc cars you see today.
Good, Kyosho is my second brand, and I love it too. But back in the 80es, my parents bought me a Tamiya, since then my heart beats for Tamiya. But I like Kyosho produces boats and airplanes also! Thanks for your comment!
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WONDERFULL YEARS OF GREAT TAMIYA PRODUCTS. MY SON IS NOW ENJOYING HIS FIRST SUBARU BRAT AND THE FOX BUILDS!!! MR.TAMIYA......THANK YOU!!!
Robert Brower Jr I agree with your good comment!
Gostei demais, principalmente qdo aparecem os F-1, amei muito, dá vontade de pegar e entrar e sair pilotando!!!!
Muito lindo! Obrigado!
This will definitely be on my to-go list when I visit Japan!
Yes, this is good! 👍😊
The Japanese are unsurpassed in their commitment to excellence. The Tamiya products showcased in this video are proof.
Yes, No. 1 in quality around the world! 😊👍
I was born, grown up in this city. and still now living near here. So I drop in this HQ to buy some parts often. Even such as me still get excited everytime. thank you for uploading. I can guide anytime if someboey want. you should visit Tamiya RC circuit near here and also much much bigger circuit in Kakegawa city.
Very cool! Thank you so much! It's great to live so close to this magical place! 👍😊
I would have spent at least a few grand in that shop.
Matt R C Yes, the temptation is great, but the space in the luggage is limited!
@@Matteomeier noted....packing extra large empty suitcase
you are what the japanese hate
@@CobraCommanderX why?
I live in Japan.
I have never been there.
You have brilliant courage.
Your Questing heart is wonderful.
日本に住んでますが、行った事がありません。
貴方の探求心は素晴らしいです。
Thank you so much for your awesome comment! I really appreciate your good words! どうもありがとう
I go to Tokyo, jump on a train and hug mount Fuji. You .... you go to Tamiya! I really must make better decisions with regards places of interest :D
Just Me Lol, next time you can go to Tamiya and I'll climb on mount Fuji!
Brilliant video makes me want to go back to Japan lovely people lovely country.
Thanks Cris! Yes a very nice country!
This made me remember why I love Tamiya's rc cars
Thanks for your nice fedback!
no problem! love your videos too ;)
I still have one of their R/C cars the Grasshopper II. I haven't played with it in awhile though, but it still works. I bought it back in the 90's.
It's great to own an old classic from back then!
At 2:49
Tamyia Toyota Hilux.
Look at that...! Had one as a child.. here's hoping it gets Re-released at some point along with the Blazing Blazer. Great Video.. :-)
Thanks a lot for your nice comment! You was a lucky kid! If you are interested in his Hilux maybe this video is something for you: ruclips.net/video/dU95ByEKpc0/видео.html
***** I'll check it out. .Thank you. ☺
I visited that building and wondered off too different floors pretending I got lost! I saw so much more.
I've seen more too, but I focused on rc models.
I'm japanese.
I love TAMIYA too !
Nice! Thanks! 🇯🇵
I am Chinese, living in Japan. One of the reason I came to Japan because I am crazy Tamiya RC fan.
Amazing how clean and tidy Japan is... No graffiti, no trash... It puts the U.S. to shame.
+bmw racer Thanks for your comment, yes, japanese people are very orderly!
日本に来てたんですね！！
Brings back memories! I grew up on many of the kits!
Nice! Thanks! 😊
I've been wanting to go there since 1988.
The Temple of RC
Awesome. Went there in 2015 sat there for hours didnt want to leave.
Nice! Thanks for your feedback! 😊
I love Tamiya.
edstar83 Me too!
When I was young I had the Tamiya Grasshopper TAM58346 then I bought the Tamiya Monster Beetle TAM58618 that was the most happiest time of my life, specifically when I changed the stock engine of the Grasshopper from a Mabushi RS380 to the Mabushi RS540, that buggy was a bullet!
Thanks! Yes, was good times back then! 😊😊👍
Matteo! I love the instrumental Asian music!
+Golden Manuever Thanks!
Just to say I visited again a few weeks ago, still a great place, but the big Hobby Square advert as you exit onto the Shinkansen platform has gone!!! But there is a big Tamiya advert on the opposite side - Phew.As we entered and met the person on the front desk, she thanked us for visiting, I love the Japanese people, and the shop was just as good with discounts for purchases that you can redeem on items there and then.I hope I will visit again soon.
Thanks for your comment! Yes it is, hope I can go to Japan again too!
no one sells the king Blackfoot parts can't find them anywhere need to remake that truck it was the best truck you made I had like 6 of them I run them for a little while then people want to buy them I've got one left I want more the king Blackfoot
number 1 on bucket list, great to look around
Oh by the way if someone is in Malaysia there's a Tamiya Underground store at Bandar Utama ,One Utama , Selangor if someone didn't know
日本に来てくれてありがとう。また かっこいい動画お願いします。。
That is my Mecca. So very awesome, thank you for sharing your experience!!!
+Paul Onorato Thanks for your nice feed back!
When i first landed in Japan.....16 years ago....I deeply fell in love with everything that this country!!!
Yes, its an amazing country! Thanks for your comment!
And yeah ...gimme that full size Sand Scorcher.. wow
amazing... a flood of emotions watching the old RC cars!.. thanks for sharing
Thanks for your nice feedback!
HEAVEN does exist on our Planet, amazing! I would love to visit and see all this with my own eyes one day, Speechless! Thank you! :)
The wide range of models and how good they look has always caught my eye. I am an American muscle car guy but I want the Tamiya Honda CRX it's just too cool.
Thanks for your nice feedback! Yes, the CRX is cool!
Thanx for the video! very entertaining..
But a bit sad at the end :-(
Ronald Moore Thank you, glad you like it! And yes, the end... but unfortunately every thing have an end!
I know I have seen this video many many times but I keep catching new cars and trucks that I've discovered since watching the previous time!
Feel free to watch it as often as you like! Thanks for your comment!
HEAVEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNN :)
Just to say I made it there mate, it was like re living your video! Train stations are just immaculate and the taxi driver, all I had to say was Tamiya and he was off!Just brilliant to visit, see the full size sand scorcher and all the static model kits, and to say I had been there.Went a bit mad in the shop too but well worth it. Also visited the Tamiya shop in Shimbashi as well, made a few more purchases, I could have stayed in there all day, just brilliant!Thanks again for the video it helped me out so much mate.Kev
This is great! Nice, you've got your own experience in Japan! Thanks for your good feedback!
i dream some day tamiya in lebanon ilove tamiya
This is nice! Tamiya lovers all over the world!
Matteo's RC Movies
That's awesome!! This is like saint Grail for people who love models)) Thank you for your video!)
allahuakbar!
+MR. G.A.N why?
Lebanon is majority christian, stupid !
Something magical is going on in the Tamiya factory. ☺
Thank you! That's true!
Thanks for the video. Just returned from Japan vacation, fantastic ! Curious, how much was the taxi from terminal to Tamiya bldg. ? Can't wait to revisit this wonderful country. Thanks again .
Nice! Oh, I do not remember how much the taxi was, but quit expensive... 😅
I searched comments to find the same answer lol
Another great and interesting video, Matteo!
We could watch TAMIYA for ages!
While Lego for example becomes more and more annoying, TAMIYA has become compared to f. ex. the 1980-ies even better. They improved for instance The Frog and others. TAMIYA is repecting their fans and deliver them what they want. TAMIYA is just awesome! Of course people go and start all over again. Please, TAMIYA, bring the re-issue of the Falcon and crank up the production of The Big Wig. Thank you very much!
Well said! Thanks! 👍👍😊
I had visited there for several times, every time my girlfriend urging me to leave just like every time I did to her in clothing stores. (＞﹏＜)
+mr523592891 Yes, I know that. I was there with my daughter (teeny) and spend hours in clothing stores in Tokio! :-)
Been there in 2006, your video brought back the great memory. Nothing much have changed except they have showcased some later models that were released after 2006. Excellent video!
Thank you for the nice comment! Glad you like it!
ola gostaria de saber onde posso comprar escavadeira tamiya
Danke sehr für dieses Video! Unsereins kommt da ja eh nie hinn. Hast du auch Einblick in die japanische RC Szene bekommen?
crawlervideo Danke für deinen Kommentar! Ja, ist halt nicht gleich um die Ecke...
Leider haben wir sonst von RC Aktivitäten nicht viel mitgekriegt, waren halt auch nur einen halben Tag bei Tamiya.
You are very lucky my friend. You have visited the place that every TRUE modeler would like to go. I hope that you enjoyed it. Bravo.
I need a whole front and for a king Blackfoot I wish you could come out with that truck again that truck was the best truck you made the Blackfoot family You could beat those trucks to death I need a front end please comment back what front and is compatible with the king Blackfoot please let me know thank you very much
So beautiful... Like paradise..
Thank you!

Loved the tamiya highlifts, haven't seen one in along time.
Thanks! I have a lot of High Lift Videos on my Channel: ruclips.net/video/wixlEMimX7U/видео.html
seeing some of them old cars brings back some memories that's for sure.
Yes, the good memories when we were young... 😊
I too walked through those doors a year ago! BEST day ever!
I was there this past February, it really is a great place. Both the factory and the country. I actually got to meet Mr. Tamiya himself! He let us take an informal tour of the rest of the factory!
Wow, cool to meet mr. Tamiya! 👍😊
A nice slice of heaven for any fan of Tamiya products. Wicked job on the video, enjoyed it very much. Thank you.
i also loved the Mini4wd's. many of my best childhood afternoons. great video
Thanks! 👍😊
When you were driving away and the text appeared "time to go home" I felt the sweet sorrow. Thanks for the video it was almost like being there.
+VisualWarp Thanks for your nice comment !And yes, goodbye was a melancholic moment.
Thank you for the nice comment! I am sure come back to Japan! Oh, nice little Suzuki!
Great vid.Respect for one of the best and most detailed manufacturers.Love them since the 70,s although I,m into big scale warbirds now.
Thanks Jean! Big scale warbirds are amazing, I'm into rc airplanes too, but not on this level! Love these Moki radial engines!
Check out that mint looking RC Blackfoot, I still have mine with the Acoms radio although it doesn't look anywhere as nice as that, just need a new battery. Could spend all day in there for sure. Loved the full size Sand Scorcher. Great vid.
Thanks for your nice feedback! 😊
Oh my Gods... I had no idea I wanted to visit that place until you showed it to me! It was an amazing video thank you so much for sharing! Best video ever on RUclips!
Thank you for this nice comment, I am glad you like it and give you a small insight into Tamiya head office!
I just never imagined it to be this awesome. For some reason, as a kid I didn't even dream about one day visiting the place. You did all of us a huge favour by placing this awesome image in our heads, and a massive dose of nostalgia kicked in. So much so, that I've just ordered my first RC Car as a kid... The Grasshopper! Being from 77, seeing Tamiya still active warms my heart, and even more so knowing there are so many out there who share this nostalgia today. :)
Thank you for the comment, I am glad you like it!
I'm very impressed at your passion for arriving at tamiya head quarter through long travel from abroad.
Yes, was a long trip. But combined with other attractions in japan! 👍😊
Thanks for making such a nice video about it. Cool music. Magical place.
Thanks so much for your nice comment!
:-O Matteo!!! You visited Mecca!!! And rode the Bullet Train!!! I am so envious. I have wished to visit this paradise for over three decades now. :-) A lovely film. Many thanks for sharing. :-)
Thanks alot for your nice words, yes it was it worth to go there!
Wow, what a place thanks for sharing! At first I thought; 'oh no, no Sandscorcher, my first RC car'. Then the real Sandscorcher and RC model - wow! Shame they didn't have the Wild One, always thought that was a nice scaler type model, my mate had one. What a place though, original boxes, artwork, box art models etc etc. My mind is blown!
Thanks for your nice feedback! 👍👍😊😊
This is so wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I just bought my first rc truck for me and my son. We got the other popular brandname then have been checking your videos and already subscribed so, maan! I'm sold..we will get at least 3 Tamiya models from now until Christmas...wow, man! I'm getting addicted to this! Thanks Matteo!
saby7 That's Great! You will have lots of fun with your Tamiya's for sure! I wish you a wonderful time together with your son and the rc models!
Woooo. Greatest collections of RC cars...
Fantastic video! A real throwback to my childhood when I was obsessed with the make.
moosehak Thanks for your comment, nice to bring back good memories, maybe you will restart your RC career! :-)
***** you know it's funny, when i was younger i had the super sabre. However, i always wanted the avante. I hear that Tamiya have made a 2011 avante. Perhaps my chance to get the car I never had but always dreamt of is now a real possibility lol
moosehak Yes, that's exactly my experience! Wanted as kid the Bruiser so bad but could not afford one. And now Tamiya bring back the old classics so we have a second chance!
