Heres a video showing Tamiyas upcoming releases.

Came across this video whilst browsing the net.

Its in Japanese but I think we all understand images of models. Enjoy!

24343 1/24 Ferrari FXX K

92197 1/100 FUJI DREAM AIRLINES EMBRAER 175

35350 1/35 US TANK DESTROYER M10 (MID PRODUCTION)

37023 1/35 GERMAN FIELD MAINTENANCE TEAM Ando EQUIPMENT SET

(really excited about this one - modern armour in 1/48)

61114 1/48 Grumman F-14A Tomcat (tentative name) (new tool)

That Tomcat looks fantastic.

I want a Friction Powered Snail.

I'm going to check out that M10 Andy's Hobby HQ has recently released a review and build of the kit.

Its a shame that assualt gun is an R/C kit. Would love to make one of those in 1/16 if it was a proper model kit.

This among other things has convinced me that if I ever make it to Shizuoka I'll need to be strapped to the mast like Ulysses else I blow our savings away. Not really related but it's damned cool, the Bandai factory in Shizuoka:

That girl in the first video sounds like she has an adult toy down her pants looking at the Tomcat. Watch it from 3.30 to 4.30 with that thought in your mind.... I want the Tomcat, it will remind me of her. I'm sure the guy is calling it a 'Tommycat.'

Heh, yeah. That's a typical Japanese set-up, two people with mics; one expert, one hype man/woman. It's literally her job to ask leading questions and then be blown away by every answer.

And yes, that Tomcat is amazeballs. In fact, that's what she's being all excited about, the new detailing and bonus parts--believe it or not.

I think she's just excited...

Wouldn't you be? "A special decal set and payload option? They surprised us yet again! AHHHHHHH!!"

Danger Zone plays in her head. Maybe beach volleyball, depends on what she enjoyed most in that movie.
