Tamiya Hotshot 2 Build Manual

2011-03-28T10:08:00.000+01:00

Ive had this manual in picture format for years and its one of the few that Ive managed to hold onto after losing my archive of them. In my mind the Hotshot 2 was one of the definitive Tamiya kits representing ultimate coolness with a great piece of kit. My only gripe with this kit was the way the chasiss was designed.

Tamiya Mitsubishi Pajero Build Manual

2011-03-22T21:27:00.000+00:00

This is a bit of a rare find but I actually managed to get hold of the build manual for this classic off roader. I think its based along the lines of the Wild Willy as well as many of Tamiya's vintage kits relied on the body shell to identify the kit.

Tamiya Fox Build Manual

2011-03-21T13:12:00.002+00:00

Based on a two wheel drive version of the Hotshot the Fox was one of my favorite kits. I still have one semi built hidden away which I will rebuild at some stage. Here is the instruction manual for it...

Tamiya Hornet Build Manual

2011-03-21T11:15:00.001+00:00

The Hornet was only ever meant to represent an entry level radio controlled kit but turned into possibly the flagship model with its simple construction and iconic design. Used as the template for several other kits from the Tamiya range its always good to have a manual to hand.

Tamiya Wild One Build Manual

Got a Tamiya Wild One and need to know either how to take it apart or which blister pack or part section you need to replace look no further. Here is the full original build manual...

Classic Tamiya

2011-01-14T15:54:00.001+00:00

Ive been a Tamiya fan since I was young and have lots of fond memories of spending hours building and upgrading my kits before going out racing them on the streets with my friends. I have some of the old instruction build manuals which I have held onto over the years and decided to publish them to assist other enthusiasts.

I will build the blog with my manuals and sticker sheets and other useful information and links. Also have a look at my Top10 kits list -> -> -> Top Tens Tamiya Kits
