Tamiya Model Kits
The art of modeling, built around detailed kits, radio control vehicles, Mini 4WD racers, paints, tools, and hobby supplies for builders who enjoy every step of the project.
Built for Model Hobby Enthusiasts
Tamiya Model Kits bring together the detail, assembly experience, and hobby creativity that model builders look for in a focused ecommerce collection.
From plastic model kits and car model kits to radio control car kits, Mini 4WD racers, paints, cement, primer, putty, and tools, Tamiya continues to be closely associated with hands-on modeling and precision hobby projects.
A Story Rooted in Modeling
Tamiya began in Shizuoka, Japan, where Yoshio Tamiya founded a sawmill and lumber business in 1946. A wooden model department followed in 1947, and the brand moved into the modeling business with wooden model kits before becoming known worldwide for plastic models and radio control vehicles.
That heritage gives today’s Tamiya selection a clear purpose: helping builders find model kits, RC cars, Mini 4WD, paint products, and accessories that support detailed assembly, customization, collecting, and display.
