Description

Tamiya UK have been told by Tamiya Japan that there will be no more production runs of this model and that there are no plans to do so in the future and that we (RSC) will not be getting any more stock. This is not ideal but is outwith our control. Sorry to disappoint guys!

Tamiya is delighted to announce that a new colour variation version of the Porsche Turbo RSR Type 934 will be released as a 1/10 R/C model assembly kit to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Tamiya R/C!

The Porsche 934 holds a special place in Tamiya history as the product of our first R/C model kit. This model features a white colour body that recreates the Porsche Turbo RSR Type 934 which tussled at the top of races in the European Racing Championship in June 1976. Also, a photo-etched product plate and one-page printed message by Executive Chairman, Shunsaku Tamiya are included to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Tamiya R/C. It’s sure that this model will be a hot product for R/C fans!
