Where can I find the strange models of Tamiya?

[Tunero]

Hello, I wonder wher can I find this models, models that i can't see in my country (Spain) and also in www.hlj.com

I say models as this:






and other strange models as Toyota Supra T&F that I see here...

Thank you or as i say GRACIAS!

Most of those 'strange models from Tamiya' you see here are actually photo-shopped images of a model somebody is custom building.
For example, those 2 Ferrari 360's don't exist as a kit, but the person is converting the 360 kit into them.

Usually the person is starting with a standard kit and scratchbuilding the parts and making it look like the car they want, like the F&TF Supra 'kit' you saw.

That second group you have there are all regular kits from Tamiya, so you should find them on hlj.com, except maybe the mercedes

Ferrari New Spider, Dream 360 are photshopped. The rest are at www.hlj.com, except for the Mercedes CLK-GTR Original Teile, which is OOP, and the original 350Z, which is OOP as well.

Dan, I think he was referring to the rest you see on AF too though, like Jay's 'Spoon S2000' and some of the others
