Tamiya 66036 News File


Tamiya news has also reached the 600th issue in total, so we are introducing Tamiya news file here.
In the 1970s for Tamiya news hardcover files were made by other manufacturers that had metal fasteners, and if you keep it for a long time, the closed part and the back part tend to get dirty with rust etc. . However, this file has plastic fasteners and there is no worry about rust. It is also recommended for those who have collected Tamiya news for a long time, as well as those who want to start collecting new Tamiya news.
