Tamiya 23455 McLaren Senna 1/24


This Tamiya 1/24 scale model recreates the 2019 McLaren Senna in hyper detail! Named after legendary Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna, this extremely track-focused hypercar is McLaren’s most calculated masterpiece. Its unmistakable appearance is dominated by numerous air intakes and aerodynamic addendum that create incredible downforce. Combine that with the extensive use of lightweight carbon fiber throughout and an insanely powerful engine and you have the recipe for a vehicle that launches like a missile and handles the curves like a go-kart!

• 1/24 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 198mm, width: 91mm, height: 60mm.
• The sleek aerodynamic body’s form is captured in style. Uniquely, it is composed of a single monocoque part onto which body panels are attached individually, allowing a highly realistic depiction of the car.
• Parts are designed to be assembled into blocks of the same color, streamlining the painting process.
• Features a realistic depiction of the V8 twin turbo engine and visible sections of the complex surrounding engineering.
• The model can be assembled as European, U.S. or Japanese spec.
• Separate parts for brake calipers and discs ensure that while the wheels (and brake discs) rotate, the caliper remains stationary for super realism.
• The dashboard can be assembled in the standard roadgoing or streamlined racing positions.
• Metal transfers recreate McLaren logos.

Satoshi Maezumi (Paisen RC) video review of the Tamiya Lunch Box



The lunch box, named after the “lunch box” that carries lunch, is a particularly popular machine among the big tires. In spite of its comical appearance, it speeds up and you can enjoy a very powerful run.
It is an all-round, highly runnable machine with agile movement and handling.
In addition to the XB finished product that can be played right out of the box, the conventional assembly kit is also on sale. You can purchase it at your local hobby shop or RC specialty store.

Tamiya figure remodeling contest 49th prize-winning work announcement

In 2020, the casual daily life changed completely. Every day there are no signs of an end, but at the 49th Doll Remodeling Contest, we have a collection of masterpieces filled with all your thoughts. This time, I focused on works based on the activities of Ken Shimura, who died in the spring of this year. You can see how much the character was loved. In addition to this, I am grateful that works with the theme of the new corona were submitted from various perspectives and participated in the contest while coping with the current situation. Next time is finally 50 times. I hope that you will be able to welcome this memorable tournament in a sunny mood.
