We got a slew of new items in from Tamiya. They include not only 3 new (likely as yet unreleased) kits, but also some new paints, dio pigments, and more.

Great news. I have been awaiting their 1/48 Elefant. I suspect "Frank" is their venerable kit but the "Tony" - a new kit???

The Ki-61 is all new and loaded with detail. It is a very impressive looking kit. I like the "diorama in the box" approach with the Ki-84. Both look like great kits.
