hey guys, bad news for ya. those are still italeri releases!!!!!! I thought that Tamiya bought molds from italeri when i first moved to Japan, too. But tamiya is the importer for italeri here in japan, just like the hasagawa does monogram/revel. its funny though to see Reboxed foreign kits in japan. if you want i can send y'all a tamiya TA183 hebukin if you want. don't get the options that are in the orginal Amtech kit, but you get tamiya's ketteran as a bonus, but its nothing more than a japan only import. sorry guys stug

Hi Steffen and SteveStug,

I have read those news from Tamiya and found that the product numbers for those new release are not Tamiya has been using for their poducts(such as 35xxx). And SteveStug is right that Tamiya is Iteralie's distributor in Japan.
