Tamiya Limited editions

For many years, Tamiya took the habit of releasing models produced in limited series. However, for reasons we don't understand, these models were released In so many different series of references that it is became difficult for fans to even know about them, not to mention finding them.

This is the meaning of this article: limited series models released in the standard 58xxx series are not to be listed here, neither are the TRF kits which are listed in another article.

 

23000 series

This series counts Ready To Run models, but they are different from those found in the XB Pro series (whenever applicable). In addition to the RTR condition, the models listed here are generally equipped with the optional light and sound unit (MFC-02) or a light system (TLU-01), but this does not apply to all the models of the series.

As it seems, this series is still active, despite the latest model aging from 2012.

47100 series

To my knowledge, this series has never been used so far by Tamiya.

 

47200 series

Another series abandoned by Tamiya for years: it only counts 2 models, both based on the 1/18th scale TLT-1 chassis (Tamiya Little Truck).

47300 series

This is a whole new series inaugurated in 2015, but it became more widely known by the end of 2016 when the first information leaked about the Bigwig re-release. However, Tamiya retroactively modified the reference of already existing 84000 models to incorporate them into this new 47000 series. Only the kits are listed here: when the model was “transfered” from the 84000 series, I added the “old” reference. When the model is a re-release, more information can be found in the article on .

49000 series

From the beginning of the 2000, Tamiya used this series for limited series RC products, from re-released models “as per original” or “modernized” up to modern hopped-up chassis. This series seems to have been abandoned because it “reached” old references used previously.
