Look What I Found!!! - 05.23.2007, 02:57 AM

I was digging through an old box the other day, one that had some old car and motorcycle magazines and drawings that I had done when I was a kid (well, I'm still a kid, but lets say back in the 80's when I started High School). Well if I didn't just happen to stumble across an old Tamiya catolog that I had saved. Most of you in your 30's should remember most of these pics. It's got model kit motorcycles, cars, tanks, ships, WWII planes and of course...RC!
It's missing the front & back cover, but it appears to be from the mid to early 80's era.
Enjoy.
