Tamiya RC 2023 Catalogue (Katalog) came in the post this week.
Thought you would all like to see what is inside! It is quite a comprehensive guide to parts and models in the RC stable for the next 12 months. I haven’t had one of these in years and they are super cool!
No surprises unfortunately and I was really hoping to still see the DN-01 tucked away in there 😔
Enjoy!

I have never thought about a catalogue before, the photos are good to see, and its good to get a breakdown of parts. I do think they should give them out for free, like how Argos used to have pallets of the big book of dreams, as ultimately it is a selling tool, and web presence is king. Free catalogues all round!
I want one but also do not want one. I want it to be able to thumb through and day dream build with but also don't want it as I will start buying more and more to actually build!!! "Free" catalog would end up costing me an arm and a leg!!
Still no rere falcon 😢 I want one of the tracked ford rangers. So cool
Your lucky Craig… I got a package straight from TamiyaUSA about 2 months ago, they sent me a Tamiya R/C Line-Up catalog… However…. It's Volume 1 2017 LMAO!!!!! WTF am I going to do with a 5 year old catalog??? (I look through it). Great video my friend and let me know if you help with your XV02 build.
Thanks for sharing, but what a bummer they left all trucks out for a seperate catalogue 🙁
Hi Craig, thanks for the presentation.
A high-lift's still a dream of mine. But with the MFC almost unpayable and somehow I'm happy with my TRX-4. So I'm now thinking of a TT-01 truck and I'm happy to see them still in the program.
Always nice to look back at kits from the last decade. Not that they bring anything new.
Great to see a Tamiya catalogue again brings back memories of flicking through them back in the 80’s and looking at all the wonderful cars. A great spot by Tamiya to put all the hop ups with each car great for reference might have to purchase one, and bit disappointed that there’s no Hotshot in there, might have to order one quick before they all go. Many thanks for sharing best wishes and have a great weekend
Thanks for sharing that, Craig – saved us buying one! it really is a lovely glossy production. Takes me back to the days when there was no internet and we read everything on paper! Trouble is, I want all the kits and bodies and hop-ups in that bloody thing! All the best, have a great weekend, matey! :))
I miss the days of getting catalogs in the mail, it was exciting! The internet has taken that away, but I still have the memories. Thanks for sharing this!
How rude I am disgusted and very upset Tamiya….No Hot Shot!!!!!! Great book lots of lovely quality pictures a lovely parts list! Thanks for sharing l was thinking of picking one up!
Very cool….haven't seen inside one of these since I was a kid.
Very cool mate . Where did you land this mate? I wonder if the hotshot has been discontinued?
Hi there Craig, oh wow! A glossy magazine! So remember these back in the 80’s really didn’t know they had these catalogues, especially with modern era of the www! I might try and locate a copy, so loved the glossy catalog, just something about having full glossy detailed magazines. I’ve drooled over the Highlifts, always dreamed of one of those great models, just so expensive. Thanks for sharing. Take care and best wishes to you all 😊😁😉
I could stare at this all day! So many wonderful models!
Thanks so much for sharing this with us Craig!👍😊
How much does that cost us dollars because I don't get those for free I get the RC ones for free for the California headquarters.
The Rock soccer is my favorite of the cro ones probably the least top heavy of the best looking.
Far as I know they still make the hot shot.
Please explain to me what AS paint is made out of.
That's handy..
Nice! Thanks for sharing.👍😊
Ace thanks enjoyed that 😊
Awesome mate, that XV01 pro was weird hey. Thanks for sharing that as I’ve literally never seen a catalogue before.
cheers! 🍻
thanks for sharing this one👍🏻😀
Havent had an original cataloque for more than 30yrs. But maybe I will order this one, just for the iconic moment to have it in my hands and look around.
Very nice Craig. Often wondered what exactly was inside but 12 quid is a lot of money for a poor old fart like me lol. Great stuff dude and keep'em coming matey
If i was 13 again i would circling the things i want/need and leaving out for the mother to see 😂
