Limited edition original bodyshells re-releases
For years, Tamiyahas been releasing bodyshells in limited editions for special events in Japan, especially fairs, but also the Tamiya Modeler's Gallery and periodic animations in their Tamiya Plamodel Factory stores. For some of them, these bodyshells are only sold on the japanese market which makes it difficult to know they exist. Even more because Tamiya barely communicates about them. In fact, it is not easy to get them (especially when you don't live in Japan and you don't read japanese 
).
