Tamiya Store Tokyo | Is New Better Than Old | Vlog 003

Thanks for the shoutout and link Yong! Excellent video as always. It’s so nice to see the old store again. You have captured it in great detail! I guess the new store will need time to grow it’s own soul.😅

Thank you again for letting me use your video in mine. Yours too captures the new in great detail. I will miss the old store. I’m sure the new will develop its own character over time as well.

My head is exploding! I love Tamiya and could spend all day in that store. I need to go to Tokyo now. Great video!

[@t-studioworks]

I would love to go immediately too to the new store!

The new one is definitely bigger (and brighter) and I didn't feel like blocking others when I was browsing. It also has some seats and a café area so wife/gf could have a place to wait, LOL.

lol… a place for the wife to have coffee is a great improvement!

I was at the new store a couple of weeks ago, very spacious and the cafe is nice touch..,but the pricing is a bit more expensive than other stores but it's still worth a look

If it impressed, then the concept would have done its job at making you buy although at another shop. 😂

I was there this past August. The new store is very spacious, but I bought my Tamiya models from Yodobashi Camera, Radio Kaikan, and Tam Tam. I will return next August and I’m trying to find a way to buy a lot of Tamiya paint and ship them by boat to the USA.

I don’t think Tamiya minds buying from others. It’s a flagship store showcasing the best but their distributor network is huge and can do better discounts. What’s important is to have a strong presence especially in Tokyo.

It was a great store to visit with such an awesome range to look at but not the best place to buy, it was quite a bit more expensive than all the other stores i visited in japan.

[@t-studioworks]

You are right as it is the flagship showcase store. I don’t think Tamiya minds buying from others their distribution network must be worth so much more, it’s the presence in Tokyo that’s important for us to go to.

The basement would be a brilliant man-cave!
