Plastic Model Shorts
Description: For model kit builders, hobbyists, and plastic model enthusiasts who'd rather spend time assembling the perfect build than doing anything else. This humorous design is perfect for fans of scale models, mecha-inspired creations, military kits, cars, aircraft, and creative hobby projects. A great gift for anyone who loves building models one piece at a time.
Description: An oval emblem with a green border enclosing a white background. At the top, red text reads "FROG RACING" and smaller black text reads "TEAM". A cartoon green frog is centered, peeking out from stylized blue waves. Below the frog are two white stars on red backgrounds and two red stars. Along the bottom, white text reads "TAMIYA PLASTIC MODEL CO.".
Description: If you are of a certain age, The Red Baron needs no introduction or explanation. If not, well, we're not talking about Baron von Richthofen, the renowned German World War I pilot. It was the '60s and over the top hot rods were all the rage. Looking for a follow-up to their very successful 'Beer Wagon' plastic model kit, Monogram's designer found it in a World War I German army helmet. Again, if you were around back then, it's not as weird as it sounds. German helmets were adopted as a sign of rebellion by bikers, surfers, and other cultural outlaws, so it made sense to build a hot rod model around one. Of course, like with the 'Beer Wagon' kit, a real-world version would materialize and just like the model, it too was an instant hit.
