Ok i'm not being picky and i'm not sure which is right but i have a picture of the first 100 Tamiya cars that Tamiya produced. Number 33 or 58033 is the Wild Willy Willy's M38 and number 35 or 58035 is the Ford C-100RM Mk 4. In the Tamiya Club car section they are numbered the other way around (WW is 35 and the Ford is 33). Not sure if this is a mistake on the Tamiya Club site or Tamiya's mistake on the photo.

Not being funny just thought i'd point it out

Wow, great observation! Also checked the pic you mean, as well as another one with all kitboxes and they have it both wrong, I guess TC is correct as its the same to old catalogues, guidebooks and think also the boxes themselfes.

Maybe not, as we dont know the origin of those 2 pictures, maybe they were made by a big japanese Tamiya collector [:0]!

Sorry to sound dumb, but can someone please post me 2 web-links (URL's) to these 2 pictures described? I'm particularly interested in the '100 Kit Boxes' photo.....

I realise the actual photos may be too big to post here on the Forum, hence me request for the web-links to them.....[:D]

I heard that the models were transposed so that it made a better photo. The wild willy would have obscured ford C-100

Yes but there is also another pic with all the kitboxes and there they are also in the wrong sequence, although there is no excuse there...

Yep Blazer Frazers site is where i downloaded it from. I never thought about the size of each car in comparison to each other i suppose the Clod and Bullhead would dwarf most tamiya models and look silly in a photo

WillyChang - thanks for the link! Doh! Of course (!) I remember Blazer Frazer's Site. I've downloaded that pic before! [:)]

But still no-one has provided a link to the 100 Kit Box photo. Where is it? Please point me in the right direction someone? [?]
