Hello everyone, looks promising here

[william]

So glad that Tamiya is having a site dedicated to the 3 speeds. :Tamiya1:
I own a few myself.
1 blazing blazer
1 bruiser
2 high-lifts

[McFig]

I agree. The site looks great. Looking forward to some great info. :yourock:

[offroadford4x4]

Ya, the site looks great so far!

I myself don't own a 3spd yet, but I want to. At some point I hope to get a king hauler and a highlift.

[Ragnarok]

LOOK HOW LOUD I HAVE TO YELL!!!

I mean…howdy.

[Larrio]

Hello and welcome to the site!!


:welcomeani:

[J2D]

Nice site, good to know Tamiya is showing a strong support for the High Lift. Hopefully this will mean further developements.

[Larrio]

I believe with enough positive support for this site, future developments are a very likely possibility! :Tamiya1:

[mymonsterbeetleisbroken]

yea this site looks pretty sweet!

[offroadford4x4]

So what do yall mean by "future developments"? as in more kits containing the 3speed? Or maybe even the development of say a 5 or 6speed? (what kind of controller would ya use for that??!! lol)


More 3spped trucks would be cool though.


And even though I'm a Ford guy, I'd like to see the High Lift chassis released with the Clod body. It'd definitly be a warm welcome with Chevy fans.

[igbandy]

Hi people, I am igbandy and I currently own 1 3 speed a high lift.


I wish everyone well on this site and that the big :Tamiya1: will do this site and us all proud :D

[twisty]

Hello from the UK,
nice, clean and uncluttered look to the site.
I hope it turns out to be a great Tamiya 3speed resource.
Best of luck with it.
:dance:

[4wdmt]

I'm IN!!! A fellow 3 speed member from Canada! I own a bruiser. Hopefully, a new Hilux hilift. I'm excited, another added favorites on my list.

BTW, love the smilies :first:.

[JChung]

Hi everyone! 4wdmt told me to join. I am an owner of the F350 Hi-Lift and looking forward to the Hilux Hi-Lift as well! Glad my favourite smilie is here:Tamiya1:

[4wdmt]

YO J, that was fast! LOL.

Yup, this site is uber cool. Just like what they say. Uncluttered, clean and simple.

How many mods do we have? Who is who. I see familiar names.

[Badd Andy]

Hi there, great to be here. I was wondering if there is going to be a section for Hilux or Blazer owners, I know they are mostly the same as Bruisers or Mounty's but there are some differences too.

[Supreme Reign]

Will twisted my arm, so here I am.
Let's see who I know.
I see J2D and Jchung.
And there's Offroad4x4 and 4wdmt.
Oh, there's Ragnarok and William.
So many great people here already:omg:

My comment pertains to 3-speeds since it is relative to the site. I can't imagine Tamiya releasing a 5 or 6speed R/C car, but I can't say they wouldn't either. Positive feedback from this site is justification for us to tell Japan that new products of this kind (3-speed trucks) will be supported by enthusiasts.

[monster_beetle]

Hi all, was looking for a while how it was with this site. And now it's live :) So I immediately registered.
I'm on tamiyaclub also known as monster_beetle, and a scale4x4rc as Vapex.eu

[HawnMT]

Hey everybody! I see a lot of familiar names out there. Glad to be part of a brand new site with my brand new still in the box highlift. I want to know what I want to do with it so I don't end up hacking it up so I'll be reading closely before I build. Now let's test out a smilie:

:welcomeani:

AHHHHH YESSSSS!

Hello everyone! So good to be online here - Thank you Tamiya America!!!

I can't tell you all how happy I am to see this forum created. Nowhere else would be a more fitting place to become the epicenter of the Tamiya universe. My hope is that this can be THE place to go to for fast, friendly, and accurate information about Tamiya's massive line of products. Here's to the success of T3S!

About Me:

I've been obsessed with Tamiya static and RC models since I was very young (like many of us here ;) ) - Nearly thirty years now! I was an avid modeler early on and was naturally drawn to the apparent quality that Tamiya kits exhibited both inside and out. My first RC car was an ORV Mud Blaster, but I had some experience with a friends Hornet and Monster Beetle before I saved enough money to buy my own setup. Since then I've never been without a shelf full of 'projects' and 'queens'

My current collection includes many of the mid-eighties classics that I obsessed over as a kid, and many of the 90's rally and touring cars that held my attention through my adolescence. Some I've had since then, most I've collected since the online auction revolution. Yup, guilty as charged: I bought a lot of my childhood dreams as an adult. But hey, we all have to have a hobby, right?

I'm also a HUGE fan of the 3 speed trucks - My first being a Mountaineer I bought in 2003, and more recently the F-350 High Lift. (As you can imagine I'm elated about the announcement of the newest Toyota Hilux release!) My Mounty is still a work-in-progress, but the High Lift is very complete and a regular runner. Some of you may have seen it before; It's the rig that was awarded 'most realistic' by Tamiya in the Ultimate Build contest last year.

So that's my story in a nutshell - Another Tamiya-nut like the rest of ya! Glad to be here and I hope to meet some of you soon - Especially those in the Bay Area - Anyone up for a run let me know :yourock: Cheers!

[DREADY]

Great new site, and one that doesn't log me off every five minutes!

Have just entered the world of Tamiya 3 Speed's thanks to Tamiya's superb Hi-Lift and this site i'm sure will provide me with all the information i could ever need.

It's good to see some members of other forums registering, I have been a member of tamiya club fo about a year now, and im sorry to say that it's just not floating my boat any more.(sorry chris)

Just a thought for an addition to the forum board, I know we live in a very dodgy world these days but how about a For Sale/ Wanted/ Trade Section?

Other sites have them and it could be a worthy addition, I'm all for setting a post limit before you can post an add, (to aid security) and stop unwanted scammers.

Having looked around the forum and cant see a section, point me in the right direction if there already is one.

just my two pennies worth.

Regards

Dready

Positive feedback from this site is justification for us to tell Japan that new products of this kind (3-speed trucks) will be supported by enthusiasts.I'm glad to see that Tamiya USA is atleast listening to those of us who really want more trucks like the High Lift. In fact the web site that I co-own is only in existence due to the fact that Tamiya produced RC cars like the CC01, TLT and High Lift. Without those basic trucks http://www.scale4x4rc.us wouldn't exist. Scale 4x4 R/C is a direct product of a small niche (but growing) of R/C guys who like that idea of an R/C truck looking realistic and not cartoonish. With products like the CC01 (discontinued????), TLT (discontinued?????) and the High Lift, we've been able to satisfy our needs for realistic R/C vehicles!
:yourock:Tamiya USA.

[shodog]

I also glad that Tamiya is taking notice of its three speed line up. I hope this inspires them to come out with more three speed related products

Well, now that its official:
http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=58397

See, didn't I tell you that positive feedback would end up in more product? :LOL:

TLT-1 kit is discontinued but parts are still readily available. I don't believe the CC-01 is completely dead yet (we will post updates from Japan if any new kits are released).

Thanks! Neat site btw.

[william]

I believe this release is going to be bigger than the F350 because of the body heritage. :Tamiya1:

[Larrio]

It would be interesting to see how it fairs against the F350

[McFig]

I know I will be getting a body at the very least as soon as I can.

[kte]

:yourock::first:

Hi all, nice site.

Just wish theres gonna be section for the trainy alone with modification and such as not just the truck.

3 speed rocks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[J2D]

It would be interesting to see how it fairs against the F350You'll probably see a lot of people buying the body sets.

[Larrio]

You'll probably see a lot of people buying the body sets.

I'll make a note of that when we make the order. Don't want to disappoint too many people!

[CarKing]

Just wanted to introduce myself and say that I am glad to see how well this site has already been received. Hopefully everyone will be able to find something about the site that suits what they have been looking for.:Tamiya1:

[ararmen]

Glad to see that Tamiya put a site up for all of us that share the same interest in three speed models. I see some very experienced modelers have joined. Great!!! They have a lot of knowledge to impart to the rest of us. Site looks great, now let's fill it up.

[T-Dubb]

Just got my first tamiya 3 speed high lift glad to see this awesome site starting up.

[twisted]
