Tamiya Lunch Box EVO life-size: the 1/1 that started at Shizuoka

Tamiya surprised visitors at the 64th Shizuoka Hobby Show (13–17 May 2026) with something few expected on the stand: a life-size Lunch Box EVO — a real vehicle inspired by one of its RC icons.

This is not a 1/10 kit or a new racing release: it is brand promotion that brings the classic Lunch Box look to full scale, built by Garage Aichi, and it drew huge attention from fans at the show.
