Tamiya Price Increase: saw a notice from Tamiya USA that there will be an across the board increase in prices starting August 1, 2012. It stated that the price increase will affect everything that Tamiya sells in the US and everyone that sells their products. At this point the increase is expected to be about 5-10%.
Reason listed: “Due to circumstances beyond our control”. So to read between the lines, it’s probable fair to say the increases are do to either shipping costs to the US and or raw materials.
