Its major competitor in the RC automobile market is Tamiya. Kyosho has avoided direct competition against Tamiya in the hobby grade RC cars market since the 80s and 90s, where Tamiya was most active, focusing instead on designing professional 1/8 scale racing buggies, Mini-Z series, and RC helicopters.
By the end of the 1980s, the buggy class single-handedly turned the radio-controlled car market into a multimillion-dollar business [53] but in 1990, Tamiya, a market leader in off-road cars; shifted their attention toward on-road cars [54] when in 1991, they adapted their Manta Ray's DF-01 [55] chassis to a Nissan Skyline GT-R NISMO bodyshell.
Kyosho first introduced the Mini-Z in 1999, touted as "The RC industry's first palm-top size RC car". [4] The first 3 cars were Subaru WRX, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI and Nissan Skyline GTR. Cars were on a MR-01 chassis. The formula racer F1 came next. The F1 is larger than a Mini-Z. Next, the Monster, then the Overland.
Only the latter two had greater success at the A-mains with Tamiya achieving 2nd by Lee Martin in 2013 [39] and Scott Montgomery's 8th for Traxxas in 1991, both in 2WD. At the 1989 Worlds , it was claimed by Radio Control Car Action that virtually every manufacturers, who had a 1:10 buggy on the market, was represented.
Tamiya entered the 1/72 market rather late by releasing its first kit in 1993 (see kit 60701). [9] However, this was a reboxed version of Italeri's F-16 and it would take until 2014 to design their own version of this jet (see kit 60786). Tamiya quickly got a large product line in this scale by reboxing more than 30 Italeri kits.
