Do you have some infos on these small small kits?

Hi,
These models were a combined promotion between Georgia and Tamiya. Georgia is a Coca-Cola trademark for canned, ready-to-serve coffee. (available in Bahrain, India and Japan)

There were 11 models, where the secret model is the Avante.
The series was introduced before Tamiya started the latest wave of reissues (2005) and many regard these coffee-can-models as hints from Tamiya for what were to come. All these mini-models have a reissue counterpart, except the Astute. (which may still be reissued...)

In my mind, the coffee-can-models and the reissue models just reflect the same thing, the most popular RC models made by Tamiya.
