IBIFTKH 1369 Posted August 27, 2015 Could be fun... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterbok 1282 Posted August 27, 2015 maybe something like this, an upscaled mini4wd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fruitfly01 596 Posted August 27, 2015 A GF01 with Clod sized wheels would be a fun animal to play with. The last dump truck was a scale model, lets hope this is something outrageous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dualdigger 62 Posted August 27, 2015 I like that, I was wondering when Tamiya was going to release a new variant of the gf-01 and this looks like a winner. I think my son will be getting one of these for Xmas provided it's released by then 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiyabigstuff 832 Posted August 27, 2015 Might have to get one of these to go with my Mammoth Dump Truck ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nitomor 2122 Posted August 27, 2015 Another winner from Tamiya I think! I bet these will sell in numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisRx718 4470 Posted August 27, 2015 Looks great in that pic above - is that a hardbody? Can't go far wrong with a dump truck toy/rc, will appeal to a lot of audiences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterbok 1282 Posted August 27, 2015 Mmm, no driver, no Willy 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee1980 71 Posted August 27, 2015 Awesome darn another one to get, nearly got gf-01 but this would be much cooler hehe! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kontemax 1725 Posted August 27, 2015 Have you seen the tires? They are from QD Monster Beetle, they are very rare, they was very rare. And they perfectly fit on Lunchbox rims. Max 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nitomor 2122 Posted August 27, 2015 They've been available for a while. The WR02 soft spikes, I have them on my brushless Hornet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nitomor 2122 Posted August 27, 2015 1/24th Willy? The perfect Willy for this rig... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mokei Kagaku 2706 Posted August 27, 2015 Mmm, no driver, no Willy 1/26th scale? At least 1/24th scale drivers should fit it... Finally a reason to buy an 120 turn motor as well. Dorvack. Considering that the Jug-based Mammoth is 1/20 scale, I'd think a quite similar GF-01 based model would be roughly 1/30-40 scale. If so, the driver from the Wild Willy Jr. should be quite suitable!

mr crispy 2293 Posted August 27, 2015 Hey at least it doesn't have a flippin stoner bear driving it... not yet anyway 😳 Can't help thinking it ain't going to survive the crashes and roll overs that come with a Wheelie chassis as well as the rest of the range. I wonder if the rear is seperate and could be easily made to tip? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mad Ax 9313 Posted August 27, 2015 Mmm, no driver, no Willy you don't need a willy to have a heavy dump 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grastens 2795 Posted August 27, 2015 This is going to be the best kind of insanity! Even if Willy does not appear and Kumamon does! Really looking forward to the first pictures - and the extra space in my wallet when it finally does arrive Edit: It looks so much like the Mammoth Dump Truck that I did not notice the first pictures!

shenlonco 1156 Posted August 27, 2015 don't think willy will be put in this model as it looks like they did it to look more scale and the window driver area is so small they may not even put a driver in it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mheald 351 Posted August 27, 2015 Aw man, I LOVE my GF-01, such a silly little thing that is sooooo much fun. Might have to grab 3 of these, one for me and one each for the boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TWINSET 1793 Posted August 27, 2015 They coulda spun it 180 and stuck a driver in it; 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
