Tamiya1/10 382 Posted October 23, 2014 I would invest it until the release of the Blazer, and by that time the return maybe enough to cover the purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mad Ax 9147 Posted October 23, 2014 Probably some kind of big-wheel basher. The latest Emaxx, or whatever the current model is. Tamiyas are great and everything, but I haven't actually run an RC car in longer than I can remember; I just want something that I can throw out of the van, stick in a battery and run without worrying about breaking things, getting it stuck in the mud, overheating the motor due to restricted gearing options, any other Tamiya drawback you can find... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quandry 378 Posted October 23, 2014 Just putting this here to push myself in to dropping the cash even faster... LOL 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadInventor 3884 Posted October 23, 2014 Sit on it and wait for Tamiya to release a 1/10 6x6 truck with a 3 speed in it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IBIFTKH 1369 Posted October 23, 2014 Another 'hold onto it until Tamiya release...' In my case, Willy's Wheeler (even if it's on the WR-02 chassis). With a little interest it would probably be enough for 2 kits I wonder who'll be waiting longest; Tamiya 1/10, MadInventor or me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markbt73 5290 Posted October 23, 2014 One of the TT02 rally cars, and seats and carpet for my 1:1 Mazda Miata. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mongoose1983 3335 Posted October 23, 2014 BULLHEAD + a set of bearings. And you can still save some money to date some hot broad 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dualdigger 62 Posted October 23, 2014 That equates to $540 cad. I would buy a Rc4wd trailfinder2, but the question does make me wonder what Tamiya I'd like next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novastar 241 Posted October 24, 2014 For around 300 pounds ($550 AUD) I would either vastly modify my Superclod or if I bought a kit it would be an immaculate or NIB Nissan King Cab with change for extras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berman 5315 Posted October 24, 2014 Sit on it and wait for Tamiya to release a 1/10 6x6 truck with a 3 speed in it Enter skeletal picture of Martin with cobwebs :lol: ...And you can still save some money to date some hot broad Is she a kit or rtr? You might have to assemble her (with bearings!) before the date Myself: Put it towards a NIB chevy clod to store away. Otherwise maybe a King Tiger from Stella, or a King Hauler or Scania. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiya1/10 382 Posted October 24, 2014 I wonder who'll be waiting longest; Tamiya 1/10, MadInventor or me? Thats a good call. my wish and Madinventor are both very doable. With a bit of mod to the re-release 3spd chassis, the Blazer could be release and the 6X6, just add a front tranny to 1:14 truck and cover it with a WWII army truck or a modern version and you have a 6X6.

TwistedxSlayer 1290 Posted October 26, 2014 Oooooo. I think I'd be converting my tb-01 to brushless with lipos and a new charger, and with some change I'd treat her to a new body, like a 2004 Impreza :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
