Hi guys, picked up a Grand Hauler kit today (good deal and couldnt resist it), I have a MFC01 and 4 channel Radio organised thru Stella.. The question is .. what other accessories should I be looking at? Alloy wheels..etc etc.. Thanks Sean

thanks for that, I have sent them a message.

Hi, does anyone have a contact to get some custom decals printed locally? Thanks

Thanks Guys, seems this going to be a hard find. Will keep on the hunt.

Hey guys in the middle of restoring my Gr.B and got stuck sourcing helmets.. do the 1:10 heads work ok? Cheers
-
Look forward to that, I have a real soft spot for the Marui kits... my first car was a Galaxy.. but soon learnt about the weak gears and speed control. Keep it on topic, here is what I have done today. stripped,cleaned and put back together with fresh grease and damper oil on my latest project Gr.B Found a few parts I need to replace and have a replacement body ordered as the one that came with the car isn't in the best shape.

broken chassis, what to repair with?
mrmantis replied to mrmantis's topic in Vintage Tamiya Discussion
Thanks Thommo, any ideas where to source it? Should I repair it like a Fibreglass repair..as in grind tapers onto the joins to increase the surface area? Havent done much with plastics as you can probably tell -

Hey Guys Stripping down my newest project (Gr B Celica) I found this section was screwed on but broken.. Whats the best product to glue this back on with?
-
Hi, just picked up a nice example of GR B,but the body has some damage and isn't box art. So chasing a body and decals if anyone can point me in the right direction. Sorry should have put a WTB in topic heading.

Update, I had a set of Dampers arrive the other day for this build. I have some more alloy parts coming, but not here yet. So whilst waiting I did some more on the body and painted the wheels. Will get some better shots in day light Tomorrow. Cheers

Got a TT-01 Porsche and a TB-03 R35 Ye they all run ... but get more enjoyment out of building and modifying them. You can say that again
-
Ye came out really well, pic could be better... its painted.
-
They aren't a bad kit for the money, little too much plastic personally which is why I have ordered some hop-ups. but all around a pretty simple kit to screw together.

Whilst I have been mainly into Re-Releases since getting back into RC, I couldn't resist this kit. I have paused building the chassis now, as I have ordered some Alloy Parts to Bling the chassis up...

After xmas I started to look online at what was new on the RC Kit World, and I may have caught the bug again. When I was much younger I had numerous rc models, and was building kits for a large hobby shop/ toy shop near Sydney. Anyway got a bit nostalgic and now wish I managed to hang on to some of my old toys. Anyway here a few of the new models I have built over the last couple of months. Have a couple more under construction that will be joining them shortly. Cheers

Hi Chris, did the same thing, ordered a fox with a hot shot repo...and spent a rainy sunday building the fox.. Good fun reliving our youth.
