I love how Tamiya observe the world of human endeavour to recreate machines faithfully and playfully, which enables me to join in with their celebration and feel good about that aspect of being a human. Oh and sniffing the tyres of course.

I was looking for the blue version whilst the red one was still available about 4 years ago, to no avail. It must be a rare thing indeed & I’ve still never seen one for sale!

What mountain is that?

These are fun! If a bit expensive

Ooh I like the sound of those, with a matching bag?

Good one! The Fighter Buggy Memorial is a black edition in all but name (& wheels!)

Me too & the black edition Lunchbox, Midnight Pumpkin, Super Clodbuster… any others I missed?

NiB on ebay: SOLD TXT-1 SOLD The BigWig 2017 SOLD Zahhak SOME SOLD hop ups

My kids did the crasher thing with CW01 & was a laugh - cheap n easy to fix

Swapped red for chrome on this KBF

Yeah I am in to it, Tamiya make it easy! Bush Devil body & Landfreeder chrome with Blackfoot stickers on MF01X with a rally cockpit

Next up: £SOLD Bullhead £SOLD Jun Watanabe Hornet £ebay vintage Wild One

I got my rally beetle & dual rider out of storage to sell but I can’t bring myself to do it. Dude! Now dreaming about turning the MF01X in to a Ford Ranger & using the portals from @Nikko85 & here it is, without the portals:

I’ve paid over the odds for 2nd hand nib kits & then a day later the rerererelease was announced 🤣 sometimes my desire to buy stuff overrides my sense of outrage at overpriced things!
