Tamico has it priced at € 305,03 including 21% VAT: - Tamiya 58715 BBX Buggy BB-01 Bausatz (tamico.de) EDIT: In Germany including 19% VAT that would be just under the € 300,- mark. The 21% VAT is for us Dutchies. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twinfan 1252 Posted February 1, 2023 Interesting that the box art has a brushless motor - is that a first for Tamiya? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mokei Kagaku 2706 Posted February 1, 2023 I have put it on my "wishlist" and will get one, but I think it's looks a bit dull and cheap. It's kind of like a mix of Scorpion, HPI 5B, Wild One, Falcon and Losi SCB. Nothing really new, but that can possibly not be exptected anymore? Apparently driver figure recirculated from The Fox. Nasty chrome on the wheels, which will come off immediately when I get the model. Also, with rear trailing arms, I wish Tamiya had gone for double front trailing arms too, but double wishbones up front in combination with rear trailing arms is authentic too, albeit places the model in the `90's and not '70's/80's like the SRB. With a wheelbase of 283mm, Tamiya really needs to make a new VW Bug (baja bug) body for the chassis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kol__ 3377 Posted February 1, 2023 It does look decent, I could well be tempted, more than I was by the TD models anyway. Really good to see bearings😯 and UJ's are included too👍 What's up with he name though? Where is the name?😂 Tamiya always has a cool name yeah? Now it's just three letters...

Kol__ 3377 Posted February 1, 2023 The more I look at this the more I like it... The multi panel body work is cool, I could see this one being sort of hot rodded😎 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B.RAD 240 Posted February 1, 2023 I should add, I bought from the Tamico link shared on this thread, and quickly because the €252 price was too good to miss. Especially as I've just had an email from Jadlam at £360! 😱 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeeWings 2830 Posted February 1, 2023 I can’t stop looking at it! In my opinion it totally puts the kyosho dirt master aesthetic in the shade. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
