You can create a new post/thread in the forum section "sales, trades & wanted"?

https://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?/forum/13-sales-trades-wanted/

And then you can title your post "Wanted - a Nichimo thing" or similar

I still maintain it's a fix - let's take a look at their usernames:

Re-Bugged

netsmithUK

The second letter of each name is an 'e' and one has 9 characters while the other has 10. Coincidence???!!! :huh:

You must feeling the effects of isolation and over thinking things, also the fact one of us has hair and one doesn’t is a bit of a flaw in your theory 😂

Good theory (but the actual chances of winning actually relate to your proximity to 5g masts)

I've never entered as I thought it would be boring me winning every time ;)

Me thinks thee doth protesteth too much! All this does is make me think you are trying to throw us off the scent!!

5G masts have already been linked to coronavirus and international security breaches - so of course you will try and double bluff us by saying that they are actually the way to win a prize!!

And as for the hair - how do we know that isn't a wig???!!! :huh:

You've got to get up pretty early in the morning to get one past me, and being 10 hours ahead won't work....I've set my pc clock to Japanese time to counter that!!!

And don't even get me started on the fact one of you has "net" and the other "bugged" in your user names!

Clandestine anyone??!!!

Second colour down, can you tell what it is yet? 

Bodyshell is extremely rare, probably not doing it justice!

@graemevw - wow! Just...wow!

Had the old Black & Decker workbench our for a small DIY job this morning so stole a couple of minutes to try making some top links for my Hornet.

Unfortunately, I don’t appear to have the correct hardware in my stash to mount the damper brackets so this build will go back on pause until I work out what I need and put an order in 😔.

Call it quarantine impulsiveness but today alone I have ordered a Novafox from Tamico that I won't see until shipping is allowed from EU to USA via DHL.  I also just backordered a Subaru Impeza Monte Carlo '99 kit (tt02) from tower along with the correct spray paint color, a futaba servo and ball bearing kit.  Big Subaru lover as I've owned 5 of them and instead of getting a frog based Brat, I thought the Impreza might be a nice change to get a rally/road car instead of a buggy/truck.

Good choice on the Novafox. They're hard to find at a reasonable price but Tamico had them for good price. I just got mine delivered today, excited to build.

My darling pet rats escaped and, alongside many other things had a chew on a sensor cable and my radio's wheel. So I printed a new hub and used a rally tire. I think it's rather a funky upgrade.

Started my Rising Fighter charity build. Stock build with bearings. Will find some radio gear and then stick it on eBay for Blood Bikes. With the current situation they have no opportunity to fund raise and they do a great job. Build thread pending admin approval.

Had a bit of a Tamiya day.

Dad ran his Holiday buggy, hard as usual.

I maidened the (very unfinished) Quattro, two issues, first being my tyres aren't glued on (purposely) and I had some severe signal issues, so that STX2 radio is now in the bin and will be replaced with my trusty DX4C when I work out how many channels I will need.

Loving the car though :D

Nearly finished my Hornet restoration. 

Just need to finish off the spot lamps.

Edit: And driver figure. 

The car is original apart from, new wheels, tyres, body and rere decals.

Hornet was my first proper RC, so this restoration is quite special. It will be a runner and it will bring me a lot of joy.
