Tamiyastef 1967 Posted March 8, 2022 Another Tamico box. Some extra springs for my turbo optima build I wanna start (although I'm still missing the blue spur and universals) and a 33T pinion (70% reduction!) Also some tires for my TA-03RS and a new HCT and Sand Scorcher driver for future projects. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silvertriple 3557 Posted March 9, 2022 I got some friends on other forums impatient to know about N2 and N3 :-) so I have to post about that... So this morning, I got a first delivery at home. In the two boxes there was : 1. In the first box there was a Marui Ninja coming from Germany . Driver and MSC missing, Body is bad state but chassis seems in good condition. The rear gearbox have an issue, but that doesn't bother me too much. I'll have to check that out. The tires are in a good condition. (I don't repost the picture, you already seen it). 2. In the second box there was a Marui Shogun coming from Romania : more work required to complete it, and some missing parts. Rear wheels and tires in good condition, and broken rims in front. But hey, it's the most rare of the Marui cars : a Shogun warrior. That should keep me busy for some time (after my other in progress projects). I'll probably open one single thread for the two cars are they are sharing a lot together. Later on I had to fetch a box to one the relay nearby. It was coming from France. On guy asked me for an estimation few weeks back, looking at the photos I gave him an honest estimation. He asked me if I was interested : I could not say I was not, but I told him : it's a pity, I like it, I would be ready to offer this price, but not before beginning of March. That was early February... He told me he would wait for me to be ready, and later people confirmed my estimation on the thread the guy was asking what was the car... He asked me two weeks later if I was still interested, and I firmly tell yes I am. I bought it last Saturday. It arrived today... And it's... Another Marui warrior. My favorite. A Samurai Some marks of use, but overall in good state, requiring a cleaning, and at least the tires are in good shape... one of the rim has lost its chrome paint, but it's still nice... And yes, the 3 Marui Warriors arrived within the same day... I may have thought about an Optima Mid, later on this year, but that idea is gone for the moment :-) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeeWings 2830 Posted March 10, 2022 Nice little package from RCMart (and it arrived super quickly too). "Chrome" wheels for my Wild One rebuild, Pinion and Bumper for my Hotshot rebuild, R31 Rims for the spare slicks I have somewhere and a couple of driver kits because I haven't got any and wanted to see what they were like for a couple of custom build I'm currently doing. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ziddan 947 Posted March 10, 2022 Today the postman brought me a Sand Scorcher body kit that i will making parts for to go onto my tt02b. A tentatively planned bit for it is to leave the sun roof open and make a FPV camera holder that will snap in for an easily removable drivers point view, hopefully there is enough vertical space for it, i think it should be fine tho as the stock bodies for tt02b arent very tall so with the extra height of the SS shell room ought to be plentiful. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeeWings 2830 Posted March 10, 2022 This arrived today. I really have to stop buying old RCs but how could I say no. The postage actually cost more than the truck... It's actually not in quite as good condition as it might look in this picture which is fine as I intend to do some customisation and try to fit it on to a new chassis. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonathon Gillham 4606 Posted March 11, 2022 Not Tamiya, but a couple of volantexrc 791-1 65cm rc yachts. I live a few hundred metres to a harbour (manukau harbour for kiwis out there) and a friend down the road has been talking about rc yachts for a few years, so we got these. Should be fun 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
