As i could find any more Pix from Twin Messe, besides those on Tamiyablog.com, i went hunting.

Follow the link to Tamiya.ca - http://www.tamiya.ca/

I'm especially dissapointed in the Neo-Falcon, but it does make sense to get the kids from Mini 4wd up to full RC.

Weird to see that after tinkering with the Hotshot, they're realeasing the Fire Dragon excatly as it was first time round! :)

Looks like i'm still waiting for that Race spec 2wd car, on the plus side , it migt be able to a buy a 2.4ghz control set now that i can't se a kit i want to buy. :(

TRF 501X a finger in one eye. You must be a genius to design a so ugly body. Not for all.

DURGA too much plastic. A non sense if you'll equip all optionals.

NEO FALCON no comment.

FIRE DRAGON ugly exactly as 20 years ago but better than these new cars.

Tamiya blog just added today that there is another TA05-ifs coming out. This time it's a limited edition kit. I wonder what will be special about it?

They did, sort of. Tamiya rereleased the Wheeler body kit at one of their summer fairs, designed to fit on the Wild Willy 2 using wheels and tyres from the Tamiya Voltec Fighter.

A couple of examples

Thanks Terry,

I actually perfer lexan body over plastic version. It is cheaper were I can get many of them at the same time differeciate from the old classic collector item.

The Neo-Falcon looks good save the hideous blue windows, but why did Mr. T decide to rerelease the Fire Dragon of all cars, while we wait with baited breath for a Monster Beetle or Wild One!

Totally agree with you! Even if the Fire Dragon isn't so bad after all, it isn't a piece of tamiya 's history. Surely in Japan, just like the thunder shot, it has its own supporters but...

By the way, i'm optimistic about the next batch of the re-release and sure that we'll see again the Monster Beetle (just my sensation).

That Neo Falcon looks like the old Cox Bandito. And that's not a compliment.

I had a Bandito...

Again, no Competitive 2WD buggy!! Just some rehash stuff as usual..
