holiday buggy(red version)

[Shanks]

I could do with a set of those black Star dish wheels will save me having to dye a set.

[pastimesteve]

It looks good in red, but like others have pointed out, I'm not sure the decals work with this scheme.

Anyway, for those of you who have watched the video on Tamiyablog.com, WHO is that gorgeous Japanese girl in the video?

Haha, I was wondering if anyone else would comment on that. I sat through the whole thing for 2 hours to see if there was any mention of the FAV re-release (there wasn't )and if it hadn't been for the eye candy sat there it would have been 2 hours of sheer boredom. She could come round my house and play with my toys any day of the week.

Have a look at the latest video on www.tamiyablog.com, approx 31 minutes in. It's not red, it's pink!

(Dunno how to do screengrabs from ustream...over to you TWINSET. )

[Wandy]

Cheers.

Dunno what to make of this. I was liking the red in the other photo and was actually gonna get one of these but, dear me, that pink is pretty nasty.

[Falcon#5]

I like the wheels.

[thorsteenster]

I don't see what all the hoopla is about, I've always thought the Holiday Buggy was about the funkiest looking buggy I've ever seen.......

Still a shame the chassis they re-re'd it on.

The body is moulded in red according to TamiyaUSA - just as well, or the first scratch would have shown through... in BLUE!

I think I'll order those wheels... To match a Black Dyna Storm?

[taliesin]

Why not put black wheels on the blue buggy, and those hideous yellow ones on the red buggy? It would make more sense wouldn't it?

[Swarm]

Why RED (which looks pink) its not even like the decals go with it yellow,blue...someone at T headquarters is colour blind .

Its a hideous re-release ,makes me wonder if they were testing the waters by releasing this buggy like this and not true to the original.

Its alright if you have a daughter who plays with Barbie dolls and wanted a Red/Pink car to drive Barbie and Ken around in.

I showed my daughter and she said I did not like the blue one why would I like a sick red one .

EPIC FAIL !!

Pause, then 'Print Screen' button, paste into MS Paint, save as .jpg

Oi - don't knock the colour blind mate, even I don't like it

Black would been better, at least it'd fade to grey instead of pale pink

Sorry to type cast you Andy

If I squint it looks like red Ferrari

[Wandy]

What I want to know is....how did this

...turn into this?

Did they run out of red pigment or something?!

I have the blue version and I really like it, especially since it's been shown how easy it is to make it look like an original. I liked the look of the red one but the pink is just nasty.

[WW-nut]

Fret not, it's probably even the same car. Just looks pink becuase it's a bad photo from the show.

Oh, just checked Tamiyablog and indeed it's -------> http://tamiyablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2...amiya_84212.jpg Orange??????

[TWINSET]

It's probably down to poor lighting/camera settings - that'd wash-out the red and the blacks and shadows are over-exposed to a fair degree too

The catalogue image is the one to look at, then the movie version once it's been in the sun a few days

[Swarm]

Its probably a new shade of Red

Andy, there's a new photo of it on Tamiyablog. The link in my previous post is v.slow to load, easier just to look at their home page and have a look http://www.tamiyablog.com It's a much better quality image than they previously had.

[TWINSET]

I couldn't get that original link to work at all, so was just going by the video still.

The orange doesn't look too bad, the pink's a no-go though

Mind you, I just spent ten minutes on the phone trying to describe a T-Shirt colour to a bloke, and ending up deciding it was a cross between tarmac and roofing felt

[pikachoo-75]

If it does turn out to be pink perhaps it will have a "bonus item" included?

the item will be a 1/10th cloth cravat for the cowboy driver to wear,thus completeing the "butch (blue)and fem(pink)" 2pc Brokeback mountain collectors set.

[Falcon#5]

Anyone know when the wheels will be available for sale?

[Wandy]

So from red to pink to orange. Maybe they should have called it the Harlequin Buggy?

Thanks to the nuances of regional slang, I have no idea if you like it or not
