Sumimasen 24 Posted April 16, 2014 As the topic says, describe your ultimate re-re! As this is purely hypothetical, let your imagination on what is involved or included run wild! I'll start: Dyna Storm (technically a re-re-re!). I would love to have a Dyna Storm that's been given the Avante 2011 treatment: Updated and reinforced diff parts Modern assembly type CVD driveshafts Carbon chassis plates and shock towers Updated Sleeved Dampers (like the re-re Hi-Caps). Also, slightly less likely specs: Plastic parts moulded out of reinforced resin Aluminium TRF Style rear wishbone hangers Classic style Star Dish wheels resized to 2.2" TRF style hex head screws Brushless 'Acto Power Pink' style motor (9.5t) This would be my ultimate re-re buggy! The Top Force would also be pretty epic if given the same treatment. It may be too close to an Evo, but I'd take it all the same! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillyChang 1814 Posted April 16, 2014 Ultimate Tamilya re-re will always be Old #1. A proper authentic pan chassis original 934... not the TamtechGear or the Anniversary 1/10. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grastens 2795 Posted April 16, 2014 Now that 3-speed models have been re-released, I am not sure I could qualify a favourite re-release on complexity. But for the sheer insanity, I would love to see the Striker re-released, and then another version with upgrades such as: - TRF dampers - a metal universal joint set or even a CV joint set - double-wishbone front suspension - larger polycarbonate rear wing - either an updated reinforced lower chassis mold, or a separate metal brace - a polycarbonate top shell - front and/or rear anti-roll bars We shall call it... drivable! But since that all appears unlikely, it looks like I will have a project on my hands... Other than that, probably the return of the classic F2 cars on a derivative of the F104 or even the TRF101. These would therefore be built much like the modern F1 cars that Tamiya has produced. However, I think I would like what WillyChang suggested with the Porsche 934 and see a hard-core re-release of a vintage model - metal chassis plates and everything! It would understandably be very limited production, and would do more to serve as a tribute to the very first cars as opposed to as an actual performer. Sure; collectors will tear up, but not too many of them if production numbers are very limited. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Percymon 2184 Posted April 16, 2014 Blazing Blazer - so much less static looking then the other three speeds, looks like it moving when it's sat on a shelf. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wandy 1527 Posted April 16, 2014 Ultimate Tamilya re-re will always be Old #1. A proper authentic pan chassis original 934... not the TamtechGear or the Anniversary 1/10. Only got to wait another two years for that to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wandy 1527 Posted April 16, 2014 I agree with Willy though, the ultimate "Holy Grail" is now 58001, brought back in completely original form. And all joking aside, I DO think it will happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennyMo 3526 Posted April 16, 2014 For me they have already done it (in 2010) - the Sand Scorcher... however, I'd like to see the 959... albeit with a hard body - that would be sweet! Jx 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiya1/10 382 Posted April 16, 2014 Blazing Blazer - so much less static looking then the other three speeds, looks like it moving when it's sat on a shelf.. AGREE. The Blazer is my only choice, others are nice but ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theibault 1535 Posted April 16, 2014 The Porsche 959. I absolutely love that car. I can't bring myself to buy a used one at an outrageous price just because I like to run my cars, and I wouldn't dare run an old 959 due to the high cost of repairs that would eventually be needed. Every year I hope against hope for a re-re so I can buy one or three of these lol. I have really been enjoying running my Carisma 959, but it's not the old T Porschy I used to have so much fun with. For the love of all that is good in this world, Tamiya, please re-re this car!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klausen 1197 Posted April 16, 2014 +1 on the 959 or Celica. I think they would sell like crazy, so bet they will be rere'd at some point. An original Monster Beetle would be nice as well, and very easy for Mr. T to rere. But one thing I still like to see rere'd is the old motors. Technigold, Tecnipower, Technituned and so on. But I will be quite surprised if that ever happens 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeekelemental 528 Posted April 16, 2014 +2 on the 959 or Celica! Gosh Mr. T do you need a petition on-line to decide! ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fruitfly01 596 Posted April 16, 2014 I will sound like a scratched record, but Madcap or Astute buggies. If Tamiya can have at least three different 4WD buggies on the go, I think another 2WD could survive alongside the more modern offerings right now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IBIFTKH 1369 Posted April 16, 2014 +1 for the Super Champ. And of course I want a Willy's Wheeler. The original chassis would be fabulous but a WR-02 would be acceptable and cheaper too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beefmuffin 1156 Posted April 16, 2014 I agree with Willy though, the ultimate "Holy Grail" is now 58001, brought back in completely original form. And all joking aside, I DO think it will happen. Someone on ebay bought a NIB partially build 58001 the other day for $75 BIN. I clicked as soon as I saw, but that sucker was gonnnne. http://www.ebay.com/itm/TAMIYA-Porsche-Turbo-RSR-TYPE-934-Made-in-Japan-1-12-Scale-RARE-/141255487184 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pizzachaude 130 Posted April 17, 2014 Another +1 for the 959! Its the only way I can get this wreck back on the road, OMG those parts are just way out of my budget Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cplus 94 Posted April 17, 2014 I want a Marui Big Bear! Not a tamiya obviously but was my first decent RC. So much fun pulling wheelies down the street with that thing and it definitely took a beating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RS2RSR 17 Posted April 19, 2014 As it was my first rc car, a Cheetah with a proper 4wd chassis and maybe the Tlt Wheels/tires I will also get the 959 when they rerelease it and also the Blazer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
