Truck Norris 2237 Posted January 23, 2017 1 hour ago, Mokei Kagaku said: 58645 Subaru WRX STI 24h Nürburgring (TT-02 chassis) I spotted this in the recently released free Beginner's Guide PDF: At first I thought it was a new WRX, but looking closer it appears to be the Evo X shell (note the moulded in number plate and large door mirrors) with Subaru stickers. The livery matches the 24h car listed above though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have one, but it's good to know that there are more of them on their way. They were getting a bit thin on the ground. Now I hope that they also re-re the Wrangler, gives people a couple of more options for body sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have had two Pajeros and regretted selling them both. Would love to see the black Grasshopper again but the green was cool and I missed that too. Glad to see the xv01 with another (re)release. Everything I have read on that chassis makes it sound phenomenal so glad to see continued support. Matte High Lift parts should be a cheap upgrade. Just glad to see something new for those trucks. Wonder what the upgraded steering for the TT02 looks like. I always hated that the aluminum steering comes up to like half the price of a kit on those cars.

Supercoolnothing 721 Posted January 23, 2017 That's great news about the pajero, with any luck that means that I can nab a shell for my cc-01. A candy green grasshopper sounds like a good addition to my collection as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berman 5315 Posted January 23, 2017 Good to see the Pajero making a come back. Although just before I saw this post I bought a Bronco shell for my CC-01 (which I will sell afterwards anyway). White wheels for the tractor trucks is ok would be great for custom euro scanias and the like. But they need to offer the wide (super single) bearing wheels in chrome as a separate upgrade for the fronts. Right now you need to either swap all your wheels to the Matte finish and buy the matte ones, or try to find the reefer rears, or Merc gigaspace fronts. All the other chrome wheels are available to purchase as a pair... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, so if I read that right, Tamiya are re-releasing something you can still buy? 84331 is the original? it's still available for 99 euros on Tamico. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not really. 84331 was a limited release 5 years ago, and it was sold out in Japan a long time ago. That a shop (or several shops) in the export market still has it as old stock doesn't mean that it's available from Tamiya, thus the re-release with a new item number now in 2017.

Blista 1519 Posted January 24, 2017 21 hours ago, Mokei Kagaku said: 47349 XV-01 Chassis Kit Long Damper Spec I was quietly hoping for a '93 Celica XV01, but this is interesting. Should be cheap enough to order from overseas and avoid customs charges too. I was going to do a tarmac rally car but it'd be a waste to not take advantage of the long damper spec, I think it might be time to order a body shell for an autumn XV01 gravel rally project. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nitomor 2122 Posted January 24, 2017 I'm not sure how I feel about re-re-releases. It undermines the initial launch on the one hand (and values) but on the other hand, good that people can still get them if there's demand. No different to the Re-re's then lol I always fancied a metal top Pajero so that may find it's way into my fleet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raman36 1656 Posted January 29, 2017 I'm underwhelmed by the release list for Nuremberg. The new releases are too goofy for my taste. At this point I need an epic car like the 959, otherwise my wallet will remain shut. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
