Bigwig unlikely for re release in my opinion. Its nickname (big pig) suggests a handling and weight not suitable for modern fun radio controlling :-) It also was expensive and came with a Technigold motor, which is no longer in production and would anyway make it too expensive. Looks like Tamiya want to keep the re releases cheap. I reckon Boomerang is next!

There's too many bespoke parts on the Bigwig that were not shared with other cars so I doubt very much it'll be rereleased. Loaded's right in that it wasn't a great runner. Lots of traction and goes like a missile at the top end but takes forever to get there due to it seemingly being constructed from depleted uranium and it corners like an aircraft carrier due to poxy steering.

Just wait for the Frog...!
