A number of months have passed and I have a few updates to share.

I added some of the white 84347 CVA dampers...

I broke a front knuckle running in cold weather, so I replaced them with some good old Team CRP parts.  I hope these hold up better...

I also managed to crack a rear hub, so I opted for an alloy version...

Obligatory alloy body mounts...

I mentioned earlier that the Crawler Innovations foams were too stiff.  Someone on this forum ( @toyolien perhaps?) recommended these Schumacher foams, and they feel much more like what I'm looking for.  Thanks for the tip!

I got excited when I seen those shocks.... but just like the 50520’s there discontinued.

Awesome build. I love the color too.

It's too bad those white and yellow versions were such a seemingly limited run.  I picked up a set of each when they were released, but haven't seen many since.

Thank you!

And when was that exactly just out of curiosity?

I'm horrible at guessing how much time has passed.  Maybe 5 years ago they were released?

Actually, this might be the product announcement from TamiyaBlog from 2013:
