I wanted to start a thread for Tamiya Egress enthusiasts. This is easily my favorite buggy of all time from Tamiya. Whoever designed this mean-looking buggy hit a homerun. It looks so fast and awesome right out of the box.
This is my all-out 2022 rendition of the Tamiya Egress. The original 1989 is a classic. I used a reissue Egress as a base. I prefer the front suspension stance of the 1989 and took the A4 suspension part from an 89 and installed it on the reissue model. I also removed the golden front upgrights with the grey vintage cast uprights. The upright should have been silver or grey in color to begin with IMO. I upgraded my Egress with all the available aluminum option parts from G-Force in Japan. They are pricey but clean and sharp. All the electronics are from the vintage time period including the EX racing battery. I upgraded the ball cups for fit and color matching. Finally, the body was painted a little brighter and more sparkling with clear windows. Share your Egress photos or anything Egress related here!

Re: Ultimate Tamiya Egress Thread
I’ve not been here much lately, but thought I’d share my latest build. It’s a 2013 released kit, that I sourced some reproduction BF8/9 parts, and blue rod ends to replicate the original release. Other than these, and blue wheel nuts , the rest is built pretty standard.
