I was kinda wondering that myself, but maybe from a reality perspective, it looks more real with the nuts on the outside? That's how it works with 1:1 cars...oh well.

They do,

But I like the scale looks. The (lug) nuts look a little better than giant (scale) screw heads..

I've always done that on my Tamiya type wheels.

- Tamiya...

The first hobby grade RC I ever saw in my life, was when I was riding the city bus at 12 years old. There was an older kid maybe 14-15, sitting in the back of the bus, with the Tamiya Sand Scorcher box in his lap. All I could see was the side of the...

The paint looks to have settled, or become a bit smoother today, now that it's dry.

The weather is nearly ideal right now to paint the blue layer, but I need to make sure to let the white dry properly.

Really happy with what I have so far now,...

Just wondering what the pros cons are, differences between the original and re release?

I really want one but need to know about what I should look for in a used one.

So what does everyone think will be the next re-re. I'm hoping for a FOX or WILD ONE.
