Hopefully not a fluke...

I can hear the "investors" scrambling to ebay right now to unload some merchandise.

Cool news, though.

i think thats the Tamtech kit

the yen price is close to that shop. i assume we are talking about the rough rider.

It's for real. Check out: http://tamiyablog.com/2009/05/tamiya-rough-rider-re-release-tamiya.html

I may finally be able to afford one .

in the short term prices will go down for sure on the real vintage stuff, but long-term, original is still original and the price will probably go back up.

I'm torn on the re-release. I have no desire to have a RR, but would like a scorcher as I am a big vw fan. I could get one and convert it with one of the bolink lexan bodies. But then I suppose the more of the RR they sell the more likely they are to do others in the series and I may wind up just getting both anyway.

The legendary RESHINGUBAGI BAGICHANPU Su Masu Eri's 30 full years! いま注目のより安全で取り扱いやすく、高寿命のＬＦ１１００-６．６Ｖバッテリーを搭載指定としました。 More secure and easier to handle the attention now, life has been designated high-LF1100-6.6V battery. 専用の充電器で充電お願いします。 Please charge in a dedicated charger. キットとバッテリーは、価の為、特価が変更になる場合もあります。 And battery kit for the price, you may change the bargain. ＊画像は、旧バギーチャンプです。 * Image is BAGICHANPU Town.


This is awesome. I don't know what's going on, but I love being able to change the bargain.


When am I going to get my re-re Blackfoot already?

Is this for real???...It can't be...it must be a bad late April fools joke..

If they release the Rough Rider, does it mean we can finally buy a "BRAND NEW" Sand Scorcher in the very near future?...and not have to spend a small fortune???

You mean I won't have to scan scalper's posts on E-Bay only to be "sniped" at the last 3 seconds when I find a semi restorable beater that's under $350+?

I've wanted one for over 25 years!

Count me in.

SOLD!

Hmmm.

Still no mention of it on Tamiya USA's site...

that's what i was hoping to see in that link................

I was hoping for a king cab or super astute

Just one word...bumpers!

This is a copy direct from the sight mentioned, I hope there are no issues with sharing it.


I hope nobody minds a sneak peek:

Is this the same chassis as the scorcher? All we would need is the body/decals?

yup, and body mounts. you can get lexan repro bodies for relatively cheap, and I think someone was doing repro stickers, but never looked into it too much as the chassis was always too expensive for me to bother.
