This is Grahoo's frog, man... that's what legends are made of. This was the most buzz-making RC car on the internet not so long ago. Go for it!

Not so long ago? I remember buying that magazine while I was in Japan still... right there in the right top corner it says sept. 2007.
How time flies!

didn't he also do a fully independent suspension grasshopper/hornet?
it had links in the back IIRC, could be someone else though.

Would that car qualify for the VONATS ?

Wait, I would end up getting beat by Brandon G running a Grasshopper....

i bought the magazine specifically for this article on the frog. really, really slick car

we often paint, anodize, restore. but this guy pretty much re-engineered the frog from the ground up. a true "modder"

And there was a kick @$$ super modded Hot Shot too.

Yeah, that Frog is amazing. I'd like to get it just to build my own.

very cool stuff.. i never really understand the complete remakes of the old tamiyas.. not something id do but very nice work.. its nice to see real custom work..

Now that's how to do a Re-Re !!! I want that car.

It ended at 126,000 yen

$1400 that's a expensive frog lol

see? the price at which it was noticed when this thread was created wasn 't that crazy

the buyer got himself one of the most famous cars of the 00's...

more crazy japanese Refit frog 4wd

Wow, they really like their Frogs! Pretty cool stuff
