I take this as official confirmation that Tamiya will never make a serious effort in the scale trail truck scene :lmao:

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

But now they've jumped onto the portal bandwagon. Maybe they should add those to their cc01 Unimog kit.

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

I think these are the same portals that were on their 6x6 Dynahead.

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

I will probably buy this just to put the portals on my cc01.

the dyna head is cool, imo. itd be cooler if the wb was adjustable so you could choose to run bigger tires.

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Tamiya posted a video of the little thing in action.

I think Tamiya is putting their scale crawling bets on the upcoming CC-02 chassis that's being released.

Tamiya was doing trail rigs before most other companies were around. Bruiser, CC-01, etc.

This MB is awesome! Looks like a fun build.

This thing is about 20 years late to be considered "Trail" worthy I think :ror:.

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Well Tamiya walks to the beat of their own drummer. They always have and always will. They don't try to compete with anybody.

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

I wish they would re-pop the TLT! 🤩

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Tamiya is all about the FUN. And its fun every time you drive one.

SAME! I would stop making my own mini monster trucks if they would re-pop it. "thumbsup"

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Think those portals would fit the MF-01x?

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Exactly!

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

ooooohhhhh.... I kinda see where ya goin with that. "thumbsup"

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Not a bad idea, huh? :mrgreen:"thumbsup"

Re: Tamiya 1/14 monster beetle trail edition
 

Maybe i dont see where your going with that. But the only thing i can think of is the small hmmvw bodies now have a cool home. And there is a silvia and rx7 body that would be calling my name if i had the mf01x and the portals to bolt up.
