if it was really being produced by a company, i bet they wouldent be desplaying a tamiya esc in that rig unless its tamiya.... so it has to be made by tamiya...

We are all saying that this isa Tamiya product.

So the ESC makes sense.

did no one notice the Landcruiser FJ 40 ??

Looks like we may be seeing new or retyped axles, new tires and beadlocks from tamiya. Even if the chassis is less than perfect the parts are good

It is Tamiya, so from history, we don't expect much. Tamiya may just be the greatest recycler on Earth. Being a 1:10 scale rig, it is almost guaranteed that the axles will be exactly like, or close relatives of, TLT/HiLift/CC-01/Semi axles. To be honest, why would they change up but so much?

The tires, being stock from Tamiya, will suck in reference to traction.

The locks look interesting that is for sure. Waiting for specs for them!!





I can see about a million scale rigs being built off the stock frame rails!!!:-P But if the price is right on the rig off the shelf, they may be a big seller. From history [again] Tamiya will overprice it, and the overall value of the truck won't meet what is already available from other manufacturers.

Sorry, just stating truth.

I like my job; can't jeopardize it by giving out info that I'm not yet authorized to give.
