Default And it begins!



Got a new unimog yesterday and boy do I have a vision for this. This is the first Tamiya product I have had since The Fast Attack vehicle in the 80's. I believe this has a lot of potential.

There's a silly amount of potential. Even just modifying them is a hoot.

I have not even unwrapped the factory cellophane. I have read about several modifications that I can do. I have also read blackfoots thread on some of the free mods that should be done during the building process. I am constantly searching for more info.

Yeah! I was surprised how fast and easy it was to build. I had so much fun with this build. The cc-01 would be a great first build for almost anyone!
