A modern day Pathfinder (Terrano) or 4-Runner would be sweet. Ties into their heritage and lets them get into the scale game. The old RV chassis was way ahead of its time. IFS, Solid axle scale truck with a CVT trans in '91? (Or dual electric motors for the electric version) Still feel bad about letting mine go.
Fingers crossed it's something interesting. Please not a mini-Z... I know it's their best selling brand, but still....
Edit...just watched video 2, sure looks like a mini Z to me.

Here is a pic from their fb page, showing there booth for the Nuremberg toy fair.
Looks like a micro crawler course set up in the middle.

How long before they are available, do you figure?
Usually, Kyosho new products are available here in the states, a few months after launch. I will get you an answer on the estimated arrival to the US and post back here.

Between the 1st and 2nd video it seems like there might be 2 different bodies?
Yeah these definitely seem like 2 different bodies or platforms.
I agree the one in the 2nd video looks to be the new Suzuki Jimny.
Here are some images of the new Jimny if anyone wants to compare

I'm so unhappy it's not 1/10 scale 
Knowing Kyosho, I'm sure these little things will be almost as expensive as 1/10 scales :x

Have a couple headed my way now for testing at the RCP facility in Colorado. Working on something special for Kyosho launch here in the states.

They look scale as heck! I like em!
I have Nitto ridge grapplers on my full size truck, it’s cool to see they went to the trouble of having the different sidewall tread patterns on the tiny scale versions too hehe.
RC stuff is so damn expensive here, scx24’s are $220 to $260, I’m worried what these are gunna cost by the time they get to Australia.
Have almost pulled the trigger on the scx24, will wait and see now...

The few sound bites of motor that can be heard between guitar riffs sounds as if they are highly anemic. Needs more volts or a bigger motor. Lots of chassis hanging underneath the hardbody, too as well of open large wheel wells. All fixable issues most likely and once the 3d printers get going scale bits will be available. Would like to see more period correct wheels on the 4Runner. $100 range or less, I’ll have one.

These are a whole new redesign than the previous Overland version.

The Kyosho website says 27,500 yen which is about $250. Considering most Mini Zs run close to $200, I'll say there is little chance of these being near $100.

Good. At that price, it will totally cure my desire to have one. :lmao:
