Tamiya Breaking News 2024! New RC Releases At The Nuremberg Toy Fair, Germany.

[@ronaldgandia6048]

For the XM-01 rally chassis with 3 lengths of wheelbase available (S,M &L), S:210mm, M:225mm, L: 239mm, A 959 body would work perfectly for the short wheelbase…

[@xy-wg3wj]

Kadett, Citroen, GTR, NSX, Celica, TRF421...all a wow from me!

[@IntegraDIY]

2:57 that’s awesome, finally they rereleased this body. I have all the original NSX bodies that were released on the TA03, now I can get more and custom paint them!

[@sjdz8123]

Definitely the ta03 Mobil NSX was a stunner! I foolishly used mine as a racer body.....it didn't last.....

[@knightstemplar6243]

I think Tamiya should re- release some of there late 1970’s. Early 80’s RC models like the blazing blazer. / ford ranger and so on

[@bespincustompropsbombarta8300]

There was only about 4 from the late 70's and most have been rere. The blazer and ranger won't get rere unless Tamiya pay for licensing, which is why the sand scorcher, rough rider and superchamp have all been done in the last couple of years. Even the blackfoot lost it's ranger body with ford embossed on it along with the ford decals.

[@wintersdawn]

Another vote for Blazing Blazer, maybe Tamiya could de-badge/re-name to get around licensing. It would be an expensive kit though, guessing £400 at least.

[@bespincustompropsbombarta8300]

@@wintersdawn Blazer would be 600 at minimum as it uses the same 3 speed gearbox and chassis as the Toyota Hilux.

[@Alan-cg8gx]

I would love to see Tamiya do an Opel Manta 400 rally body😎😎😎😍😍😍

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

Saw these on the socials a few hours ago. The Opel Kadet sold here in Australia as Holden Gemini and has a following. Hyped for it, the Celica, NSX and Audi.

[@mitsuman5555]

This video went great with my morning coffee 😄 The number one thing I'd like to see from Tamiya may also be the most unlikely -- a Juggernaut re-re.

[@garywilson3582]

Might get mantaray and change it to a dirt thrasher...what happened to falcon,mud blaster,porsche 959,celica,madcap,Astute original

[@JimBoBJames-no5db]

Yeah I seem to remember there were rumours of the Falcon ,and Porsche 959 being re released. Maybe they're still on the way. Or possibly it was only wishful thinking . I'd like to see them be rereleased. And the astute also. Gavin I'm definitely interested in the Hot Shot 2. It's about time Tamiya did this right instead of the blockhead motors paint scheme.

[@VintageJoe1976]

Manta Ray, Top force and the Black Metallic Clod buster are DEFINITELY what I will purchase this year. I’m actually looking forward to be able to purchase the Manta Ray again. I had two of the back in 91’. The Tamiya Manta Ray was my first kit so it has a special place in my heart. It’s worth noting that the Manta Ray (DF-01 chassis) was the forefather of the TA-01,02 series chassis, Ff-01, buggy variations, rally cars, stadium trucks. The Top Force was midrange favorite because it contained a lot of performance parts included most would upgrade the Manta Ray withand The Top Force Evo was the “TRF” for advanced racers.

[@liamRC5487]

Love the citreon . And the opal. I remember them 1st time on the streets.

[@wolfenher6937]

That NSX TT-02 and the BT-01 Supra is what I have my eyes on right now

[@kanenstuff]

As an Aussie I love the NSX and JDM it will be a must, though I wish they had the Nissan 180SX so I could replicate my car.

[@nathanburnett6693]

Liking the idea of moding the ds into rally spec. The NSX definitely be a good addition.

[@vincenthawke3049]

Tamiya need to do the Dyna storm again and Terra conquerer!..... Maybe a madcap too!....Lazer zx or zxr from kyosho please

[@alaricbragg7843]

Thanks for this video! I love the Kadett. In New Zealand and Australia they were called Holden Geminis and were popular racing cars! Please consider reviewing some of these classic rally/touring cars in future! 🙂

[@JoevsRc]

God Morning! thanks for the update. I also see they might bring the Clod Buster black back.

[@christopherlastname7638]

My mom had a celica in 94 it was what I learned to drive stick I was 13 and that car was amazing!

[@RCKickschannel]

Wow that’s a good car to learn to drive in, mine was a 1.1 Fiesta lol

[@allscalerc]

Thank you we appreciate the updates! 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@martinneps9387]

I wish that they would come back out with a king Blackfoot truck.That truck was so much fun

[@MrCaprinut]

For me it's the Kadett. It was th first car I drove for someone else after I got my license.

[@ChrisGBusby]

As I own a real Citroen DS I really want that!!!

[@sanderdevolder4805]

That DS will go nicely with my 2CV 😍

[@edwinumayam2722]

Love the NSX body, may have to get that body for a spare.

[@TyJoe_N_MattyMoe]

The Opel is awesome. I can't wait to get a body to put on my Axial YETI Jr.

[@bespincustompropsbombarta8300]

Best drop they've done in ages, makes a change that it's not full of rere, compared to the norm of the last 3 years.

[@stephenwiddick4934]

I've said before, I like hardbody but the Citroën ds made my eyebrow rise. Need to see more images.

[@LukesVintageRC]

Actually Gavin the early TRF 400’s are reasonably priced for what they offer. I have TRF414 and TRF 415 Rheinard for couple hundred each. Great looking machines too with carbon etc. great videos as usual. Thanks

[@RCKickschannel]

Lovely chassis and some stunning hop ups included but £900! That’s XRAY money and some right? Who is the customer at that price? I’m suspecting it’s loads less in the US and Japan but in the UK?

[@oberon2230]

I have wait for the Hot Shot II for 10 years!!! YAY FINALLY!!! I love my Super Shot and it is better than the HS II but, there is just something about the HS II that is so cool!

[@bespincustompropsbombarta8300]

10 years? A bit more than that as it's not been made since the 80's

[@BLThackrey]

that citroen gives me Bttf part 2 vibes , gotta get one of those .

[@alexalexandre1574]

I would like to see the return of the hard bodies

[@FullOnRC]

For me personally I am looking forward to getting a Manta Ray. The price on Modelsport is interesting though £149.00.

[@FastFreddyRC]

Great stuff Gavin! Was hoping for different ones but a few of these look interesting. The Citroen interests me just for the look. Guess we’ll see if anything else gets released or if that’s it.

[@lee4741]

I'll be ordering a Manta Ray it seems a rare car to get hold of for some reason not many come up. I've got the Hotshot 2 on order hopefully that arrives soon

[@danrennekamp5698]

Really excited about the manta ray chassis coming back, not the body the chassis I believe it shares the chassis with the dirt Thrasher which I have been wanting to do for a long time hopefully MCI and team blue Groove have the body and decals!

[@darinjennings1047]

That new rally chassis. I see a 959 body coming out for that or a delicate. Prefect fits

[@RCKickschannel]

I was thinking if a 959 body would fit

[@darinjennings1047]

@RCKickschannel would be the short cut to desire for a 959 reboot. I really hope that does not happen.

[@Hamish1968]

Looking forward to the XM-01 - proper 4WD on an M-chassis, I have a body tucked away that’ll work great on that. Also pleased for the NSX, the body set will rescue an old restoration project! The Celica body was rereleased not so long ago but it’s nice to see, especially with the correct Castrol decals.

[@fab9114]

Waiting for the bronco!!

[@thecretanbull4784]

Good morning Gavin from Canada! Really hoping Tamiya re re the Fast Attack Vehicle. Any ideas or clues you may have picked up in as our news in Canada from over seas is non existent. We rely on you guys. Thanks and so appreciated!

[@RCKickschannel]

Nope nothing on the FAV

[@SniffersRcGarage]

Love tamiya want to see another run of avante. love the touring cars, wish they would do more like the bbx new design old school looks.

[@alphawlff]

Might get a Manta Ray or Top Force

[@chriswhitham9233]

Hi great channel. I was hoping for a Toyota mountain rider

[@pongosp]

Yes i am hoping for the King Cab🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@RCKickschannel]

Yep you and us all

[@guyguybohurst3304]

I would like to see Tamiya rerelease the 1/10th scale Falcon 2WD Buggy once again 😎

[@RCKickschannel]

You and a load of others for sure.

[@lornefrancis9231]

Great video as always have a great day from NFLD Canada

[@TheBrodir]

I'm excited about the releases. I admit the the MB-01 is getting very nice bodies, even I'm not a big fan of the chassis itself. The 1998 Honda NSX body i will get that! XM-01 looks also very nice and i fancy it, but no use for one just now.

[@lo2713]

The NSX looks sweet as 👌 manta ray and the opel GT/e are my faves the ds looks great. But a rally version would be better 👍

[@tomhunter3075]

After the BBX I thought they might do another one on that chassis. I built mine recently and it is really really good. All of this feels a bit weak. I love Tamiya but not especially impressed with this they are capable of so much more.

[@markcalhoun8219]

Was really hoping for a 4WD BBX chassis build.

[@tomhunter3075]

@@markcalhoun8219 That would be really good yes!.

[@scaleworksRC]

Nothing really jumped out at me, but I'm sure these releases will appeal to someone. The Opal would probably be my choice if I had to pick one.

[@keithpowell4664]

Your TRF Comments made me laugh 😂 I feel like this with Kyosho. Im just not going to look into them at all as I dont have to pockets to get into Kyosho as well as Tamiya’s 😂

[@RCKickschannel]

I’ve got my Kyosho group, my Schumacher group, my Tamiya group, my Team Losi group and my Team Associated RC10 group. I just can’t start another lol but the carbon and blue look so nice 😊

[@mikepage8183]

Hey man, once again a great video! Im a little behind due to life lol but I am super excited for re re of the manta ray!! Just ordered one at a great price of £125 (plus full ball bearings upgrade and esc) never built a 4wd and couldnt afford a top force so great compromise. Super excited 👏🏻👏🏻

[@RCKickschannel]

Enjoy your build and congratulations on your new RC 👍🏻👍🏻

[@RCBirds]

Nice report. I'm with tge Supra

[@samab3000]

When will tamiya re release the hi lux monster racer and kingcab. We keep getting the same re release over and over.

[@vigilante351]

That 1st car is called a Gemini here in Australia, probably sell more here than anywhere if people know about them. Still - nothing spectacular in those releases unfortunately. We all know what we are wanting....(Falcon / Super Astute / and maybe some TRF vehicles)

[@AGMEN1]

Is it true that there will be a re-edition of the Repsol Ford Escort RS Cosworth? If this is true, when will it be available in Europe? Thank you

[@teamjc_NY]

Waiting on the BT01

[@janrbh17]

I also like it when the driveline-type match. And also i think the tirewidth should be scale. So wider tyres in the rear on a car like a Supra or NSX.... The expensive chassis are not for me. I like the process of building. The driving is not so important to me 🙂

[@ezrajones7502]

still waiting on that monster racer re re, tamiya... cough cough... amazing video though gav, keep up the amazing work!

[@keithfrazier2558]

Do you know anything about the regular Egress coming back out? Tower Hobbies in America shows them being sold on Pre Order.

[@BlackSeaRC]

@@keithfrazier2558 Tamiya Egress (2013) 58583 is on the release list for March 2024.

[@d.dolphinstriker5737]

I was always very impressed with Tamiya. Unfortunately, this is becoming less and less over the years. I still have an original Hotshot II, unfortunately after the news of the reissue it is no longer worth much. Of everything they are going to release now, I think I like the Opel Kadet the most.

[@deepvoicegames5024]

No Falcon or Bear Hawk. Its not like the chassis hasn't been reissued since 2012 Blitzer Beetle and Stadium Blitzer

[@jaja5870]

Annoyingly, the Tamiya Subaru Brat is 2wd even though it has a 4wd sticker on the bonnet.

[@cjprior88]

The clodbuster is a car i like to have 😊

[@RCKickschannel]

It’s great but the steering, wow it’s bad until you fit servo on axle mods

[@broggsey]

Def wanted a manta ray, don’t really care about anything but buggy’s, as daft as it sounds our collections wouldn’t mean half as much if we could just buy any of them at any point. You seem to get a lot of people who get very angry about it and a lot of people who defend them no matter what but it is what it is they’re conspiring to take all our money but at the same time we love it even when they break as long as we can find the parts

[@coygtrc]

Well, lots of nice body that we did not know (NSX, DS, Kadett); but no new rere 😮 The Hotshot 2, we know since several months, Manta Ray and Top Force were done several times. Highly disappointed 😢 Where are Astute, Avante 2001, Falcon, Super Hornet, ... and some old F1 or Group C. Well, wait and see. Not much on Kyosho's side either 😢

[@garywilson3582]

i love the new Fiat and Opal.

[@rcinhand9671]

I'm disappointed that there's no Striker rere. Hint, Tamiya!

[@muskokamike127]

The thing about Kyosho keeping vehicles in production, they'd be insane to destroy the tooling so then it is only set up in production. I do cnc work, if a customer wants more of part x, I kept all the programs so all I have to do is mount the material, insert the correct bit, and run it again. I just ran off 50 pieces for 1 customer and if they come back next year for another 50, I can run em off again, no prob at all.

[@RCKickschannel]

Good point

[@muskokamike127]
