I seen the vintage commercial for this on tamiyas channel the other day. cool truck!

[@Matteomeier]

+the village idiot Yes, Tamiya shared the official promo video a few days ago! Thanks for your comment!

[@ginopunsalan]

Beautiful truck.

[@Jurgentaur]

The first Tamia rc I ever owned and still have to this day is the Bear Hawk..man I love that car so much👍😁

[@Matteomeier]

Cool 👍

[@The52r]

Tolle Filmtechnik, super Fahrzeug der Blazer! Daumen hoch!

[@Matteomeier]

+The52r Vielen Dank! Man erhält nicht oft die Möglichkeit eine solche Legende zu filmen!

[@ml-tecmodellbau9133]

Hoi Matti, schönes Video, das waren noch Zeiten.. da kommen mir die Tränen!!

[@Matteomeier]

+ML-TEC der Modellbauer Danke Lodi! Ja die guten alten Zeiten... bereust es das du ihn dem Roger verkauft hast...:-)

[@BuoyEngine]

This is super cool RC and film has many great scenes!!

[@Matteomeier]

+BuoyEngine Thank you! Yes it's a RC legend!

[@yatta-man4278]

Fantastic!

[@mikeymike3240]

awesome, what a car,still looking great today and getting the beans on the rough. :)

[@Matteomeier]

+Mikey mike Thanks for your good comment!

[@DaveyGa]

Great video, as always! So rare to see one of these being driven, and even rarer to see one being WELL USED! Glad it was captured and posted, thanks Matteo and owner :D

[@Matteomeier]

+DaveyGa Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@MrBonger88]

Nice to see one of these been used the way it's supposed to but if I had one of my own in such nice condition I don't think I would have the courage to drive it over rocks like that

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! And the car was not mine! I had to be very careful!

[@ShenRC]

WOW Nice truck!Look at those leaf springs go! It bounces around so LOVELY!Great video!

[@Matteomeier]

+shenlonco Thanks! Yes it's the charme of bouncing leaf springs...

[@BJ40films]

Wow Matteo, great that you find such a rare Tamiya! Awesome, thumbs up!

[@Matteomeier]

+BJ40films Thanks! Thankfully my friend let me do this with his Blazer!

[@Tamor70]

Glory to the Nostalgia :-) ! So glad you could make a "movie" with the Blazer...quite rough driving though, and seems it has a well tuned (fast) engine as well - great stuff, & thanks for sharing, best regards

[@Matteomeier]

+Tamor70 Thanks Daniel. Seems the Blazer have a better suspension than the 4x4 Hilux!

[@dado0099]

+Matteo's RC Movies Hi Matteo super cool video as always. It seems to me that the leaf springs are not the stiff original, but they are that from the Bruiser (softer).

[@Matteomeier]

dado0099 Yes, the springs are much softer than the Hilux, but I don't know if this the original ones or not. The owner of the Blazer tells me they are the original one, but he have it from second hand also...

[@jsa2001]

Tamiya should re release this. It would sell like crazy.

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, please Mr. Tamiya! 🙏🙏🙏

[@KT_One]

Yes, and hopefully with softer suspension.

[@brandonroberts73]

sick video and what a rare beast

[@MountainStorm]

I really enjoy your editing style and music, and that's one sweet Blazer.

[@Matteomeier]

+Mountain Storm Glad you like it! Thanks for your comment!

[@10OZDuster]

I could not afford these in '82 …what a wonderful footage to relive the past glory of the blazer. the film effects added is just perfect for this vehicle

[@Matteomeier]

Same as me, too expensive in my younger years! But glad to get a chance now to film it! Thanks for your nice compliments!

[@mudspencer4939]

Und wieder ein Top-Video von der CC-01 Legende. Danke Matteo, deine Videos haben mich zu diesem Hobby gebracht.

[@Matteomeier]

+Scale Garage Vielen Dank, das freut mich sehr zu hören!

[@mikeymike3240]

hey there Matteo, you really drove the wheels off this old timer. I wouldn't have done it, I'd have treated it a bit more reverently, lol classy rig, pity they're sooooo expensive. great video. 😀 👍 👍 👍 👍

Wow, one of my favourite Tamiya Models. Nice video you made!

[@Matteomeier]

+Clipboard Thanks for your nice comment!

[@RogerGeissmann]

Mir kommt das Teil irgendwie bekannt vor ;-) Super Video

[@Matteomeier]

+Roger Geissmann Danke nochmal Roger, für die Gelegenheit ihn zu filmen! Gibts eigentlich noch Ersatzteile dafür? (Gebrochene Vorderachse, Getriebezahnrad 4, Hinterreifen aufgeschlitzt, Fahrer geköpft...) Nein, nein, keine Sorge, alles heil geblieben!

[@RogerGeissmann]

;-)

[@theibault]

Wow, your videos get better and better. Keep up the amazing work my friend.

[@Matteomeier]

+Theibault Thanks for your compliments!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Excellent Mateo! Very nice vintage model. I hope that Tamiya does a re-re on it, I'd be first in line!

[@Matteomeier]

+8imthatguy8 Thanks so much! Yes, a re-re would be great! I'd be the second, straight behind you!

[@CarminesRCTipsandTricks]

Once again - Great video Matteo! Nice, funky music and awesome piece of History!!! I was in the 11th Grade, and could not afford one of those. The shock and awe of seeing a $2000 Classic being USED, like it's supposed to. I'll bet you were wery careful with that Treasure!! 😲😲😲😲 You do such great work. Thank you for sharing so much!! 👍👍😎 ~ Carmine

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Carmine! Yes, I was very careful with that jewel! Especially cause it was not mine...

[@leewood1847]

Hello matteo love ur rc vids have done for some time now,they very detailed so is ur modelin skills.i have loved Tamiya from a kid thank u for such great videos.Ru gonna do one on the monster beetle only coz i seen it on nostalger vid but not one in action.Avid viewer.

[@Matteomeier]

+Lee Wood Thanks! Glad you like my videos! Monster Beetle video uploaded just now!

[@Nordmann61]

Thank you for sharing this brilliant video, as always, with us. You make it look so easy, but that is because you are so good at this! Much effort and preparation behind a video to make it look this good, I know. What a remarkable coincidence, I visited my rc shop today, and on his display shelf behind glass, he has a vintage collection of Tamiya cars, and the new car there was a Blazing Blazer from 82, and then a few hours later, you upload a Blazing Blazer! If Tamiya re-release it, I would seriously concider adding it to my collection. After seeing it in action in your brilliant presentation, I am even more sure I will. The Blazing Blazer ride as effortlessly and surefooted over the terrain as many of todays off road cars, and look good doing it, a rc car jewel from Tamiya! Cheers.

[@Matteomeier]

+Nordmann61 Thanks again for this great comment! Nice you see the effort behind a video, I appreciate this! And I thank you for taking the time to write so detailed comments!

[@michaelthomas3262]

Wieder mal ein tolles Video mit einem tollen Auto. Klasse 👍🏻👏🏻

[@Matteomeier]

+Michael Thomas Vielen Dank, freut mich zu hören!

[@scalerc4x4]

Great video Matteo!

[@Matteomeier]

+Tybos „Tybo's RC Motorsports“ RcMotorsports Thanks Tybo!

[@TomsRCScalers]

Alter Schwede, der Blazer ist vielleicht ein scharfes Teil ... kommt mir fast so vor wie ein Sand Scorcher 4x4 :-D. Ein richtig geiles Video ist das wieder geworden, Matteo!!!

[@Matteomeier]

+Tom's RC Scaler Dank dir Tom! Ja das Teil hat schon eine grosse RC- Geschichte geschrieben! Und hat mich erstaunt, hat gar nicht so schlecht funktioniert! Jetzt wird's dann wider mal Zeit für eine Rundfahrt, obschon bei mir jetzt eine strengere Zeit im Geschäft los geht...

[@istudioM]

Great!

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, they are rare and very expensive!

[@joliousvideous]

Very Nice Matteo !

[@Matteomeier]

Old school rc! Now that's really cool. Really enjoy how you put these together Matteo. Great job brother. Thumbs up!

[@Matteomeier]

+2stroke4me Thanks!

[@danielsmith4319]

Great stuff Matteo! Such a cool truck, I'm waiting for the re-release......... I've already put some cash asside!

[@Matteomeier]

+Daniel Smith Thank you! Yes, a re-release would be great!

[@lawnshedguy]

Thanks to Roger for allowing his Blazer to be used as intended! These usually sit on a shelf these days and collect dust. Much better to collect dust out in the wild I think! Thanks to Matteo for putting his usual flair on this video, completely enjoyable as usual. Love the location used for this shoot, perfection!

[@Matteomeier]

+lawnshedguy Thanks so much for your good words, both of us appreciate this!

[@craigpimlott204]

I’ve just dropped on an 80’s rough rider .that things gonna get the tyres run off it the same as my re re or new stuff ..

[@JURASSICDIVERUK]

Amazing video as always! Would love to see you do a video with one of the various Tamiya Tanks!😉

[@Matteomeier]

+WEYMOUTH RC RALLY Thanks! Tamiya Tanks are amazing for sure, but I am a kid of happiness, not war... :-)

[@MauriceRCProductions]

Mal wieder ein traumhaftes Video Matteo!Super Action!Das Auto ist ja sowieso Mega genial!Ich hoffe, dass er bald als Rerelease kommt:)

[@RCShowdown]

+Maurice RC Productions Der Blazer als Rerelease? :D Das wäre echt genial! Den würd ich mir sofort holen! ^^

[@MauriceRCProductions]

+RC Showdown Ich auch!:)

[@Matteomeier]

+Maurice RC Productions Danke Maurice! Ja, wäre super mit dem re-release, glaube aber persönlich nicht daran...

[@MauriceRCProductions]

***** Ja wahrscheinlich hast du leider Recht... Es ist auf jeden Fall wahrscheinlicher als der Porsche 959;)

[@RCShowdown]

Maurice RC Productions Meinst du man könnte den denn auf Basis eines anderen Chassis bauen? ;) Also die Räder sind u.a. beim Grasshopper zu finden. Für die Karosserie würde ich als Basis die hier [ www.projekt-l6.de/WebRoot/Store11/Shops/62093565/525E/6471/8D59/6836/0EDA/C0A8/2BB8/7B6A/3244-60-1.jpg] nehmen und Teile, wie das Dach, aus Plastik selber bauen. Und die Stoßstange wäre dann auch kein Problem mehr. ^^

[@luecu70000]

supper cooles video top auto top ort gruss luca

[@Matteomeier]

+luecu70000 Dank der Luca!

[@user-kc9hi2wr6l]

ライトがスマイルになっててかわいいですね！僕も砂場でラジコン走らせたいなぁ…

[@Matteomeier]

+ニッコリスマイル ありがとうございました！それを聞いてうれしいです！

[@no1streams]

sehr lecker!!! Bitte Tamiya legt ein remake von dem Model auf!!!

[@Matteomeier]

+GoodMusic Danke! Und deiner Bitte schliesse ich mich an!

[@jakemalatesta9592]

I've just looked at some axels for this vehicle on eBay and they look like the real thing, they don't make them like this anymore.

[@Matteomeier]

No, this is very old and very rare.

[@BasBoyRC]

One of those great trucks Tamiya needs to do a re-issue. Was this the only time they used this shell as i cannot think of another one it was used on.

[@Matteomeier]

+Malcolm Lambart Yes, a re-release would be great! I think they used it only for this car.

[@kenbee01]

すばらしいです！珍しい車ですね！(^^)

[@Matteomeier]

+kenbee01 ありがとうございます!!!

[@fitusm]

I love your videos ... They are great . Always enjoy them.. is this truck better for trailing than tamiya cc 01 ?

[@Matteomeier]

+fitusm Thanks for your compliments! No, not better, but something completely different. This Blazing Blazer is an RC "Oldtimer" it's more than 30 years old!

[@rolexr]

Die staubigen Sandpisten sehen genial aus . Kommt echtes Nostalgie Feeling auf mit dem Auto. O.K. Crawler ist er natürlich keiner ;-) Aber alleine schon die Achsen sind traumhaft schön! Ist das Bruiser Chassis oder?

[@Matteomeier]

+rolexr Vielen Dank! Nein ist nicht das selbe wie der Bruiser. Nur der Hilux 4x4 Pick Up und der Balzing Blazer hatten das selbe Chassis.

[@Dragsterkazan]

3000$ bashing! Cool)))

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, and it was not my own car, borrowed from a friend!

[@bestamerica]

hi M R M..... ' this blazing car is a same chassic with lift F-350 / hulix

[@ml-tecmodellbau9133]

Nein ist schon gut, ist ja in guten Händen 😢

[@SWISSSECRETDESIGN]

bravos shatz..comme d'hab super...torque motor?

[@Matteomeier]

+Yannick Nadelec Merci! No, stock motor from the kit.

[@JRC-pw3xi]

fände ich sehr nett

[@johnnyreno5944]

That's a rough ride! Is that the same chassis as the Bruiser?

[@Matteomeier]

+Johnny Reno No, it's not the same as the Bruiser, it's the same as the 4x4 Hilux. kzbin.info/www/bejne/moacZnWverCjmZI
