Nice!

I wish I could find a brand new the fox buggey would love to build it and own it

What did you clean the outside of the body to make it shine so well?

No offense dude, but you seriously need a life. This is a toy car, not a Rolex. Most normal people would look for differences between old and new manufacturing - ie are they using stronger plastics, changing plastic parts to metal, changing the gearing, etc etc. You’re looking shit that no one cares about. The f-ing do-not-throw symbol on the new chassis? Seriously.

Great work on this build. I've looked for a Vanning to restore, but they are pricey these days. Well out of my league back in the day too.

You sure do know your stuff, I had the Fox and the Hot Shot in the mid 80's. So now I'm going to find a video on the original Hot Shot. MEMORIES!!!!!

So where is the re-build video?

Beautifully presented and quite fascinating. Thank you 😎👍🏻

Was only able to get the Nova Fox, The FOX was originally going to be my first RC kit but got the TAMIYA HOTSHOT. Thanks for sharing.

Mad congrats, I also wanted the VANNING , but got the Tamiya HOTSHOT instead my local hobby shop had a package combo then, kit and radio. Thanks for sharing.

maybe it's camera distortion, but your toe & camber look seriously off in front and back. nice otherwise.

I have an original Holiday Buggy with period Acoms electronics. This model and the Sand Rover used a plastic bathtub chassis, so totally different to the SRB chassis.

Great comparison, only just found your channel, shame that you appear to have stopped uploading, I will go through your others though! Thanks for your vids.

Where the hell did you get that.

R u TRYING to break it!? Hard packed dirt. Not even a good spot to run.. Terrible

Παίζει χαλιά.

35years ago, it was not easy to ajust this mech. Speed Controller as a child.

I had a pencil case with a picture of this model in 1982. Nice restoration.

My only real problem (with the OEM Makita version of this) is that the clutch is electronic. They give torque settings in the manual for each of the clutches' positions but it, like almost all e-clutches, is not consistent. At least not enough to strip or damage things (a point you made in terms of just too much power). I'm used to lugging around a 10 lb impact wrench at work, so this feels like a feather all day working on the various machines I run if they need service. Frankly, I would want one just for the bragging rights. Tamiya has always been nuts.

Had one back in 84, and have a rerelease now in 23…👍

The Black foot was the first monster truck released in october 1986. love the clod buster i have a original with chevy badged body. ...great video

Honestly this thing should just be put on a shelf as a collectors piece . Tamyia stuff is normally valuable because of name brand. Lol it was priced like 600$ on there web site

This was in all the late 80's magazines, what great memories seeing it again within a video. Looks like a great restore project and the final product looks Perfect! Nice Paint work!

Still looking for a Vanning myself, beautiful restore -- enjoy it!

Vintage Tamiya packages are so cool when you open them 😊

Great video and restoration! 👍🏼🤩😊

What product do you recommend for the clear finish? Thank you

Hello, I have the first version of the kart 10 NR 4939. NIB for sale.

I hope mine is where i left it . Poor thing needs restored as well and a rod for the engine . The only time i hesrd mine run is when it started and reved and snapped the connecting rod.. . Someday sometimes never comes .. i have no clue what the cash value of one of these might be . Maybe i will let it go someday ..

Thx a lot for your in depth explanation… I just bought a Vintage lunch box and you helped me a lot to understand what I have to care for restoring it 👍👍

very very nice

Great video! I had the Hornet as a kid & always liked the Frog & today I finally bought one! I bought the Re-release Frog XB for a good price. Also my original comment keeps being removed. What the heck YT? It has nothing wrong in it. Go AI... As of today, a vintage Frog (factory sealed) is being sold online for $2200 btw...

Tomorrow by together 😊

If the engine is O.S. SE-B?? 😯😳 Same head as RF-B for side exhaust..... 😀 I saw the engine I missed. 😥😭😭😭

Thats why i love the vintage more then the re-release... the presentation pack is far superior then the newest. Amazing video btw. I'd like to see more af these videos around... luckely i found yours, Thanks.

They did a nice job with the car, but I think the greatest (and probably only) disappointment is the decal sheet. Looks like no liscensed decals, so as far as I can tell, just a bunch of semi-lookalike, made up company names. The original sponsor decals give it a much more authentic feel, while the new sheet makes it look more toylike. It's a shame, really. You said the most noticeable to you was the KC Daylighter lamp covers, which are very noticeable on the box, but on the sheet and on the car, the most notoceable to me is the giant NGK spark plug logo on the hood. The new Tamiya Racing logo is nowhere near as attractive. I am sure they did it to save from paying liscensing fees, but I really wish they had kept at least a few of them. I wouldn't mind paying a bit more for the kit to have them. Anyway, thanks for the video. It was very well done. Have a good one.

I think this was the last buggy on this layout? Then came Burns, Turbo Burns, Inferno which looks a lot like todays buggys.

Nice video! Do you happen to know the size of the dampers/ shocks? I need to replace some missing ones that im trying to build. I wish there was a tutorial for these cars on here. It will make a killing in views as a lot of people are getting more and more interested in this model but is intimidated at the lack of knowledge. Thanks

Hey where do you get the aluminium lower suspension arm mounts from?

This is a fantastic side-by-side comparison. Thank you!

I really like your deep dive into the differences down to the packaging, parts trees and parts themselves. Really very very interesting. I do prefer the blister pack on the box on the inside. It's more techy and the bins can be used to store parts.

Great review. The Clod is awesome. I have my origianl one from 1988 and just sits in my glass case. I have 3 others built and 4 in the box. Those are all Super Clods.

It's like Tamiya designed the suspension to work for the body and not the wheels/axles 😆

I really wish they molded the body in yellow like they do the wheels. Great comparison video.

Very useful!

Cool I remember those and the Mint from the 80s.

Thanks mate, great video. I brought my first RC Blackfoot in 1988, she stills runs. A couple of years ago my wife brought Monster Beetle for a present and it brought back a lot of memories😂😂😂. So I have been collecting all the ones I have always wanted……I got 7 built so far, 8 still in the box😁😁 and I have roughly another 15 I want to get. Very similar to your collection🤙🏿🤙🏿✊🏾✊🏾. Catch up and happy collecting👋🏿👋🏿👋🏿

I love it . Had one in the 80s and regretably sold it. So im gratefull for the re-release , now i got one again to enjoy in my retirement. Best gift to myself, ever. The fact that its a van is special to me coz i love vans .🚐

Did you create a video building the Tamiya Fox? It would be great if you create (or created)a build video.

The no guts no glory sticker is the frog stamp. My dad bought one when I was born in 83
