    always loved the Frog as a kid but It was expensive. Ended up with a Brat I threw a spare 540 silver can on. Had a ton of fun with the Brat but always wanted a Frog. Nice to see the re re kits and your videos.

    Glad the frog won! The frog is my favourite Tamiya buggy. I really like the Brat aswell though. The Frog is the one I remember most from the mid 80s when I was a Kid. I was obsessed with Tamiya buggies as a kid but never owned my own until I got a Grasshopper last year 😊

    My first rc car was a frog. I liked the Subaru brat and Lancia rally more but they lacked the oil filled rear shocks . I don't believe they had the 540 motor or a differential either. Kinda a shame. Other choice was recommend by the hobby shop was rc10 and ball bearing version was $180 vs $100 for the frog or about $75 for the Subaru or Lancia. This was in 1984 or 1985 btw. The Subaru and Lancia have nicer looking bodies tho. Frog is a FUN car . Lots of my friends got hotshot or Blackfoot.
