Somthing about these older vids that find so relaxing to watch :)
I love looking back at your old videos Glenn. You’ve advanced so much. Watching lunchbox build videos cause well I just got my first lunchbox 😁
It is amazing to me how they took such a horrible ft suspension design, and made it such an integral part of the fun of this truck. I got the ampro ft suspension on one of mine with a 5 oil shock setup, and while the ampro handles much much better, the original is just much more fun to drive.
Always loved the lunch box and midnight pumpkin 👍👍👍
Ishtiaq Ahmed
Yep two classics 😍👊🏻
Just got a Lunchbox (first kit) - useful video thanks!
🐸 Cool to see some retro electronics going into a classically styled RC. Great 👍 build video, thank you for sharing. Later
GREEN FROG R.C.
Cheers buddy, much appreciated and thanks for watching 👊🏻
What an Iconic Piece Of Kit There Glenn, Love This Truck iT is Just Brilliant The way In Bounces and Bobs Around , Cheers Bud :-)
Thank you 😊
Just finished my build!! I’m so hooked. On my 6th since Xmas 2020.
Hello I just got mine did you glue the tires? Thanks
@@lazesq Not, yet. Not sure I will. I am not going to be racing it or anything crazy like that so I don’t need to worry about the wheels spinning inside the rubber. We’ll see. Maybe I will once I get it all together. Going to start painting the body today.
Yet another cool video Buddy. Really therapeutic watching the fast forward part of the build. Great work as usual. Keep it up.
😉😉😉

Much appreciated Mark 😍👊🏻
Man...you keep my addiction alive brother! I think this may be my next Tamiya LOL
Flyin'ItalianStallion
Excellent 🤩👊🏻
Thanks for watching buddy
Never really looked at the lunchbox the way you have described it and I suppose it is one of the best from a price, fun view point 👍 still love the blackfoot but the price is a bit much right now..
And so that's what that slapping noise is! I need the proper cva shocks for mine
I used the shocks upgrade suggested from the manual. It really helps the Lunchbox perform, the Fox/NovaFox rear shocks work very well also! Great video.
The BEAST !!! Great vid .
My dad wants this and I'm her excuse to get one. im one Lucky little shit.
darkest shadow
Lol love it 😂👊🏻
These are Fantastic fun , seen loads of reviews and I've not heard a bad word said about this kit , fantastic build video my friend 👍😁👍
Really enjoyed putting my Lunchbox together. Great vehicle.😎
Alright Tamiya. Lets find out if you're as smart as i hope you are.
Ii just purchased the sealed bearing kit. Has 9 pieces. Eight the same size, and a smaller one. Four (4) of them fit the front wheels just fine. The rear wheels are a different story. Three is no way they will fit. The axle hole is just large enough to allow the axle to fit through. No room ay all for the bearing race. There's no cavity for it to fit into. There are 5 lugs that lock into 5 seats on the hub surrounding the sxle shaft.
I can omit the bearings and everything is fine. The tire/wheel locks onto the matching hub on the trans assembly just fine. But, no room for a bearing.
Hiya,
The Sport Tuned serves the Lunchbox almost perfectly, I hope you have got ball bearings, rather than the crappy plastic bushings you get with the kit, as it makes a huge difference in response and handling.
Would you consider making a video on the Tamiya Sport Tuned motor?
Vomit Harvest
Hi buddy,
Yes I’m making the motor videos at the moment, so stayed tuned 😎👊🏻
Look Forward to them, cheers
You still like the mechanical speed control opposed to the new one and can you purchase them and also what is the best upgrade motor for your normal Timaya cars such as the Blackfoot The Lunchbox the monster beetle
Nice build! I sold my previous LB 2 years ago, regretted it (I no longer sell off any Tamiya kits lol) and I have one NIB waiting in the build queue. Will probably do a build video with it early next year. I'll be running modern electronics though. ;) 👊✌
I've always wanted a lunchbox, but now I cannot make up my mind between LB, Clodbuster and Konghead. I know they all have their own charms, I just don't know what will keep me amused while I am not driving my drift car. I just want to kick up some leaves in the woods, and bounce over some logs.
Still cool in 2019
This is one I want to get some day.
We did the lunchbox in buildoff 2, we built like over 20 of them across the globe, it was one of the best buildoffs we had
STEVO D 313
Oh excellent I’ll check back and have a watch of that 😍👊🏻
Hey bud, hreat vids. Im looking at building a Re re but with as many original parts as i can. could you let me know what part the speed controller is so i can try and source the correct one :) iv just bought a Acoms techniplus with all radio gear inc as i had the same as a kid . thanks
Old school electric fun but they can runaway. On thing I was thinking was the straight to reverse can be done with the ESC. Use one that the brake can be turned down a little and use crawler mode instant reverse.
Basildon Trail Blazing Buddies
Excellent I didn’t know you could do that 🤔
Thanks for the info 😎👊🏻
Nice build I just started building an original midnight pumpkin I had that was still in the box from the early 90’s
clodbusted
Oh that’s cool, I’ve never had a pumpkin 😞
I need to get one of your Clods 😍👊🏻
TAMIYA Legends I thought about selling some I have hundreds of clods I’m running out of room
Fantastic
Try the red or black o rings to damp the shocks 👍 this definitely is the best Tamiya truck by a mile and it pops wheelies...🤗
If I could only have 2 items in life it'd be the Avante and the lunchbox all a man could ever want
Gav G
Great idea buddy, I’ll do that 😎👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends Glad to be of service 👍
Do you get the MSC brand new or second hand? I can’t find any brand new for my bush devil.
What star screwdrivers do you use please?
Max Trader
I use the Tamiya Blue to tool set, absolutely perfect for the job 😊👊🏻
Thanks for the great vid. Looking at getting a lb as my first RC which can also be used by my 8 year old daughter. She is sold on the wheelie factor alone ;) Just got to convince the misses we need a £££ RC car in the house :) Would u recommend upgrading the shocks? I think I'll get some bearings for the build. New sub!
6 kits since Lockdown and your fault lol my wifey isn't happy and now I want to order a Lunchbox...... I've got a problem and two out of control credit cards 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Paul Robinson
Oops sorry 😂👊🏻
There’s worse addictions 🤩
Why do you blokes next door still use the two stick radios? Do you find them better than the wheel radios?
James West
I prefer wheel but I do like using stick when I can 😊👊🏻
I prefer stick
Many use stick radios now for the retro factor. Back when these trucks first came out, stick radios were more prevalent than pistol grip radios. I like the stick on my original, but like the pistol for my faster upgraded box.
Hi Glenn.
Think I've missed a step on my LB the wheels sit facing outwards on both sides despite servo being centered and arms set at correct lengths.
Any ideas?.
Can you email pictures to Tamiyalegends@gmail.com?
Looks hard and the instructions are shite, I'm worried.
