Well I was wrong about the _specifics_ of the roof decal - but not the fact it would be badword

I think you could cut the decal up & rearrange the letters ... I've been working on anagrams, there's not a lot to work with - I've yet to come up with anything decent

It doesn't get much easier if you don't use all of the letters, or cheat & use the M upside down as a W, or even if you think about chopping the spare letters up for punctuation ...

Here, the leftover J gets snipped & rotated for a comma:





And here, the lefover R gets carved up for an excalmation mark:






I also see the triangular decal on the bonnet has become "Wild One Offroader", and the side decals are no longer "Wild Ones".

Looks promising im wondering what the price will look like? do we go with a similar price to the fav re re? i can hear my wallet groaning again still recovering from my Avante. Then we have the super hotshot which ill never be able to afford at this rate but i have to have one of these. So many choices so little cash its like being back in the eighties and a kid

Note: ways to make extra cash without selling organs i have two of

the new shocks look good
also, can anyone see any differences besides the shocks and decals?

Fasteners & shock spacers are different, & dunno what that black thing is on the rollbar... looks like it's been fixed with black tape! Oh, & lack of MSC.
I'd also comment that the rear tyres are on backwards for the photo shoot - another "Tamiya peculiar" for Lars then!

also, it looks like the wheels are reinforced

They do indeed look ribbed on the inside.



1st UK price is 149 GBP at Fusion Hobbies (although you can't preorder yet), which is 10 GBP (13 EUR, 16 USD or AUD) more than the FAV ... I suppose that makes sense - prices always go up, the dampers will cost more, and there must have been some extra development cost in the wheels ... I wonder if they make a Fox re-re a step closer?

Anyway, I have dropped a certain well-known HK based seller a line asking them to put me on the list for a Wild One - living on value beans on toast for a month or two won't be too bad, well unless you get downwind of me

Price at Fusion Hobbies is now 179 GBP

the price isn't too bad
