Inspiring thread this.

The Dromida SC4.18 I bought at Hobbex here in Sweden, the Holiday Buggy was from ebay, and my rere Sand Scorcher and Fighting Buggy was again from ebay. I do have a Hornet coming in soon as well, I'm too curious about its handling so I just had to get one of those grasshopper chassis.

Enjoy the pic.

Look at the beauty of the Holiday Buggy. I have yet to paint the details and place the decals, but I am very nervous about that. I've not painted any models since I was a little boy, my last model paint work was so ugly I placed the experience under "very traumatic childhood events" together with my bicycle accidents.

TBH I doubt it - if you look at the manuals (both for the 58141 original and the 84071 re-release) both show sprues in exactly the same places, and both show decals placed over the sunk spot.

Tamiya bodies vary from barely needing any work to remove mould lines (e.g. Sand Rover), needing some work (e.g. Willy's Wheeler/Honda City Turbo, Sand Scorcher) to needing a lot of fettling (e.g. re-re Bruiser). I can't tell from your photo, but it sounds like it's still on the spectrum.

My first release wrangler body has this disgusting hole on the roof. And my "rere" has 4 screwing holes under step doors. You maybe bought a first gen body. The original CC01 body.
