Tamiya Thunder Shot (2022) ** SALE **

The Tamiya Thunder Shot (2022) re-issue revives the 1987 classic with thoughtful updates. This RC model kit (HC-58706) pairs a pre-cut, pre-painted polycarbonate shell and wide rear wing with a durable ABS bathtub chassis designed for straightforward maintenance.

Underneath, four-wheel double wishbone suspension works with CVA II oil dampers and a front stabiliser to keep the 4WD platform composed off-road. Sealed front and rear gearboxes house compact, durable die-cast 3-planet differentials, while studded tyres provide assured traction on loose surfaces. An aluminium motor mount and an included Type 540 motor round out a dependable, tunable package.

The body comes finished in white and blue with a transparent cover; sticker application is required, and the included driver figure requires assembly and painting. Measuring 390mm long, 240mm wide and 135mm high, the Thunder Shot (2022) captures the period look and performance with modernised running gear for enjoyable building and driving.
