Tamiya has been known for over 3 decades for reproducing the most beautiful fastest and most popular cars as models. Thus already 30 years ago the legendary TAMIYA Sand Scorcher in 1/10th scale was dedicated to the Volkswagen Beetle. In 2009 for the 30th anniversary a Tamiya fan turned the tables and recreated the Sand Scorcher in 1:1 scale. This unusual “replica” was exhibited at the 2010 Toy Fair. The anniversary model from Tamiya is offered as a kit as it was 30 years ago. The technical basis corresponds to the original model but there were some innovations for the Sand Scorcher 2010 such as new wishbones wheel carriers and a modern electronic speed controller. Other components have been reinforced to provide contemporary stability for the 40 cm long model. Standard equipment includes a robust fiberglass chassis plate an extensive ball bearing set a robust electric motor and oil pressure shock absorbers. In the design of the plastic body everything remains the same this will certainly please not only nostalgics.
