Heritage Reissue: Buggy Champ 2009 by Tamiya

The Tamiya 58441_2 Buggy Champ 2009 revives a historic 1979 design with careful attention to original lines. This reissue commemorates the model's 30th anniversary and preserves the signature silhouette while improving robustness where it counts. The classic front double trailing arm layout and rear torsion arrangement deliver the characteristic feel of the era.

Frame and Suspension Construction

The design retains the original chassis concept using a 2mm FRP main plate strengthened with a duralumin reinforcement plate. Die-cast front and rear suspension arms have been updated for longevity, a clear waterproof electronics case is included, and full ball bearings are supplied to reduce drivetrain friction.

Finish, Body and Motor

The kit features a white plastic body shell that is easy to prep and paint for custom liveries. The reproduction blister pack packaging echoes the vintage release, and the included type 540 motor means the mechanical parts are ready for installation and testing on dirt and grass tracks.
