Back in Action: A Retro Off-Roader Returns

Fans of vintage RC will appreciate the faithful reissue of the Wild One, updated for modern builds. The Tamiya Wild One revives the memorable roll cage and working headlights from the mid 80s, offering a nostalgic project that also performs on today's tracks.

Robust styling and practical shell

The polycarbonate body keeps weight down while resisting knocks and scrapes. A sculpted driver figure enhances cabin detail. Narrow front ribs and broader rear block treads deliver predictable traction across loose surfaces commonly found on local tracks.

Chassis tuned for contemporary batteries and shocks

The ABS frame is set up to take modern battery options including Tamiya Racing Packs and LF packs. Independent suspension with aluminium oil dampers smooths out rough terrain, and the sealed gearbox with a 3-bevel differential promotes consistent handling. Dog bone drives gives added protection against small stones and debris.

Collectible appeal with usable performance

Whether you are restoring a period piece or building a fun runner, the Wild One offers a period correct appearance with easy to source parts and upgrade paths for hobbyists.
