Tamiya 58666 Comical Hornet Classic Rebuilt WR-02CB Dual Star Edition  [58666]

Hornet Tradition Meets Modern Chassis

The Comical Hornet 58666 revives the memorable Hornet profile with contemporary engineering from Tamiya. Using the WR-02 platform, this kit preserves the nostalgic bodywork while introducing a chassis layout that supports easy setup and upgrades.

Chassis Layout Optimised for Play and Control

The WR-02 monocoque provides a sturdy base and an inline battery position that keeps weight centred. The double wishbone suspension and two-piece steering tie-rod give responsive steering and predictable behaviour over rough surfaces.

Authentic Styling with Practical Fitments

The body features a throwback sticker scheme and pairs with orange and white two-piece wheels and bubble tyres for mixed-surface grip. Headlight housings are included to accept 5mm LEDs sold separately for those who want functioning lights.

Build Quality and Aftermarket Potential

Assembly is satisfying and the helmeted driver adds personality. With several damper mounting points, the suspension can be tuned to suit smoother tracks or looser terrain, making the kit adaptable for different running styles.

Tamiya 58666 Comical Hornet mixes period-correct aesthetics with a chassis that invites setup and upgrades, ideal for modelers who value both looks and handling.
