The Tamiya Comical Hotshot is a 1/10 scale RC buggy that's ready to bring a smile to your face. This unique and fun-loving model features a lightweight and durable polycarbonate body styled after the legendary Hotshot, with a playful design and vibrant red paint job.

The GF-01CB chassis features a wide stance for superior balance, even during wheelies, and is compatible with a range of hop-up options for further customization. The gear-driven 4WD system provides smooth and reliable power delivery, while the 4-wheel double wishbone suspension with CVA oil dampers ensures a comfortable and controlled ride. The included wheels and tyres complete the Comical Hotshot's eye-catching look and provide excellent grip for off-road adventures.
