The Tamiya Hotshot II RC Buggy is a stunning reimagining of a legendary off-road racer that first hit the dirt in 1987. This updated 1/10 scale kit captures the spirit of the original 4WD racing powerhouse while incorporating modern refinements to keep it competitive on modern tracks. With its low-slung polycarbonate body and aggressive black finish, this buggy is the real deal for enthusiasts who want to experience the golden era of RC with the reliability of current engineering.

Building this vintage icon is a breeze because the body shell arrives pre-cut and pre-painted, allowing you to focus on the mechanical satisfaction of the assembly. The unique suspension layout, featuring a horizontal mono-shock at the front and dual independent dampers at the rear, provides a driving feel that is both responsive and predictable. This versatile kit is suitable for any skill level as it offers a rewarding build experience for newcomers and a perfect canvas for experienced hobbyists looking to add high-tier OEM or aftermarket upgrades.

Wedge Shape Body

The body's distinctive wedge shape, a careful recreation of the iconic Hot Shot design, gives the buggy a classic and aggressive look. A dummy antenna can be attached to the right side for added nostalgic goodness.

A Touch of Colour

The bright red front suspension uprights provide a striking contrast to the all-black body, adding a vibrant accent and a touch of racing flair.

Horizontal Shocks

The front suspension is designed for peak off road performance, featuring a mono shock setup with a horizontally mounted CVA oil filled shock absorber and stabiliser bar for precise handling and reduced body roll.

Scale Details

The Hotshot boasts realistic details, such as the metal roof with air intake and an included driver figure, improve the overall build experience and create a incredible scale vehicle.

Double Wishbone Suspension

The rear suspension is engineered for both performance and durability. Double wishbones with H-arms provide precise control, while independent CVA oil shocks on each wheel deliver a smooth and responsive ride over bumps and jumps.

High Grip Wheels

The car's wheels and tyres are designed with both performance and aesthetics in mind. The dish wheels, with their different front and rear widths, are fitted with high-grip oval block tyres for optimal traction and a distinctive look.

Strong Rear Wing

The rear wing is designed for both style and function. Made from durable polycarbonate and pre-painted in black, it provides aerodynamic stability and enhances the car's overall appearance.
