Tamiya is thrilled to announce the re-release of the Hotshot II, a 4WD buggy that first made waves back in 1987. This revamp brings a fresh take on a classic, following the lineage of Tamiya's groundbreaking 4WD buggies: the original Hotshot of 1985 and the Supershot of 1986.
The Hotshot II is known for its lightweight design thanks to the use of plastic parts, and comes with a pre-painted black body shell.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
