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.

Wedge Shape Body
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
