Great story, thank you!

I enjoyed your story. It's always good to reminisce on these things.

Remember it well, great video

You should have a rematch Beetle v Beetle 😂😂😂

Hope you get it running in the future.

Nice story there mate. Loved that shop as a kid.

Awesome dude 👍🏻

Great back story on your first kit. Crazy after all the years what we remember and what gets forgotten.

First!!

Day care center? Let some young kids learn early?

That's very cool, love the Red Bull Audi... Your nephew should be stoked... Great video & look back at some older toy RC's...

Will those shells fit on a Mini Z???? Could resell shell and make a mint.

Giving them away is a great thing. Who knows, years from now, we may see the kid on youtube telling the story of how he got into RC.

Maybe half a dozen to give away for random young kids?

Ha ha ha (or Ho Ho Ho) love the intro 😂😂😂

it looks fun! also looks like they haven't hit Aust yet, none in stock anywhere :\

I recently achieved 30 with a Tamiya 10.5 T sensored brushless motor, TBLE -02S ESC, a 2S Lipo and a Traxxas TQI transmitter / receiver. The gearing is 25/64. Final drive is 6.66:1. I used the TQI because of the very fine control it offers with the Bluetooth connection to my phone. I plan to go with a 29T pinion in the near future. I will also try it with a NHIM battery to see what difference that makes. The TSM assistance on the TQI system really helps keep it going straight with only 4% assist. Do you know what your tire compound is? I think having the proper tires makes a big difference. You have a very scenic "test track"! I am in USA/NJ and have to use a parking lot! The video was fun to watch. Sorry about the stuck gear! (PS What I really want is an Arma Felony!)

Thanking u..cool little buggy.. Hare Krishna

Yes, I did it! I became RC Tamiya Addict's 1,000th subscriber! (You 're welcome.)

This will be my Christmas present 🎁 ☺ Almost at 1k subs, congrats in advance 💪👏

Would have liked Lando to win the title this year.

Love this and great channel. Keep it up mate 👍🏻

4 time world champ!!!!!

Nice! Would love one of these.

wouw only 22mph on the RZ motor that's kinda underwhelming :o that said i have no idea what mine runs :P (it's offroad anyway so if it hits 22mph off road it's probably about to do a quadruple barrel roll :P) but that does make me happy i went with a 13 euro ali express ball bearing'd 17T rather then a RZ at 45-60 bucks, i mean i already have a 64/25T setup already but 27mph at that level of investment would be dissapointing (also on NIMH, LIPO has enough instructions that i'll probably burn the house down :P)

I wish they had picked some other racer than Verstappen. The way he races, he's going to get somebody injured.

Good memories & cool collectible! Face man always gets the ladies 😄👍

Where did you get he Body Shell? What brand?

The steering is not broken, these old cheap rc cars only turn when the van is moving forwards or backwards.

Kinda disappointed.. thought it was a new one. Cool how it has the actual narration, I've recently found the series and I've been watching this..just finished where they go back to Vietnam for Fulbright's daughter.

Shut up fool !! 😉😆 Cool stuff 👍

Very cool!

Very cool! Love it’s got the whole theme song and opener.

Is not ruined. It's a learnt lesson. You can spray it over, mate.

It absolutely called for the A-Team theme 👍

You're supposed to use universal axles with the back diff. I have one in my off it's tits frog and it makes a massive difference in how smooth it spools up. Your out drives on the back diff are going to get chewed up quick.

The body looks amazing! (The one that's not on the M chassis) Great work! The shell you put on the Monster Beetle is weird isn't it? The front end reminds me of the New York Taxi cabs??? Am I wrong? lol - something doesn't quite look right...I guess that's why Tamiya is known for the incredible details of their bodies. That being said though...the body looks fantastic on the Monster Beetle! Weirdly it kinda suits it!

A-team van was a Chevy!

Oh yeah. It's a monster mini. Consider it settled.

Do ykou run NiMH battery? If so how much run time do you get?

The Monster Mini, perfectly ironic! I love it!

That looks mint mate, I know it's not the best rendition of the tamiya mini shell, but it looks awesome on the monster beetle chassis, i think that was a class idea to make it into a monster mini 👌👍 top notch mate

That's awesome, mate. Giving me ideas.....

That isn't a bad body at all! Really like it. With the front valance under the bumper you could look at photos of actual minis and cut it to shape leaving less under the bumper and bringing it in at the edges. Also, with the headlights you could try a gentle heat of a hair drier and press the small creases out. That works quite well. Great job on it, looks cracking.

Oh yes the new body looks way better "fake eye brows" 🤣🤣 i can agree on that

Hi are you using the stock tamiya esc with this 12t motor?

Gotta love a mini! I have the original Monte Carlo Mini on the M01 chassis - it's beat up to hell but I still love it! You did a good job with this one, the second body is definitely so much better than the first. Nice one pal! 😎👍

At least this repro shell doesn’t have e the wipers sloppily molded into the windshield. The super cheap ones on Ali , etc have this…otherwise, they look similar.

Hey man I like it, greetings from North America!

I have an 05 new in box that I really want to put a mini shell on.
