Nice kit Freddy. So many cool parts. This frame part is the servo mount. Yes, that're bushings. You definitively have to replace them. They're just plastic not nylon made. Have fun with the build. There're so many tricky tips it it guarateeing you a ton of video contend.
Cool Dirk! Thanks for the info. I was surprised to see that the bushings were just parts on a parts tree! So thanks for confirming my thoughts were correct. Yikes...I'll definitely be upgrading to ball bearings that's for sure. It will be awhile before I can get to this one but I'll keep you posted. I'm definitely excited to do something a little different and you can't get any more different than a Dancing Rider lol
It is a really cool looking version of it. By the time I went and looked they were out of stock already. I will enjoy you building yours up instead! I am glad you were able to get one! Not any easy thing to do with so many folks trying to nab one!
Agree with you 100%! Sorry you missed this one. It was a fluke that I saw the launch video and as I never seem to get in on these opportunities I took the plunge asap. Was so happy to find out that I got in on this. They were sold out only 4 days after the launch I believe. AND I was super surprised I got a low number!! This wasn’t in the rotation originally so it might be a bit before I get to building this one. Maybe I’ll do a poll just for fun and see what people might like to see next. Thanks for stopping by as always!
This one looks cool Freddy! It may hold some value being the very limited production and your low #29. I'd almost be tempted to not even open it but that also takes away from the fun! LOL
Looks really nice Freddy! I would probably frame the Tamico sheet and put it up on the wall,it wouldnt surprise me if it will be worth a fortune in the future 😉anyway thanks for sharing and have a great week!🙂
Thanks Peter! Funny you should say that but I was actually thinking of doing just that. Not that I think it will be worth anything lol...but it would be a cool momento for years to come. If you want to keep it from fading...maybe it should be laminated first?
@@stevenzacharakis it doesn’t look like a digital print. Not sure I can tell. Please let me know when you get yours. I’m curious now. Also if you do frame it what’s the best way to do that to protect it?
Hello FastFreddy, I have a lot of catching up to your build series. You got in on the first 30, which is pretty cool. You defiantly have a collectors item, congrats for being a few to receive this limited edition of the Dancing Rider Tamico.👌👌👍
Hi Al! I was shocked when mine arrived and the number was so low! Have to say I'm pretty stoked that I managed to get in on this one. On another note...I'd be honoured to have you as part of my RUclips project. If you'd like to participate I just need a high quality jpeg of your logo and some stickers if you wouldn't mind sending me some? Happy to send you some of mine too?
@@FastFreddyRC Hello Freddy, I am the one who would be honored to part of your RUclips project. I have two sets of stickers trying to get one more set (clear). I will send you a few of what I have now and when I get the clear one I will send that to you as well, if you would like to have it. I will go through my folders tonight and send you my channel sticker tomorrow sometime. I would like to get a couple of yours as well. Thank you for inviting me to be a part of your RUclips project. I have plans to get the Squash Van (after Christmas Holiday) Take care and best wishes to you and your family
Cool! I really like the look of the Dual Rider! - And I would agree with you...the colour combination they picked for this one I think really works well.
Hi Brad! Yes I have!! It’s seems like it could be pretty cool! I posted a couple shots under my community tab but more updated details are coming out! I do like the Supra body.
Cool! What number did you get?! And yes...already sold out. I put out a video a few days after the launch and at that point over 200 had already been sold...it wasn't long after that that they were all gone. It's hard to know what will happen with this one...I'm being told that this might be worth something in the future so the question is build it or keep it NIB. It's a tough question and even tougher answer! :)
@@FastFreddyRC I got number 183. I am surprised I got one. I usually miss out on these limited editions. I already have a Dancing Rider that is silver so I think I will keep mine new in the box. I think Tamiya has discontinued the Dancing Rider as well. Thoughts?
@@alfredyost7972 cool!! So you were one of the first 200! I usually miss these opportunities too so I’m happy to have got in on this one. If you already have a silver one then yes…I think it would be smart to keep this one NIB. It’s been mentioned to me that this one actually might be valuable in years to come. Hard to know but if you already have one to run you might want to keep it boxed :)
I didn’t! Interesting. I do know they have an adapter, that actually comes with it in Japan, that lets you use 4 AA batteries to run the trike. But as to LIPO…I’m not a fan. I get they’re more powerful but unless you really know what you’re doing they can also be extremely dangerous. Even avid LIPO users will say the same thing so depending on your commitment to proper battery storage/discharging/charging procedures LIPO can open a whole can of worms over safety.
@@FastFreddyRC I agree, that LIPO batteries can be more dangerous. I had 2 Venom LIPO batteries, I did not know what I was doing. I treated them badly because I did not know how care for them properly. They never started a fire or anything. Had them for seven years. They finally started to puff up. This was my fault. I got rid of them. I now know how to care for LIPO batteries. It is not hard you just need a good charger. Thoughts?
@@FastFreddyRC Is it weird to say that i'm scared to build one.... i wanted one for the shelf and one NIB.... but i'm in doubt now. 😢 I didn't even open them yet.
Lol i really don't know. Some people are saying this could be worth something in the future but I would think if you've bought two, one might as well be built as there's no telling what could happen in the future. @@koenallard

So want one Fred, That is awesome!!!! Dirks build was the first one I saw..
Thanks Paul! Super stoked I was able to get in on this before they disappeared!

Yeah me too! Something quite different that's for sure!

cool kit and unboxing
Thanks Duke! I'm pretty impressed with the look that's for sure. It's a weird one but this body/decal combination I think will be a winner.
This one looks cool Freddy! It may hold some value being the very limited production and your low #29. I'd almost be tempted to not even open it but that also takes away from the fun! LOL
I agree with you!! And you might be right in terms of value…so tough to know what to do! Lol I really want to build it but…
I've never used a motorcycle machine before, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it rides.😀👍
Neither have I! This will be a very unique build as I've never built anything like this before so I'll be curious to see how it all works.
@@FastFreddyRC I'm looking forward to it
Awesome. Great looking kit!
Yeah I think it looks great too! Did you get yours yet? I was shocked how low the number was so I'm happy with 29/333! :)
Should be delivered today.
Awesome! Mine arrived much earlier than I was expecting. @@EMPTYPOCKETSRC

@@FastFreddyRC depends if it's been offset printed or digitally printed. Does it smell of ink? When I get mine I might be able to tell

@@stevenzacharakis definitely!
Thanks for opening yours.
Life's too short hehe.
I'm still waiting for mine.
Looks beautiful.

I like the color combo they went with in the dancing rider. I have the Dual rider getting ready to be built over the winter.
Cool! I really like the look of the Dual Rider! - And I would agree with you...the colour combination they picked for this one I think really works well.
Have you heard about the bt01 from tamiya that's coming out?
Hi Brad! Yes I have!! It’s seems like it could be pretty cool! I posted a couple shots under my community tab but more updated details are coming out! I do like the Supra body.
Well mine have finally arrived. Currently in my neighbours house as he took the package today. I had to also pay customs charges!
Sweet!! When you get them let me know the numbers you got! Too bad about the customs charges…where are you? I’m in Canada and there weren’t any here.
Will do. My neighbour is still asleep and he signed for it! I’m in the UK.
My mate in the UK for number 241
@@Voo4530ah! Yeah looks like all packages to the uk get slapped with extra charges unfortunately.
