Sand Scorcher rerelease

Why do they change things on the rerlease models? There is no rear glass in the kit.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the original did either.

As far as I know, only the Monster Beetle & Blitzer Beetle versions of the body had complete glass.

I think it may have been due to the design of the roof mounted rear body clip on the 'Scorcher.

Projects and shelfers:
Late Edinger, RC10B2, Dual Sport, GT, Kyosho Turbo Ultima, Triumph, Tamiya Sand Scorcher, Blackfoot/Monster Beetle, '67 Beetle, Nikko Rhino, Traxxas Fiero, Slash, Hand-built Dune Buggy..all on here somewhere...

I second that - I don't think it had rear glass because you need to be able to reach in and release the rear clip that goes on the roll bar.

Yes the rear was also open on the original version.

So what does everyone think will be the next re-re. I'm hoping for a FOX or WILD ONE.

Last post

So, is there any word on what may possibly come next?

Ranger.... As long as Tamiya can get the Ford licence!
then hopefully SC!

Just wondering what the pros cons are, differences between the original and re release?

I really want one but need to know about what I should look for in a used one.

Is the motor a 1 off or is someone producing that?

It was a lucky eBay find. From what I gather the guy who pit it together made a few of them and sold them off quite a number of years ago, and this was the last one he had held on to.... and then...
