WOW! I have never been a fan of The Hot Trick Stuff, but this car has to be one of the nicest vintage rides I have ever seen. VERY NICE WORK, Emerson! 8) 8) 8)

Thanks Justin!
Actually, we just done the re-design for the lexan body, decal & front bumper. The buggy looks perfect now. All of these will be released in mid Jan,2010. 8)

Too early to know 'bormac', too late to know 'mrlexan', just in time to know 'murphy3428'.

Don't take this the wrong way but to me that body makes the vintage Hotshot look a little too modern. It kind of looks like a modernized Grasshopper body with a Hornet wing.

Also are you planning on cloning any other of the Hot Trick kits or producing other rims?

Keep up the awesome work! Image

Looks a bit like a turbo optima shell to me. Cool

Not so hot on the body being peirced by the shocks but I guess it's part of the concept

Thanks for the comment. Actually we are still following the old design for the body. And the painting is just for example, you can still paint it in any style you like.

We will soon release Red Ultima(Base on RB5) & Red Frog conversion kits. 8)

rb5 ? lovely: smart not to stick with vintage models only. Maybe you can make the parts compatible with the much cheaper almost clones of Ansman, Kawada and (oops forgot the name again).

Another product idea: 2.2 front wheels that match your rears for the 4mm axle of the old ultima ...
I would settle for the old hot trick axles that let you mount tamiya wheels too; if you make the frog front wheels 2.2 ;)
