Do you have a better picture of the part? Because it looks like a large black square to me...

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Mike, I really had to take a close look at that car. It's very derivative of a Kyosho Optima, the basic chassis design is very close to the original Optima. I'm guessing it's one of those knock-off clones. Someone else on here worked on a Beagle, but that clone is much closer to an Optima in appearance. This one--not so much. The design is practically identical but the individual parts are quite different.mikedealer wrote:saw this on ebay and want to bid on it, but no idea what it is

It's a bluebird baja growler. I've usually see those with a gold chassis. The stock wheels look like the ones found on turbo ultima. I have the body for that...if you pick it up.mikedealer wrote:saw this on ebay and want to bid on it, but no idea what it is

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
I have some of these gears in my collection. They were in a bag with a mrc part# but most of the # is missing. I've checked most Tamiya manuals but can't find one that matches. Thanks in advance!




If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

Edit: and the MR4-mini (no idea on the name) The plastic pulley is not standard for the MX4 I think, but I have only had 2nd hand cars of this series so I could have had a hop-up in it.
