Tamiya 1/10 Hotshot 4x4 Off-Road Buggy Kit

Description:

When it debuted in 1985, the Hotshot made an immediate impact as Tamiya’s first shaft-driven 4WD R/C buggy, boasting an aggressive body style and a low center of gravity. Its distinctive 3-piece chassis incorporated several forward-thinking features for its time, including front and rear mono-shock oil dampers, a 4-wheel double wishbone suspension with stabilizers, and fully enclosed gearboxes equipped with thrust ball bearings and differential gears. A wide selection of dedicated option parts soon followed, cementing the Hotshot as a dream machine for young enthusiasts of the era. After years of anticipation, Tamiya has revived this iconic model so fans can relive the excitement of their early R/C experiences.

For the re-release, Tamiya updated many components to modern standards while preserving the spirit and appearance of the original. The front and rear double wishbone suspension and adjustable mono-shock dampers remain, but the drivetrain now uses modern dog bone-style propeller shafts for improved durability. The oil dampers have also been updated to contemporary diaphragm-type units. Additionally, since today’s ESCs eliminate the need for the original rear aluminum heat sink, a dummy version is included to maintain the Hotshot’s classic silhouette. Take this refreshed Hotshot for a run and compare it with modern R/C buggies to truly appreciate how far the hobby has evolved over the decades.

Small in size
Color: Grey
Very small, picture makes it look much larger than it is. Seemed more appropriate for a cat, and 6 month puppy figured it out in under 1 min. Not very challenging.

Extremely good quality. Soft ... SIZE UP if you want a looser fit. It is not "form fitting, or snug, but no extra. I am 5'5 190# 60 years old. This ... an XL will go to my daughter. I will be getting another 1-2 sizes up. We'll worth it!

Durable and engaging!!!
Color: Blue Green Orange
This has been a game changer! My dog all of a sudden started gently chewing on a couple of my shoes while I was at work. I set this out right before I leave for work. My shoes have been safe ever since!!!

My dog LOVES this!
Color: Blue Green Orange
My dog LOVES this thing! It keeps her busy for a good 45 minutes if she gets distracted, we use it to hide her food because she swallows it whole when we feed her in a bowl. So this has slowed her eating wayyyy down and has helped immensely in keeping her occupied. The quality is nice, i love that it’s felt, BUT it seems like if she scratches at it enough, the strings of the fabric come out and feels fuzzy. I’m not sure how to describe it but it looks like it might experience some pretty bad ware and tear after a while. I love how easy it is to set up, and the variety of folds help the food get stuck so that my dog can sniff and dig her way around. Very nice toy set up!

Great enrichment activity for dogs!
Color: Blue Green Orange, Color: Blue Green Orange
This mat provides excellent enrichment time for scent hounds. Our mini dachshund puppy loves finding treats hidden in the mat. It is also a very affordable option. Our puppy likes to play and sleep on it even when there aren’t treats in it. If your dog is an aggressive or obsessive chewer, I would only leave out when treats or food are hidden inside and then pick up because it will get damaged.
