(TAM 47330) The Bigwig
The Bigwig is back! This is the 2017 version of the 4WD gimbal buggy that was released to commemorate 10 years of Tamiya R/C models in 1986. It features a number of improvements while largely retaining the classic design of the original. The bodywork is that designed for the 1986 Bigwig by renowned Japanese designer Takuya Yura, still a classic today, and featuring advanced aerodynamics. The updated markings retain the spirit of the original Bigwig and include the Mooncraft logo of Yura's design company.
