Late 80s was the pinnacle for rc buggies😍 manufacturers put just as much effort into the presentation of their products as they did on the actual product! Brushed motors which you had to look after and early stages of esc’s and batteries!……brilliant times😊

Hi Keith, thanks for the shout-out, and thanks to you, the Top Force is sitting proudly on my shelf. Looking forward to catching up later this year in Sydney, then hopefully down in Melbourne for the Vintage Bash.

"What a time period to live in". Could not have said it better than that Keith! Epic Kits. Congrats my friend.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! 👍🏻

Awesome purchase. I really like the Turbo Rocky and the blister style.

OOoooo..... I love me some vintage Kyosho!! I miss my Turbo Ultima. 🥺

Great haul as always. Yeah those 80's kits were amazing presentation wise. The electronics of the era....not so.

Nothing was better than popping the those original boxes open! 😬😬

Awesome. Love the evo. Can't wait to see it running

Yay! Love to see you adding to the Kyosho stable Keith! Nice buys 👍🏽 I like your idea to rere the custom special. Good way to keep the TOMS the TOMS. Cheers Bud

Just awesome.

Turbo Rocky has to be a rare one . The Rocky platform was an interesting car . Reminds me of a original yokomo dog fighter

Super cool kits! Runner Evo is a win. I look forward to seeing that bad boy cut a few laps.

Nice to see these kits although Kyosho has never really been ‘my bag’. Still cool to see all this stuff though and the effort that went into the presentation when you popped the lid.

Now 1988 was an awesome year! You had the choice of an Avante or the Optima Mid Custom Special. The CS is by far my favorite 4wd from Kyosho. The body design just sets it off! Enjoy the weekend, Keith.

The Turbo Rocky is on my list, I want one too...I had a feeling you were going to bid on that one. Love the box and presentation on that too. Love watching you unbox the classics!

Weekend highlight 😊😊😊

Awesome haul brother! great classics as usual - keeping all us old Vintage dogs drooling!! Thx again for another great vid.

Love to see that Kyosho on yr track.. Thanks Keith. Gauranga

Great video Keith, I am planing someday to get an Optima that is my dream car what one you you say is best for running I didn't even know the custom special was even a thing. and that Top Force is beautiful great find.... Hope to see it on the track soon.. Coffee with Keith complete. Thanks my friend.

Kyosho should make it again. Wish I had the money to buy both top forces.

Hi Keith from Yorkshire England the opel kit is German touring car cool kit 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻there are all cool kits custom special is my favourite

Great stuff! I would love to see Kyosho re-re some of these kits, they have so many kits they could do. The Raiders, the Rocky series and so many others but I guess it probably won't happen. Great additions to the collection!

Awesome!

Awesome mate, like the Custom Special great car!

Awesome vintagness Keith

Very nice. Big Kyosho fan.

What a load of lovely kits! I love the turbo rocky but the Calibra is my favourite. It's a great looking car. I'm lucky to own the Tamiya Cliff Calibra which Gavin built on his channel, it's just a beauty!

Don’t usually listen with headphones and just realised the intro is in surround

Oh Keith, I’m green with envy 😊😊😊awesome kits 😊😊best wishes to you and the family 😊😊

Wow, that custom special is very special and I’ve been on the lookout for a nib for sometime now

Nice one Keith, Japan is an amazing market for RC. some gems if you know where and how to look. Great haul!!

Wow beautiful top force, I remember the car it was a custom special. Ha I knew it.. buyeeeeeeeee bargains.

I wish Tamiya would still do the fancy presentation

Awesome kits was wondering if you ever plan on doing another collection update I know it would be a huge task but would love to see it your collection has become museum quality love for passion for the hobby

Nice additions to your collection Keith! I just missed out on the Mid Custom Special back in around 1990. We set off on a several hour road trip to Mansfield models near Nottingham (UK) without bothering to ring up beforehand having seen it advertised at the best price in Radio Race Car there. When we arrived we found they’d just sold out of the Custom Special but had got the newly released Lazer ZX in so I bought one of those instead but it cost more and meant I couldn’t buy new radio gear. Not sure why we didn’t ring up beforehand to check, my Dad probably thought it would be a good excuse to take me and my brother out for the day regardless of wether it was in stock or not. Long way in a 1100cc Ford Fiesta with no radio though! If ever they re-release the TOMS, Custom Special or Lazer I’ll be ordering one!

Awesome bud.Nice kits...4 new cars,one delivery....BAM!!!

They should make all the optimas again.

Great scores.

That Calibra is super cool! I was tempted with that but passed it because I have the chassis already. I believe it's officially Pureten Ep Spider 4wd. But the design is same as with TF-2. It is lower spec though with friction shocks, alu chassis and no turnbuckles. I have seen a flyer that has this named TF-2, and the one with carbon lower chassis was TF-2 Race Ready or Race Spec and then the TF-2 Type R. Some of the nostalgic series cars came also with this chassis but the lower deck was black and with plastic side pod thingies. I need that in my collection.

You could have them all.😂

I would love to see that top force on the track compared to the db01rrr! Always wanted on to run.

Very cool. Turbo rocky been a while.

Awsome find the custom special 👍 right now i just want kyosho to drop the zx-r thats the daddy for me. Not found a new in box one and i need to experiance the build from new 🤩

Just putting this out there Keith…..maybe you have enough on road cars to justify an on road track???

The turbo Rocky ❤️😊👍❣️

All the rockeys need to be rered.

What motor is in the calibra?

Hello. I wouldn't drive the Evolution. Especially not with the original rims. It still says “Made in Japan”. You can only buy modified cars. The car should be saved. The condition is too good. I don't like the blue dampers.

Sorry fellow, those unboxing are realy gone our of controle, not even you may live until 90 years old you wont have enuff time to use and enjoy all those stuff you have now, this is no more realistic anymore at all. Even the problem you are going to face in the future is to loose the memory on all you got and you will spend a lot of time searshing the items.
