Now that, Fil, is how to do an unboxing! Great detail, explanations and of course, plenty of sniffing! Looking at that chassis tub, it looks a lot like the Thunder Dragon tub, do you know if they are the same? And of course, they are definitely stickers, not dee-cals!!! 😅 Lovin this re-re kit already, it might just have to go on my long "I want" list! Great job mate, stay excellent! 😎👊👍

Thanks Mark! I think I'm going to have to dedicate an entire episode to sniffing tires, boxes, bodies, and the like... I'm going down a dark path, pal. Consider this a cry for help! Lol! 🤣🤣🤣 And you're right about the chassis. It's definitely in the Thunder Dragon/Terra Scorcher family. I'm not sure if they're 100% the same, but certainly very close. Thanks for the great comment, my friend. Talk soon! 👊🏼🍻

I remember back in high-school, my neighbor (then in his early 40's) saw me playing with my Midnight Pumpkin all the time. He took interest in RC and ended up buying a USA-1 Nitro. Christmas day I was at his place helping him build it. What an awesome memory! Those big tires, dual shocks, it was massive! Thanks for sharing your story! 👊🏼

So want to get this for my collection too. It will go great with my Boomerang & Thunder Dragon. Running a brushless 10.5T motor in my Thunder Dragon and holding up to the torture no problem. For anyone who wants to customize a body, Team Blue Groove sells replacement Lexan Super Sabre body & wing. Nothing wrong with having a spare body along with MCI racing custom decals. If you want cut out stickers, need to get Kyosho. ;)

Highly entertaining unboxing Fil! 😂 Definitely relate to the box art/model shop thing.... Infact I HAVE to have the box of every car I own, I'm totally OCD about it, and have stacked them all on display in my music room, just like the model shops used to display them! Loving the multiple toots.... I could almost smell that combination of paint, plastic and rubber-- delightful! An absolute classic from the golden era there mate, don't know why but it never was as popular as the boomerang back in the eighties.... maybe people didn't like the futuristic body that was heavily influenced by all the space Sci fi that was popular back then. Funny thing is 37 years down the line and the body still looks futuristic, except in a retro way.... which is a complete contradiction in terms?! You are indeed correct regarding those gearbox's, they are bombproof, and I've seen many booma's running some hot brushless set ups! Looking forward to seeing this project progress, and seeing the running video..... you have your work cut out as you have set the bar extremely high with your last few running videos! By the way, we conquered those pesky sticker pirates and took delivery of your awesome stickers this week, to which I thank you greatly! 🙏 😊 Loving the shiny one to, they will get pride of place on project tube box once we finally start it. Sorry dude, always intend to drop a short comment..... but end up writing an essay! 😂 👍 👍 👍

Haha, all good brother, it's always so great to hear from you. I'm happy to hear the stickers made it past the pirates this time. I can't wait to see the sticker compilation when she's ready for presentation. 👊🏼😎 As for the Super Sabre, yeah that body sure is something, isn't it? Sharp angles, a big spoiler, cab-forward design, it's the 80's interpretation of 2020 cars, but the designers were high on aquanet hairspray and hopped up on Pepsi Clear. Lol! What a beauty!!! 🤩🤩🤩 Hope you're having a great weekend, pal. Cheers! 🍻

Tamiya box art is a thing of beauty and so is the body, some I like painted but good the Squash van did not. You are right, put the new ESC in as they are a slightly better version of the 1060wp it can take a lower turn motor. I'm lucky the company I use have had a ESC option for a long time and always Hobbywing as I did not like the Tamiya 02 ESC setup. I have a Boomerang so the same and a Thunder Dragon so I kind of like the Dragon a little better.

sniff...sniff..sniff...ahhhh..wish i didn't have a cold to enjoy smellavision once it is finally invented. great unboxing! was wondering if you have ever used a Traxxas Titan 12T in one of your builds? I have a spare one in good order so perhaps I might put it in my Subaru Brat when I"m ready to build it. Also, the Brat kit came with both the hard plastic and lexan bodies along with an ESC so it's a good bang for the buck if you can get one. cheers and see you in the next vid!

You need to buy a 2023 Super Sabre, the smell of paint and tires will clear up those sinuses in no time! Hahaha! I don't think I ever have used the Traxxas 12T in any builds... I'm thinking back, and I think that's a motor that's eluded me all these years. It'll get the Brat moving, I'm sure! -- I bought one a few years ago, with the hard blue body and spare lexan one. The blue body took me longer to paint all the details (lights, trim, etc...) than a lexan body would, lol! 😆👊🏼

Growing up in N. Ireland in the late 60's and early 70's I watched 'Whirly Birds' and 'Skippy the Bush Kangeroo' on a black n white telly.😂 Luckily that had no effect on my first forays into RC, which were the original Sand Rover followed by the Super Champ. You had to be commited to the hobby back then because swapping out the 380 mabuchi for a 540 in the Sand Rover meant that your run time dropped from about 15 minutes to 5, and gear's in the open top gearbox lasted little longer. The 5cell NiCd took 18hrs to charge for those 5 mins of ecstacy. Commited? I should have been! 🤪🤣 Subaru and Yamaha have been my full size vehicles of choice for years, so perhaps Tamiya have been more of an influence on me than I've realized. If it ain't Jap, it's scrap! ☺️👍
