The Tamiya Subaru Brat re-release is a tribute to a beloved 1970s export that became a hit in the U.S. market. Originally released as an RC model in 1983, this reissue of the Subaru Brat brings back the charm of the classic little truck with modern updates. This 1/10 scale assembly kit comes with both a highly detailed resin body for display and a lightweight polycarbonate body for racing, giving RC enthusiasts the best of both worlds. With upgraded internal components and a nostalgic driver figure, this kit perfectly blends vintage style with improved performance.
