Playful retro styling on a modern WR-02CB platform

The Tamiya 57909 XB Comical Hornet combines classic Hornet character with the dependable WR-02CB chassis. This 1/10 scale RTR arrives pre-painted and set up so collectors and club drivers can start running right away, enjoying a fun, compact driving experience.

Classic looks with practical updates

Longtime Tamiya fans will spot the Hornet cues in the bodywork, while the Comical proportions add a lighthearted twist. Mounted on the WR-02CB, the body benefits from improved fit and clearance compared to older mounts, giving a neat balance of nostalgia and usability.

Chassis behavior and traction on varied surfaces

The WR-02CB chassis gives a stable, balanced feel that suits casual bashing and trick driving. With 2WD and grippy tyres, the model holds well on packed dirt and smooth tarmac, and the included wheelie bar helps tame dramatic wheelstands during punchy runs.

Easy to use right out of the box

As a ready-to-run model, the Comical Hornet needs minimal setup. The kit comes with a pre-installed 2.4GHz radio system and a pre-painted body, so you only need a battery pack and charger to get moving.
