Tamiya 58354-60A Reimagined Classic Buggy

The Tamiya 58354-60A brings back the charm of the original 2WD Frog while adding thoughtful upgrades for todays off-road hobbyist. This electric kit blends vintage styling with practical improvements that appeal to racers and collectors alike. Read on to see what sets this reissue apart.

Updated Dampers and Reinforced Drivetrain

The model features a side-mounted aluminium damper arrangement inspired by Tamiya TRF shock layouts, delivering firmer control over rough terrain and more consistent handling. The dog-bone style drive shafts have been refined and fitted with protective rubber boots to improve longevity and reduce wear under demanding use.

Classic Space Frame with Modern Details

Keeping the original spirit, this kit uses an ABS resin space frame reminiscent of vintage buggies. Horizontally mounted oil dampers and an inboard spring front suspension preserve the old-school geometry while working smoothly with the updated components.

Tread Pattern and Authentic Wheel Finish

Equipped with straight ribbed front tyres and high-grip spiked rear tyres, the Frog is set up for varied off-road surfaces. The realistic three-piece wheels add visual accuracy and make the model look at home on display as well as on the track.
