For enthusiasts who value the golden era of RC, the Wild One returns with authentic looks and updated build quality. The reissued Tamiya Wild One brings back the roll cage and functioning headlamps that echo the original 1985 release, while appealing to both long-time builders and newcomers looking for a characterful two-wheel drive buggy.
The body shell uses rugged yet lightweight polycarbonate to resist impacts while keeping mass low. A driver figure creates a lively cockpit appearance. Front ribbed tyres and chunky block-tread rear tyres give reliable traction and handling when you take the buggy onto mixed off-road surfaces.
Beneath the retro body sits an ABS chassis compatible with current battery formats, including Tamiya Racing Packs and LF battery types. Four independent suspension arms fitted with aluminium oil dampers soak up rough ground, while the sealed gearbox and 3-bevel differential aid stable cornering. Dog bone driveshafts reduce the risk of debris damage.
Whether you are collecting classic models or want a fun off-road runner, the Tamiya Wild One balances period-correct design with practical performance. Its straightforward layout makes maintenance and upgrades easy for the RC hobbyist.
The Tamiya 58525-60A blends vintage character with practical updates, making it a solid pick for collectors and those who want a nostalgic, usable off-road buggy.
