Icon Reborn: Tamiya Sand Scorcher 2010 Expert Built

If you know Tamiya history, the Sand Scorcher is a landmark model. The 2010 Expert Built release keeps the original silhouette and off-road attitude while adding modern durability and assembly quality for collectors and drivers alike.

Homage to a Classic Off-Roader

The Sand Scorcher 2010 preserves the distinctive styling that made it memorable, from the ribbed front tyres to the paddle rear tyres. This 1/10 scale edition reproduces the look and stance of the vintage model with attention to period-correct details.

Sturdy FRP Chassis and Responsive Suspension

The core of this build is a 2mm FRP plate chassis reinforced with an aluminium plate for added strength. The car uses a 4-wheel independent layout with front double trailing arms and rear swing axles, supported by die-cast suspension arms and oil dampers to handle varied terrain.

Practical Modern Upgrades

Performance touches include full ball bearings to reduce friction and a clear plastic electronics box that secures the battery and electronics while keeping them accessible. Wheels are 3-piece centre-lock for a period-correct appearance with solid reliability.

Whether you are restoring a retro collection or looking for a distinctive off-road model to run, the Sand Scorcher 2010 Expert Built balances vintage charm with practical modern components.

Yes, the electronics compartment can accept common RC battery packs; check dimensions and secure connections when using LiPo cells.
The chassis accepts a range of standard electric drive components, so upgrading motor and gearing for more speed or torque is straightforward for those comfortable with installations.
The molded body and easily accessible mounting points make minor repairs simple; replacement shells or panels are also commonly available from parts suppliers.
