Buggy Champ Heritage Reissued in Silver

Few models carry the same cult status in RC as the Buggy Champ. First launched in 1979, the Tamiya Buggy Champ 84187 returned in 2009 as a Silver Edition that blends vintage lines with practical modern upgrades. The silver finish gives this classic a refreshed look while preserving its original silhouette.

Classic Appearance with a Reinforced Chassis

The Tamiya Buggy Champ 84187 uses a 1/10 scale layout built on a 2mm thick FRP plate with aluminium reinforcement to handle rough terrain. Its front double trailing arm setup and rear torsion bars deliver predictable handling and resilience during bumpy runs.

Focus on Traction and Reliability

Equipped with full ball bearings to cut friction and semi-pneumatic tyres with block tread for grip, this kit balances durability and performance. Two gear ratio options, 4.6:1 or 3.7:1, let you tune acceleration versus top speed depending on track conditions.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Length: 400mm
  • Width: 210mm
  • Height: 150mm
  • Wheelbase: 250mm
  • Body: Silver painted
  • Suspension: 4-wheel independent with oil dampers
  • Chassis: 2mm thick FRP with aluminum reinforcement
  • Gear Ratios: 4.6:1 or 3.7:1

This Silver Edition of the Buggy Champ is well suited to both collectors chasing a period-correct rebuild and hobbyists who want a tough 2WD platform to run on dirt or grass.

Expect a few evenings of careful work if you are familiar with kits; new builders should allow extra time to read instructions and test-fit parts.
The block tread excels on loose dirt, packed trails and short grass. For hardpack or asphalt, consider swapping to a different tyre compound.
Many spares and hop-ups remain available from specialist suppliers, making maintenance and restoration straightforward.
A brushless motor can be fitted, but check pinion spacing and choose an ESC that matches the motor and battery voltage to avoid gear or drivetrain strain.
