Here is my shelf queen Tokyo Marui Samurai. It's very nice car with his 3 differential. It's possible to choice if run in 2wd or 4wd mode.

I own also the TM Ninja e Shogun in still kit.

The Lazer ZX has no relations with Samurai but it is always a nice see :D

Awesome looking buggy, two of my buddies had these way back when i had a Hotshot, real good to look at, but terrible to run on a constant basis, so fiddly and fragile.
Great pics, and fantastic to see that boxart again!

What a stunning example you have there. I am a very big fan of the Marui Samurai and have owned a really great runner myself.

Believe it or not these cars actually drive very well even with the kit tyres. Once ball raced and built properly they make a very fun car for the track.

Here's mine in action to help you with a little extra inspiration-

nice collection of Marui you have there, just wondering the color of the body frame, is it silver or yellow? :)

I agree, great video. But did you damage your drivetrain with a brushless setup?

I had the ninja........ worked at richmond model shop so sort of had to have everything, build it, race it, sell it........ looked AWSOME, but not the best on track from memory? although 22 years ago, its vey hazey a memory! lolol.........

The chain drive was awsome, noisy and not very efficient, but the samuri was a great change to the shaft and belts........

I love this vintage stuff................... :D:D:thumbsup::thumbsup::D:D
