I got this SWEET Tamiya M-04 Beetle for Christmas and I built it yesterday. I've been working on the body and cosmetics and all it's waiting for now are the racing decals. It's fully ball-raced and has Tamiya Hornet front tires all around.

You are lucky to have a family that supports your affliction.


This is a great picture:

Awesome paint scheme! Great tires and the wheel detail is superb. Good job, once again.

I love the detail on these bodies.

It seems to be a common paint scheme with these. Here's another on I found but with the colors situated differently.

I took it to the baseball diamond this afternoon, but it was still a little soggy from all the snow that has been melting. Most of the pics are a bit blurry, and only a couple turned out okay. I also started on the light bar.

I finished the light bar. I still need to find some number decals for the doors.


Lights were cut off of my old Clodbuster light bar.

Light bar painted red.
