The Tamiya Midnight Pumpkin X-SA captures the classic profile of older models while delivering a largely pre-assembled package. It is aimed at hobbyists who favour immediate driving enjoyment over a time-consuming build, combining vintage looks with modern convenience.
At 1/12 scale the Midnight Pumpkin X-SA is supplied with a colourful pre-painted body and factory-applied stickers. The hard-wearing styrene shell is complemented by a pre-assembled chassis that includes the TEU-105BK ESC, leaving only the essentials to fit before running.
The two-wheel-drive configuration ensures controllable power delivery and accessible handling. The box-type frame features a front swing arm independent suspension and a rear rolling rigid arrangement to manage mixed terrain. The 115mm semi-pneumatic tyres on yellow wheels are aimed at longevity and consistent traction.
Equipped with a rear wheelie bar the car offers a touch of stunt potential while limiting over-rotation on hard launches. Gentle throttle modulation will produce entertaining wheelies without sacrificing overall stability.
The Tamiya Midnight Pumpkin X-SA is well suited to enthusiasts who appreciate retro design with minimal assembly. Its ready state and robust parts make it a reliable option for weekend runs and casual practice.
