The Tamiya 57861 1/12 RC XB RTR Lunch Box Blue Style revives the 1987 classic with a refreshed blue liveried body. The boxy van design remains true to the original and appeals to model collectors as well as drivers who enjoy vintage RC character.
This Ready-To-Run edition comes with a blue molded ABS body and blue-plated wheels, accented in white for a clean look. The elevated chassis and oversized monster truck tyres keep the iconic profile while adding usable ground clearance.
Under the body the Lunch Box Blue Style uses a 2WD gearbox drivetrain powered by a 540-brushed motor. With independent front suspension and a solid rear axle, the setup offers steady handling while the friction dampers and 115mm tyres help smooth rough sections.
The model is fitted with a Finespec 2.4GHz R/C system and an antennaless receiver for neat installation. A wheelie bar is included to help control wheelstand moves and preserve the chassis during tricks.
For fans of retro RC design, the Lunch Box Blue Style is a practical and fun option that is ready to run. It offers a slice of history with sensible, reliable running gear for regular use.
