Tamiya 58673 Comical Frog Retro Reissue 1/10 WR-02CB Kit  [58673]

Heritage Reborn: Tamiya 58673 Comical FROG on WR-02CB

The Comical FROG is a nod to the iconic FROG that introduced many to kit building, updated here for modern hobbyists. The model sits on the adaptable WR-02CB chassis to combine old-school looks with usable performance characteristics.

Advantages of the WR-02CB Chassis

The WR-02CB platform is engineered to cope with both smooth surfaces and rougher ground, letting you enjoy dramatic wheelstands while retaining predictable steering. A pre-assembled gearbox fitted with a Type 540 motor simplifies construction. Long suspension arms and CVA oil dampers smooth out impacts, while under and side guards protect vulnerable areas. The rear wheelie bar helps keep the car controllable when lifting the nose.

Character and Control

Visually the Comical FROG stands out with green and white two-piece wheels and ribbed front tyres matched to rounded block rear bubble tyres. These choices provide the quirky look of the original plus enhanced traction and handling for modern driving.

For anyone after a mix of classic styling and run-ready features, the Comical FROG is easy to recommend. It is robust enough for regular use and simple to service between sessions.
