Tamiya has began distributing the Comical FROG on the chassis WR-02CB, with a body inspired by the famous original buggy from the 1983. The model features a pre-assembled gearbox with motor already attached to save time in the assembly process. Long suspension arms and CVA oil dampers make for excellent off-road performance, while under guard and side guards give great protection.
A rear wheelie bar helps support the model when it leans back, maintaining a fun wheels-in-the air stance as the model plunges forward. Green and white 2-piece wheels are joined by bubble tires (front: ribbed, rear: round block) for a fun look and drive.
