Kyosho to re-release the 1980’s Scorpion 2WD buggy

German news platform RC-News.de report that Kyosho is planning to re-release the iconic 1982 Scorpion 2WD buggy. Designed by Akira Kogawa, who was also responsible for the Kyosho Beetle, Tomahawk and Optima, the buggy marked the beginning of Kyosho’s successful line of 2WD buggies that later became the Ultima, a kit that won the 1987 World Championships in the hands of Joel “Magic” Johnson. It is understood that the re-release Scorpion buggy will be on show at this year’s Shizuoka Hobby Show that will kick-off at the 15th of May. We bring you more information on the kit as soon as they become available.
