Traxxas TRX-4 Chevy Blazer trail truck

Coming soon from Traxxas is the TRX-4 based Chevrolet Blazer RTR 4WD trail truck. Introduced in 1969, the Chevrolet Blazer was General Motors’ two-door entry into the booming sport utility market. Its shorter wheelbase and capable suspension instantly made it a favourite in the 4×4 world, earning the love of enthusiasts and collectors. Traxxas donors the rich history of the Blazer with this beautifully detailed reproduction of the 1979 K5 Blazer built on the proven TRX-4 chassis. Features include replica Rally wheels, a highly detailed chrome grill, and a full complement of scale details. Other details of the TRX-4 chassis include heavy duty steel frame rails, adjustable wheelbase, moulded wire retainers, a dual battery tray, floor pans, alloy shocks and heavy-duty steel links.

Tamiya Toyota 4×4 Mountain Rider pick-up kit

Coming in April is Tamiya‘s Toyota 4×4 Mountain Rider pick-up truck kit. It recreates the Toyota Hilux, a pick-up truck which has enjoyed enduring popularity in the U.S., Japan and beyond.
