NEWS FLASH!! Towards the end of the first day of the Expo, I was approached by the RCX manager with something unexpected. MR. TAMIYA himself was present on the show floor. I was told he stood about 50 feet from my Bruiser. He had to have seen it. Not sure if he will return the next day. My fingers are crossed. And I thought meeting and getting a picture taken with Catherine Bach (original Daisy Duke from the Dukes of Hazard) was exciting, this takes the crown.

I just had to look again, this is so amazing Makes me want to build a 1:1 of a Tamiya which is weird because I used to restore real cars and now just do models to save space and money but making real cars that look like models seems like a great thing to do

Normally I've been kinda ho hum about the box art on the Bruiser but when doing a real one it wouldn't work any other way and this thing is amazing simply amamzing ammount of time and passion for Tamiya sitting there. Now if only the guy with the 1:1 Sand Scorcher was there to. I guess its time to build a Clod Buster 1:1 now

Looks great, too bad Tamiya couldn't be next to you with a BED FULL OF BRUISERS in your truck to make an over the top display. I am guessing it is a bit too late to call over to TamiyaUSA to fill that bed up with their latest re re kit??? Perhaps just empty boxes in the least???

DADSDUC748  28/04/2012 04:24:39
Thanks Guys. We've been approached by a gentleman from totalcar.hu to do an interview and a story of my Bruiser for a Hungarian RC magazine. Pretty Kool.
