Return of a Classic: Tamiya Buggy Champ 2009

The Tamiya 58441_2 Buggy Champ 2009 brings back the iconic 1979 buggy form with faithful styling and select improvements. Released to celebrate its 30th anniversary, this reissue keeps the original character while strengthening components that see real-world use. The familiar front double trailing arms and rear torsion bar give it that authentic vintage handling.

Durable Chassis and Suspension Setup

The main frame uses 2mm thick FRP reinforced by a duralumin plate to resist flex in demanding conditions. Newly cast die-cast suspension arms at both ends increase toughness, and a clear waterproof case protects the electronics. Full ball bearings throughout the drivetrain contribute to a smoother and more efficient power transfer.

Body, Packaging and Motor

The kit supplies a white, easy-to-paint plastic body to let you personalise your buggy. The nostalgic blister style packaging replicates the original presentation, and a type 540 motor is included so the mechanical package is ready for assembly and running.
