The Hornet returns in an anniversary release that keeps its iconic appearance while incorporating upgrades that make everyday off-road use tougher and more forgiving. It is aimed at hobbyists who want a nostalgic build that still performs.
The polycarbonate shell is reproduced at 0.7mm to retain the Hornet's characteristic lines. The revised decal layout keeps the retro identity but gives the car a sharper, more modern finish when painted.
The standard 2WD bathtub frame is enhanced with a sealed rear gearbox taken from the DT-02, which helps protect gears from grit and water. Independent double wishbone arms and CVA oil dampers on both ends provide composed handling on uneven surfaces and street-to-dirt transitions.
If you want a build that honors the classic Hornet while offering more dependable running in everyday conditions, the Tamiya Hornet 58742 anniversary kit is a practical and enjoyable choice.
