Default RE: Tamiya Tiger I Help

*laughs*

Been telling you guys this for years, ever since I saw the one out of my static Tiger and thought the gears looked like the ones in the traverse. Only difference is the color of the plastic.

Tamiya is famous for re-using parts... as many know from their RC cars... The Frog, Brat, & Lancia Rally buggies, then the Blackfoot (monsterized w/ F-150 body) MudBlaster (monsterized with Brat body) & MonsterBeetle (monsterized with Beetle body) all used the same major components, and re-used bodies from other kits too. Same with the Sand Scorcher/Rough Rider, Blazing Blazer/Hi-Lux 4x4, Bruiser/Mountainer, and many many more.

Haven't dug for the gears yet, but wil. Got a tube of silly-cone here ready to begin locking 'em too.
