Complete Guide to Kyosho's Legendary 2WD Buggies: Scorpion, Beetle, Tomahawk, Ultima and more!

Kyosho Scorpion, Tomahawk, Beetle or Ultima? Considering a 2WD Kyosho Legendary Series buggy but not sure which one to choose? Or already have one, and wondering if it's worth getting another? Then this is the guide for you! 😀

In this video I take an in-depth look at all of the current re-released 2WD buggies from Kyosho. Apologies for the long length, but I wanted to be as thorough as possible. This video has been by far the most complex and time consuming production I've done to date! Most of the footage has been shot over the course of the past 18 months. I've tried to be as comprehensive as possible, and perhaps someone, somewhere might find it entertaining. Or at the very least, help them with acute insomnia. 😅

Some things to note:

The prices I gave are the MSRP here in Japan. Usually the kits are cheaper. The price in dollars will seem very low as the Japanese Yen is particularly weak at the moment!

With the exception of the Turbo Scorpion, all of my kits have some upgrades, usually in the form of universals, shocks, wings etc.

As always, thanks for your time!
