Vintage MIP - Full Size Tamiya Sand Scorcher 1:1

Remember MIP Vintage Products for Tamiya Sand Scorcher? They were racer favorites...imagine a full size bug!

"Shown below is a 1:1 scale Tamiya Sand Scorcher which had been constructed as part of a project by a team of students led by The Bug Box. As you would imagine it was a real head turner at the Tamiya booth at this year's Nurmberg Toy Fair." HobbyMedia

Tamiya has just announced the re-release of the popular Sand Scorcher kits popular in the 70's - should MIP re-release some MIP Hop-Ups for it?  Hmmm....
