absolutely love those shocks and oh yes the black Egress tires and wheels
Excellent thanks for watching Brett 😎👊🏻
Stunning! Absolutely Stunning!
Thank you 😊😊😊
The black wheels for sure. Looks great to me! 👌👍
Thanks Mick, yeah that the wheel set I ran it on 🤩👊🏻
Don’t worry about the thumbs down fools, the rest of us appreciate the time and effort you put in, and you produce some great car variants that look and perform way better than the kit standard.
Thanks buddy 🤩
Definitely the black Egress wheels.
Yeah I’m definitely staying with those 🤩👊🏻
I love how it looks with black wheels, but also amazing with yellow fluo! That body is amazing
Thanks for watching buddy 😎👊🏻
car looks wicked AF , i like the yellow wheels - they match perfect.
Thanks buddy 😎😎😎
HELL, I hit the like button before I even watch the video. Just love the aggressive tires, looks like they will tear up the track. Always have to up grade the shocks, seems like all the cars have the yellow shocks on them. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching John 😎👊🏻
I'm really falling in love with the Tamiya like. I like the form factor and are fun to drive. You have such an awesome collection behind you. Your Egress came out fantastic. 👍👍
Oh wow the Egress looks awesome both standard and with the special paint job
Thanks Martin 😎👊🏻
Glenn that is STUNNING 😀 with the black wheels of course
Thanks Paul 😎👊🏻
Dammmmm two thumbs down in the first 40 minutes of the video being published!
Just my opinion but you should have to leave a comment in order to thumbs down a video! That way you could see if it’s genuine criticism or if it’s just someone being a Dick! 🤷🏼♂️
Totally agree! I find it silly that ppl Watch yet don’t like!
What does a thumbs down equate to on your end as a CZcams channel?
@@weaponisedpotato7352 Nothing, no Matter how bad the video within reason! . It knocks your personally as a lot of time & effort goes into Filming, editing & uploading. Not to mention the money invested in the RC in each Channel. A Thumbs up is just a sign of Respect 😊
@@weaponisedpotato7352
Nothing at all, it’s classed the same as a thumbs up 🤷🏼♂️
But it would just be nice to actually get constructive criticism from these guys 🤔. It’s very easy to just label them as Haters, but I feel that’s unfair, they might actually have something to say that could improve the channel 🤷🏼♂️
Even if they said something like, yeah that Egress looks poor compared to how the box art is, so sorry it’s a thumbs down from me!
Then that’s proper feedback 🤷🏼♂️
I hear ya mate. I've had a serial thumb down clown on my channel for around a year now. They usually do it to every video for a week or so, then nothing for a week, then they come back and thumb down a few more... So I've worked out that this one is basically a lazy bastard. But I am grateful for their views! 🤣
The yellow wheels look the best!
Thanks for the feedback my friend 😊👊🏻
The standard egress tires definitely look the best👌 really enjoyed this video 👍
Thanks Peter 🤩👊🏻
Wow! Now that's a mean beasty looking egress! Nice work, I like it, the black wheels go well, and the yellow wheels look really good too. Really the choice is yours for wheels. Thanks for sharing!!! 👍
Thanks for watching as always my friend 😎👊🏻
Very Nice Glenn plus those black wheels set it off.
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Just got mine last weekend. Seeing this video makes we want to get another. Agree with the original black wheels as well.
That looks absolutely superb, great job! For me the black Egress wheels and tyres look the best - very aggressive with those big spikes.
Lovely I’m glad you like it 😊😊😊
I love the old school pin spikes crazy awesome
Looks great, the original Egress wheels look the best to me
Thanks for watching 😊👊🏻
Looks good with the black egress wheels to me. Very nice.
Thanks Wade 😎👊🏻
Looks amazing, those mirror finish trf decals are rocking horse poo currently!!
Yeah I’m really struggling to get any TRF decals at the moment 😬
It's a looker Glen!! Thumbs up Buddy!
Cheers 😎👊🏻
👍 Top class as always 👊
Thank you 😊
Aye, agreed. Such a gorgeous model. I could see tho the front shocks bottoming on a jump.
Yeah this car had already been to the track with the kit shocks on, the next couple of running videos with this car have been more gentle out much faster 🤩🤩🤩
16:35 => I told you, Glenn...Protective layers of rubber spray on the inside is a MUST for custom painted bodies !
Loving that paint job!
Hey Steve 👋🏻
Glad to see your on the mend my friend 👊🏻
I like the black wheels better, but as a whole the paint is awesome!
Thank you 😊
Glenn,you've gone from Tummy Legends to Tommy Legends :)
Excellent although I preferred Tummy 🤪👊🏻
That looks awesome mate. The Egress looks a totally different car with white wheels. Black wheels all day long for me.
Thanks buddy 😎👊🏻
looks fantastic Glenn mate very nice😊👍👊😎🤟🇬🇧
Cheers Leon 😊👊🏻
Very nice man! Great looking buggy.
Thanks buddy 😊😊😊
Shocks & body are fantastic - I think the egress wheels & tires look the best, the other two options bring the car down no doubt - I also like to drop my cars down low when possible 👍
Thanks Wade yeah lowering cars doesn’t go down well on here 😬👊🏻
Looks so good!
Thanks for watching 😎👊🏻
Stunning Glen.. I missed the fact this shell didn’t have the the TRF pink.. really like the lime green!!. Must say my heart was in my mouth when that little paint chip happened😅😅😅
Cheers Darren I know it’s not for everyone, but I’m loving the TRF style stuff tbh 😊👊🏻
Superb. Tamiya should have come out with a special kit like this instead of the black special.
Thanks for watching 😊👊🏻
Love the Egress nice and low. Just dropped mine to 10mm front and back. Thanks for another great video. Look awesome.
Excellent thanks for watching my friend 😎👊🏻
love that car. I think it is the height of the newer wheels that makes it not look smack on. The neon yellow wheels look best against the body. Maybe white VQS wheels fit nicely
Yeah I think those wheels would work 😎👊🏻
black wheels looks the best
Thank you 😊
Glenn that Egress looks absolutely stunning. The black Egress wheels looks the thing, but I like colours so I think the yellow one's also do the car justice. And those shocks are like made for the car 👍🏼
Thanks my friend 😎👊🏻
Looking sweet Glenn, giving me ideas for my Egress....still in box. The Egress wheels look great and the best of the 3 sets in my opinion. 👍🏻
Excellent thanks Michael 😊👊🏻
Yellow for me 👍👍
Thanks for the feedback 😊👊🏻
I think white vanquish wheels will look good, hopefully they should be available soon
Yeah I agree Martin that set could look pretty sweet 🤩
Those black wheels look great against that colour scheme
Thanks Eddie 🤩👊🏻
Stunning car! I think i prefer the custom paint job to that of the box art! (Maybe!). Those stickers really do pop! Cant wait to see this running. Another great video. 😃👍
Thank you 😊😊😊
For me the yellow florescent wheels really make it pop with that beautiful body. But if i was going to race it or do speed runs than the white are the best. They are more aerodynamic and keep the dust out. Either way it's a great problem to have.
Beautiful Piece of Kit That , i will be getting myself one for christmas or a top force either way ill be happy , as slowly but surely building up a great collection as we get on to 2021, great video as always bud - seroiusly beauty of a Car :-)
Thanks Andrew 🤩👊🏻
Both shells look great it's a egress it's rad no Matter how you slice it
love it
Thanks Tom 😎👊🏻
Great vid buddy🤗🤗👍
Thanks buddy 😎👊🏻
Definitely the yellow.....
Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻
Let’s put it this way, somehow that kind of rc model didn’t appeal to me, I couldn’t identify with them if that makes sense, and now I’m thinking of buying myself one! So yes, Egras with fluorescent wheels👌😉!
Excellent glad you liked it my friend 😊😊😊
This thing sits low, lean, and sleek. Like Japanese cars of the 9O’s older Tamiya was impressive design wise
Thanks for watching buddy 😎👊🏻
Because of your videos I've dug out my original 1989 Egress and have spent months in a cycle of fixing things, breaking things and ordering parts again. 30 year old plastic is so brittle :( Plus for some reason my Dynatech 01r just doesn't have power (it was fine the last time it ran... Err... 25 years ago)... Need to strip it down and rebuild it to see if it helps.
Excellent sometimes the strip down is the best bit Don 😎👊🏻
Damn fine looking car mate
Thanks my friend 🤩👊🏻
I think the decals really made the buggy pop, before you put them on I thought it was missing something but wasn’t sure what . As far as the wheels go the black ones give it a sinister look that I like the best. But I must admit I like the yellow wheels too they kind of give it a top force look with custom colors. The white wheels were boring they didn’t do the paint job justice. Great video Glenn .
Excellent thanks Eric 😊👊🏻
That looks awesome Glenn! I'm hoping for the '21 rerere lol I'll definitely be getting it and another shell! #inspiration
No decals dude. That paint scheme is super uber cool. Less is more equals nothing in this case. Definitely black wheels. And honestly, the higher stance looks really, really sweet, particularly as the wing is so big and high mounted, the lower it sits, the more it looks odd.
Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻
Very Nice 🤩
Cheers Adam 😎👊🏻
Definitely the black rims👍 but what you could do is get a set of vqs rims when they materialise and dye them? You just can't beat an egress especially with a trick body! Excellent video again👍 why do people do thumbs down? I don't understand It's just a light hearted hobby video people can be absolute moronic idiots 😤
Thanks Phil 😎
Egress wheels are legendary and look best in this video. You might also try blue rims if you have the time...
Thanks buddy 😎👊🏻
You should make some nice holographic Tamiya legends decals. You could give them to your Patreon’s .
Yeah that sounds awesome, I’m just struggling to get any stickers made at the moment 😬
Black wheels for me Glenn
Me too Rob 🤩👊🏻
Looks great! The black wheels look much better imo. The dish wheels looked way out of place, yellow ones just too yellow and take attention away from shell and chassis. The TRF shocks look particularly good with that shell and chassis.
Thank you 😊
I think white wheels would look good, but not those white wheels. Great content as always Glenn.
Thanks Michael 😊👊🏻
I'm stuck between the black and yellow wheels but at end of the day its what you like
Thanks for watching Tony 🤩👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends anytime fella
Just one more comment lol.. I think if you had left the large decal off the side so it does not cover the paint and just put the small trf sticker in the bare white portion of the side fronts that would have looked so classy! Still Looking good tho.
Thanks for watching as always buddy 😊😊😂
You could dye a set of VQS wheels to the same yellow. Otherwise black egress wheels Fo Sho
Excellent not sure if the VQS wheels are made from nylon though?🤔
But yes I agree that wheel set could look good 😎👊🏻
best looking Egress, this side of the Galaxy- any way to remove the large Tamiya decal and place a small chrome one forward in the white area only?
Thanks for watching and the feedback my friend 😎👊🏻
The high cap still look better on this car even with this body.
Faultless Glenn
Thanks buddy 😊😊😊
Hey Glenn, you can spy the Egress re-re year from Tamiya Legends Facebook page or just Google it.. 😉 You know what i mean 😂 Love these vids 😊
Haha yes I should of known that before I made the video 🤪👊🏻
Does the Gentileman who did your body do commision worK? I'm looking for someone that can do a TRF version of an Egress and Dyna Storm body.
Yes he’s called Craig Garret (uk) and is on he TAMIYA Legends Facebook Group 👊🏻
Sorry but I really am not a fan of these painted shells. I can see the amount of work involved in doing them. But I think they make the cars look toy grade. They hide all the lines of the shell and detract from the engineering of the chassis.
It's not that I'm a box art fan I just think they are way too busy. But the black wheels are the best so not all bad news lol. Keep it up Glenn. You can't please everyone all the time. So just please yourself then atleast you know you are happy.
Thanks Matt 😊
You really need to buy four or five brushless setups, between 13,5 and 8,5turn. Go for hobbywing. Cheap and very good. I have 13,5turn in my two top forces, an 8,5 in my xb4, a 5,5 i think is way too fast. I have a 13turn brushed in my egress. And I have one more 13,5t, and a 8,5t and two esc's on the way. And a 17turn brushed combo to play with in my avante. Very good motor for 20dollars'ish, the yeah racing hackmoto with ball bearings and replacable brushes....=)
Yeah I prefer the high caps on it too.
Great job with the decals Glenn, I like how the Plasma Edge 2 wheels look with that body but can see what you mean about the original wheels, they also look great. I thought the original Egress wheels were also lightweight ones? Could be wrong though.
I had the Avante back in the day and really wanted the Egress as well but as a kid couldn't afford both. Are there any plans for Tamiya to do a re-release Porsche 959 1/12? From memory they were substantially more expensive than the Avante back in the day.
Yeah only Tamiya know what’s coming in the future 🤷🏼♂️
Fingers crossed my friend 😀🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
The Avante was unobtainium when I was a kid. The 959 even more so. Same as the Bruiser.
@@KT_One Ah yes we can't forget that 3 speed off road legend.
Hi mate , does your buddy paint bodys for other people for cash ?? As my brother has an Egress and is looking to get someone in spain to paint a body for his , but someone closer to home would be good . Many thanks , Scott . PS Looks amazing mate . All the best ............
Yes he sure does Scott, just contact him and he’ll sort you out buddy 😊👊🏻
Love it! keep it how it is, looks amazing! I'm just in the process of building the Egress Black edition, not sure if it is going to be a shelf queen or give it one run?
I’m thinking the white dish tyres look the best, but I guess everyone’s taste are different. 🙂
Yeah would look better if I fitted it with a new set of white dished wheels 👊🏻
Can you post a list of all the hop up parts and their numbers for the re re egress? Cheers man
black wheels look best IMO, the paint is great but im not loving the body itself that big cut out in front of the rear wheels looks odd to me
Thanks for watching 😎
I’d be interested in buying this Glenn if it comes up for sale. Failing that I am nicking your idea when the rere comes out. Need to find someone that can airbrush a flowing Tamiya flag livery. Not easy to do .
Glenn the used white wheel/tyre set you put on it kinda looked out of place for me personally mate ? They kinda looked a bit too big n overpowering ?? Whereas the Original Black Tamiya ones looked ace i thought mate ?? The yellow plasma edge set looked a bit better than white set like but i'd definitely prefer the Tamiya Egress/1st set you put on it mate? Luv that Body n Wing though mate! Gorgeous! Wes, Liverpool, UK.
The original Egress wheels are hard to beat. They look great on most vintage Tamiya buggys. I really wanted an Egress but the money people are asking for them is just ludicrous and greedy.
Yes there definitely my favourite wheel/tyres from Tamiya 🤩👊🏻
I think the black rims and the yellow rims are equally good in my opinion.
Thanks Brad 😊👊🏻
I always thought the egress and avanti are Nicer then the manta ray and top force.
Black wheels
Thanks buddy 😎👊🏻
That new body is really nice but I still prefer the stock or box art for it more.
Cheers Brad 😎👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends a Glenn did trail critters send you a video I wanted him to send to you forgot what was about but it was something I think you would have liked to have seen also don't forget to take a look on the web for the kyosho progress 4wds. It is a spectacular car. Let me know what you think of it when you find it and see it.
@@TAMIYALegends I know remember what it was it was a Japanese channel I don't know the name of it cuz they show it in Japanese kanji writing it was a Durga against something called the d418 on a track together and it I don't know if I got the cars mixed up with the dirt or look like it was faster and a straight in the streets of the track than the other one.
@@bradkalman2353
Yeah watched that this evening, great video to watch 😎👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends Glenn are you familiar with the d418 it look like it had a Durga body on it by the way but wasn't the Durga the one that was faster in the straits?
Lovely car and lovely shocks but don’t really go together. You are taking away from the classic 80’s egress look with those modern trf shocks. It makes it look like a generic associated or something. In my humble opinion.
No problem my friend it’s all about opinions 😊👊🏻
You know that offered vehicles need to have ground clearance if you go run them off road you're going to run them on road I can see you lowering the suspension but just wanted to know if you knew that.
Big thumbs up 🤣. Looks superb. Black wheels all the way. Let's see some sunshine on the body to see how it pops.
Running video in the sun coming soon my friend 🤩👊🏻
That shell is turning into a nightmare for you.
Hey,
This is just a silly observation; it’s not meant to be “beef” or anything; just something I observed while looking at yet another Tamiya/ rc car magazine (I was a HUGE “Tamiya guy” back then).
Anyway, I noticed that you are one of those guys who says lots. And lots. And...... LOTS. But, and here’s the quirky bit, whilst you ‘say lots’, you actually talk very little! In terms of facts stated/requests made of people/instructions given/devolved/taken!
Anyway, great video, BTW!!!!!
Ok thanks for the feedback, there’s much better channels you can watch than mine my friend! I don’t review things, I don’t call this a show, it’s just me doing my hobby and recording it as I go 🤷🏼♂️
But thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts 👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends
Hey come on! You’re doing youself down, bro! Yours is every bit a show or whatever u call it... just with a slant! My first EVER proper rc car was a 1:10 called the ‘Samurai’, but I’m pretty sure that it wasn’t by Tamiya. Do you have any ideas re who made it? I’ve researched but can’t find it anywhere......
Ps my first EVER rc car was a lil’ toy, called a Turbo Panther. My parents gave it to me in hospital, as a ‘reward’ after a nasty medical procedure. It was super slick on the smooth hospital floors. We nearly tripped up, some nurses, and we all laughed...... my, ho the days of Health & Safety have changed things!!
@@angelogandolfo6374
That car was made by Marui 👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends
Ah yes of course, it’s coming back to me now! The Marui Samurai! Thanks so much, that was bugging me. Also, it was really tricky to build, if I remember, compared with similar kits in the same class.... thanks man!!
Meh...
Don't get the fuss.
Sorry saying I know it's our own opinion but to me doing this to a buggy slowing him down it to me is not practical for the usage you usually use them on I want practical.
the yellow ones are not going to look good with the silver body.
They don't look good on that and they wouldn't look good on the other body I prefer the spoked wheels.
Looks good with the black egress wheels to me. Very nice.
Thanks Wade 😎👊🏻
