Amazing! The boys are very excited!!
Hi Ryan, Almost finished. Not long now 👍🏻
The Frog was my first Tamiya RC kit.
Mine too!
Top work ! Looks fantastic. This is the Tamiya era I'm the most nostalgic about :-)
Pete Wylie RC Videos Yep it was a golden time for innovative, fun designs.
Nice job .. turned out great!!
I came across a Super Hornet I had in the garage for about 25yrs, I did a little research, and thought I would clean it up and put it all back together. Only because after watching your video's, this is still a really cool hobby! Thanks I think your channel is great as well!
Looks great, its one I will have to add to my Tamiya collection
Very nice job
muddfoot69 Thanks, 👍🏻
I love the frog remote control car it's cool 😎
Yep it’s lovely and drives well for its age. I still have it
Came out nice!
Nice watch.
Thanks. I’m desperately trying to hold onto it as the show burns capital but it was a gift for my 40th. 👍🏻 It’s lovely I agree.
True about the tricky fingers thing. But that's part of it. Lol
I painted my Frog green instead of pink back in the day. I painted the wheels green too. My cousin had the Frog also. He painted it like the box. All the other kids would say was he driving a girls car.
Lucky winner and great paint job.
Great video buddy. Its my 40th this weekend. And just managed to bag me my first Frog to add to my ever growing collection! 😉😉. Keep up the great work! Mark.
Marky Modelman39 Happy Birthday Mark and you will love the Frog.
Thanks buddy. 😊😊😊
nice!
Awesome work, always loved the frog. Have been watching the show for ages didn't realise I wasn't subbed! CZcams keeps feeding me your videos regardless. It knows I love the channel..
👍🏻 Good to hear CZcams is doing that. Normally it’s people telling me YT has stoped informing them when my vids come out lol
Hi Mate, great finish! Can you or anyone advise on how to mask around the curve of the lower windscreen?? Thanks everyone!!
Came out great. I wonder if it would look better with the pink replaced with red to match some of the stickers. If I ever get one, I may try that.
Nobody No One Well if you try it, send me a pic as I would love to see it 👍🏻
@@RCKickschannel Will do. The Frog is not high on my list though. I still need a Brat first.
What ever happened to brush painting the body like I did back in the day? Have you tried score and snap on the lexan?
C Marshall Spraying has taken over. Score and snap as in edges, I’ve never tried it.
I know how you feel Gav. I am currently painting the body of my comical frog to match the box art.
Do you reclean the inside after removing the first mask and before applying the next colour? Or do you use specific tape that leaves no residue/glue? I'm about to start a top force rere 35 years since my only other car, the grasshopper. P.s. what hopups should I do before I even run it? I did already order a super stock bz motor and an aluminum drive shaft... Please and thank you
I've always wanted an TV act like that I've owned TV cars before but never one of those it's my dream to own one
Have you ever applied a clear coat over the paint to seal against cracking? What about a clear coat over the top to seal the stickers?
Really brings back memories! I would love to have another someday...
I can now see why you're always so discriminating about paint jobs...
You do such a great job yourself!! 👍👍
Great video . My childhood dream car. Do you assemble and paint if I pay you too build and paint ?? Thank you
Brought a Frog 2 years ago and sold it...now I want another.
Would you buy a Hornet and Grasshopper?.
Some people I have spoken to say they break really easily.
I am looking at buying the Green Edition Grasshopper as it is like my KAWASAKI ZZR1400 in colour.
Great video! I'm restoring a true vintage Frog from '83. About to paint my body and I sprung for vintage decals. Love your editing!
Thank you that’s most kind. Have fun with your Frog, it’s an epic car.
sed6 Hi Mate, Can you or advise on how to mask around the curve of the lower windscreen?? Thanks!
I LOVE IT!
It actually looks really cool!

Lol you want it for yourself? Just cause I’ve never had a tamiya, and that I play videogames? Lol. People could have multiple hobbies
Looks nice.
It did not look healthy when you sprayed that pink :)
Yeah, would love some behind the scenes. Building a hobby room myself right now 🙂
I hear a lot of Brits and Aussies refer to Tamiya kits as ReeRee. Does the name refer to “re-release” or something else?
My friend Iv been well not able to keep up with all my Rc kicks no pun! Well that's a stretch!!
I Admit I Admit, Gladly I hear you getting the Home office of

After the build it loses a bit of interest unless you make a new body body adds character but that body is A bit small but girl you should where a name tag love that unicorn universal man to the rescue transform into a frog
Paul Gonzales Hi, I will do some none box are body paint jobs soon and I have an airbrush as well.
@@RCKickschannel ur swell in my book
I kinda meant if some kid get lucky to win , when I say kid maybe I speaking of my self as a youngster and if I Go Something RC it was mindblowing, I was more likely to get a Honest a Wood Burning kit,or a 12 gauge shotgun! If I wanted it No way I was going to get it I get something ah like a boy needs a box with wood to burn inside or a gun! Looking back I see my stepfather Line of thought I bet I had A policy #
My Father got me Well like Now RC stuff but as a boy I had to burn the RC car My Dad got me I bet this is unbelievable to you I wish it had been for me ,My original comment I meant kid wins even if he has people lined up to help with paint and the hole experience Its not really needed because U make sure The Person got exactly what they want, it will look like the Box Other prizes that may acquire some help and help would rather hear help !NO!! SOMEONE STATES AWAY SENT IT WHY ARE THAT NOT HELPING YOU ,DID I HEAR YOU PLAYING WITH THE CAR NO!NO! I COULD HEAR SOMETHING
THAT BE MY CAR BURNING HAPPY NOW Stepfather Bill?
Root in Reality This was my First Class Childhood was and more I don't Like Seeing Kids Used As tool or Maying them into a mess of The Real Loved one to dismantle that I was Shaped in not smart enough to see I was feeling alot shit I didn't mean it be
Or Example why I'm A __________, anything positive or good is automatically wrong
@@smellurfingerrcdejesus9176 I don't understand what you speaking about Please elaborate on these comments
hi the rerelease body is not the same as the vintage the on off switch is cut out on the vintage the rerelease body u cant have the switch installed anywhere but u could cut it out yourself but its hard to get it right great video
I need a grasshopper my father and i built one back in the day as a wheelie car it was really cool . He died 18 years ago and i would love another one it would bring back so many memories .
boots fpv Go for it, the Grasshopper was excellent! I’ll add one to the channel at some point.
iv'e still got that catalogue in my loft :D
My first car was a frog I hated it snapped the chassis 3 times absolutely crap cars I would not have one give best please for it is the bin sorry guys I'm taking from experience tho from back in 1984
I leave on access material ez to hold while I paint I like ur Mercedes sharp car I always wanted a s 550 with headers I know its not classy but it would make a kool hot rod I like how u did driver with a tiny brush what if the guy wanted a aferican American driver what do thay call black ppl in uk since their not American over their is it just African decent hmmmmm I'm Mexican never changed always been a Mexican I wonder off a lil sometimes don't get shaky take a break sit down look around at ur other builds take a deep breath u never wasted money on ur hobby just funny how much money you have for mistakes I need to take some of my own advice sometimes u look like Rick from pawn stars pepto bismol pink that dog barks alot
Three colors is what every body should have again I need proper English jkv
Look a dodo
I am thoroughly dizzy from the intro
🤢🤮
LOL sorry about that, it was a little fast.
