OK there is still some time left for speculations, but what can we expect from Tamiya?

a brushless 1:8 monster truck that will wipeout everything others made up so far.
or some hot highspeed streetcar.

A 100 mph, 1/8 Lamborghini Diablo monster truck.

Would like to see a re-re Monster Beetle with KBF running gear or a re-designed ball diff as standard ???

a real 1/10th V8 under a muscle car bodyshell

... and still, the number six, 666, or 6^6^6 mean absolutely nothing to the Japanese, so it's a still a crock.

Here's some more synonyms for nothing:

• nada
• zero
• diddley squat
• naught (or nought)
• zilch
• zip
• bugger all
• bupkiss
• l'ouef
• owt (or aught)
• jack
• nix
• null

If Tamiya were superstitious about their numbering, then the Grasshopper, Mitsubishi Pajero wheelie or Abarth 500 Assetto Corse would have different numbers. To paraphrase Mugatu, to the Japanese, 666 means ...
