I didn't get into RC cars until Tamiya released The Frog. Turns out they've reissued it, too! Oh man... now I want one.

Hell yeah, I had one too! I still remember the way it smelled (the tire rubber and the plastic). Those things were so fun and probably why I love cars with crazy suspension setups today!
