Kyosho Optima Mid ReRe: Unboxing, Time Lapse Build, and Review

Easily one of the most iconic buggies of the '80's is back in a wonderful re-re format by Kyosho. Check out this video if you're as enamored by this buggy as I was back in the day. It can still hold up on a track today, with 4WD, belt drive, independent suspension, oil filled shocks, slipper clutch, and ability to handle modern brushless power systems.

For your own Kyosho Optima Mid, check out Eliminator RC (www.e-rc.ca) and use coupon code: Poorboysrc for $15 off your order.

Intro is hilarious I do that to my kids all the time. I have this one as well with the Kyosho 240S brushless motor and ESC, and for some reason I felt the need to buy every single option part in the back of the manual from Japan. I can't believe how expensive it came out to. I should build it.

If I didn't have this one with all the options, I'd get that green Optima Mid ’87 WC Worlds Spec 60th Anniversary. Most excellent!

Another self confessed Tamiya fan boy here mate...... but you just can't beat this buggy, or any of the legendary series for that matter! The quality of the design and components is incredible, they look devine, and the driving experience is delightful!! Oh, and that distinctive kyosho belt driven sound is like music to your ears! I have the turbo optima, and it's probably my favourite buggy to drive! Have to agree with you regarding the instructions though mate, I thought exactly the same. Caught that cheeky tire sniff there Fil, no unboxing video is complete without the mandatory sniff..... although I must admit, kyosho rubber never quite delivers the same 'hit' as Tamiyas! 🀣 Looking forward to the running video, especially if it's anything like your BBX one! πŸ‘Œ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘

They are a nice car. I drove mine once! Crashed. Now it sits on the shelf next to the Avante, gathering dust!

Such a gorgeous and classic buggy, Fil, they don't get much better than this! Love the tyre sniff, you connoisseur! The quality of the components in this kit really shines through. I'm certain you are gonna have a blast with this one, dude - enjoy! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘ŒπŸ‘

I bought mine from Eliminatior months ago ( I live 5 minutes away lol) . I've been stocking up on all the Option House parts to do a top build like I had with the original I had back in the late 80's. Worst thing I ever did was sell my original. Just trying to get the universal drive shafts is all I need. Some Titanium rods would be nice, but I don't think they actually made any, they list them but impossible to get. I also bought the 240 Gold brushless for it!

That's a super cool kit, I have been watching vintage racing that come up on one of the speed challenge channels. Would be nice to have one but super pricy over a Tamiya Vintage Dragon and other series.
