To be announced at Tamiya at All Japan Model Hobby Show. The shape of a motorcycle that a pizza store uses for delivery, the machine tilts greatly at the corner. The figure riding is slightly comical impression. It has a head like the driver of Wild Willy 2. It is very different from other manufacturer’s RC motorcycle, it seems to be able to run with the same operation feeling as a 4 wheel RC car. Furthermore, when the machine falls, it has a function to get up on its own. In addition, at the hobby show venue it is said that we will conduct a demonstration run & experience driving.
