The classic Midnight Pumpkin makes its way to the X-SA (Expert-Semi-Assembled) series offering an all-around fun 2WD drive on those iconic bulging tyres, complete with the original black 1980's livery - offering an all-around, fun 2WD R/C driving experience!
 
The Midnight Pumpkin is the sibling of the Lunch Box and has all the same fun driving features, with a wheelie popping, bouncing drive, go anywhere tyres and low slung battery to help it keep upright in the bends.  Simple construction and ease of repair are the watchwords of this classic model which has stood the test of time having been first launched in the late 80s.
 
About the X-SA series

Kits are a big part of what we do here at Tamiya, but we also understand that some people may not have the time or confidence for the assembly of an R/C model – that is why we have come up with the X-SA (Expert-Semi-Assembled) series of models. Each product features a fully-assembled and setup chassis with our TEU-105BK ESC (electronic speed control) included, plus a fully painted body with the marking stickers already applied. All you need to do is provide the R/C equipment and battery pack, install it, and you’re ready to drive.

- 1/12 scale finished R/C model. Length: 385mm, width: 290mm, height: 260mm.
- Features a stylish, tough styrene body, which comes with stickers already applied.
- The durable, easy-assembly 2WD chassis employs a box type frame with front swing arm independent and rear rolling rigid suspension setups.
- Big 115mm diameter semi-pneumatic tires on yellow wheels offer a dynamic drive on even the toughest of surfaces.
- The sealed rear gearbox protects the differential inside from dust and dirt.
- A rear wheelie bar supports the model for wheels-in-the-air action when you slam on the throttle.
- Comes with the TEU-105BK ESC.
- Requires separately sold: 2-channel radio, steering servo, and 7.2 volt battery pack and compatible charger.

Our X-SA Options: You can choose to purchase the car as is and fit radio equipment you already have.  Alternatively you can choose from our drop down options to add any of our standard radios (all come with a steering servo when purchased from this page), any of our standard batteries and any of our chargers, to make a complete package.

Fitting the radio equipment requires you to assemble the steering motor (Servo) head unit, screw that to the servo and fit the servo in the car.  The receiver is plugged in and stuck down.  It may be necessary to do a little dismantling (no more than 3 screws) before fitting the steering servo.
