A Dive into the X-SA Series
Tamiya's X-SA series caters to enthusiasts who appreciate quality but may lack the time or confidence to build from scratch.

The fully painted body, adorned with pre-applied stickers, captures the classic charm of the Lunch Box while ensuring you’re road-ready with minimal setup. Simply add your radio system, steering servo, and power up with a 7.2-volt battery pack, and you're set for adventure.
The Classic Lunch Box Aesthetic
The Lunch Box is not just an RC car; it's a piece of RC history. Its 1/12 scale body is crafted in the original vibrant yellow styrene plastic, echoing the design language of past RC legends. The bright yellow wheels coupled with hefty 115mm tires promise excellent off-road capability, making it as much a showpiece as it is a performer.
Chassis Built for Durability and Fun
Underneath its striking exterior, the Lunch Box boasts a robust 2WD chassis featuring a box-type frame. This setup includes a front swing-arm independent suspension and a rear rolling rigid suspension, ensuring stability and agility across various terrains. The sealed gearbox protects essential components from dirt and debris, while the rear wheelie bar invites exciting wheel-in-the-air maneuvers, adding to the fun and flair of this model.
