【Hobby】Can you get your hands on the coveted old Jimny!? The reproduction based on Suzuki's official license is astonishing

The beloved classic car, the old Jimny (SJ10 Type 1), is returning as an RC car. The model, obtained with Suzuki's official license, boasts an impressive level of replicability!

A robust and charming "Old Jimny" faithfully reproduced

The "WPL JAPAN C84 RTR Jimny (SJ10)," developed with the official license from Suzuki, which brought the Jimny to the world. The SJ10 Type 1 from the 1970s, which served as the model, is known for its two-stroke engine and maneuverable body, boasting excellent off-road capability despite being a light vehicle.

Its distinctive and rugged style, along with the atmosphere of the era, has been thoroughly recreated in the RC car scale. The design, which respects the original, is sure to appeal not only to longtime fans but also to the younger generation with its fresh charm.

RTR specification allows for immediate use right out of the box

The "WPL JAPAN C84 RTR Jimny (SJ10)" is an RTR (Ready to Run) specification that is beginner-friendly for radio control enthusiasts. The completed chassis comes with a transmitter, battery, and charging cable included, allowing users to start driving immediately.

It features ease of use without the need for tools or specialized knowledge, making it smooth to enjoy even for those who are new to RC cars. It is suitable as an entry point for hobbies, offering an enjoyable way to share experiences among parents and children or friends.

Attention to the suspension and gimmicks

Despite being in 1/10 scale, it features a leaf spring suspension for the footwork. By modeling the structure of the actual vehicle, it achieves realistic driving performance. The round dual headlights at the front, the simple yet powerful silhouette, the rear seat, and the spare tire carrier──. It seems to revive memories from my childhood, watching the Jimny on the road with keen interest.

Furthermore, the soft top and doors are removable, allowing for a switch between the open and soft top configurations. The DNA of "scale crawler," unique to WPL JAPAN, which specializes in outdoor RC, is alive. It's certainly enjoyable to display, but one might also want to drive it on rough roads.

Comes with limited perks and a variety of stickers

As a purchase bonus, original Japanese limited stickers and collaboration brand stickers are included. You can enjoy customizing it with the classic "jimny55" logo and popular brand decals.

Additionally, limited quantities of special projects such as course sets and metal upgrade sets will be available. This is a model that can be played with not only for driving but also for display and customization.
The nostalgic Jimny SJ10 is now available as an RC car with the "WPL JAPAN C84 RTR Jimny (SJ10)." Its exquisite level of detail and the convenience of RTR make it attractive as it can be driven right away. Why not pick up that old Jimny you once admired?
