Default Yokomo prototype announced for 52nd Shizuoka Hobby Show

On Team Yokomo's official blog on the Shizuoka Hobby Show preparation , Mishima-san mentioned that a "protoype machine" would be on show. What do you think we will get to see next week?

As the BD-7 and B-Max2MR are quite new and we've got an electric off-road world this year, I would not be surprised to see a new 4WD buggy. On the other hand, a B-Max2-based truck would also be welcome.

BMAX4 WN was released in autumn. I think it's too early for a 4wd. Maybe a SC based on MR.

I think it's got to be a new 4wd buggy. B-max4 is getting long in the tooth now.

Dont think it will be SC. Look how long it took them to bring out a 2wd.

I will no doubt be so wrong tho......

It always takes some time from prototype stage to finished product. IIRC the original B-Max2 was shown on a hobby show in spring and finally released in autumn. As Yokomo seems to bring out updates of their cars every year, a new 4wd would be right on schedule and, if Naoto gets it right, could be released with a fancy world champion sticker in autumn. Merry Christmas everyone!

I like BX a lot more than B-Max4........actually I am looking forward to seeing a new carbon fibre 4wd instead of composite tub one......
