About this product
The Kyosho Legendary Series Turbo Scorpion 2wd 1:10 Kit (item K.30616D) is part of Kyosho’s Legendary Series re-release programme — a faithful, period-correct rebuild of the iconic 1980s Scorpion 1/10 2WD electric off-road buggy. The Turbo Scorpion was the higher-spec evolution of the original, with upgraded internals and a more aggressive bodyshell.
Sold as an unbuilt kit, this version lets collectors and vintage racers build a period-correct car with their own choice of motor, ESC, servo and battery. The Legendary Series uses original-spec body and chassis architecture with refined modern internals (ball bearings, oil shocks, updated electronics packaging).
The Scorpion is one of Kyosho’s most-loved 1980s designs, with a strong following in vintage racing scenes across the UK and Europe. Spare parts for the Legendary Series re-release are well stocked, and the kit’s clear instructions make it accessible to anyone with intermediate kit-building experience.
