The Tamiya Egress Black Special (47489) is a Limited Edition re-release of the iconic Egress 4WD off-road buggy. The original Egress arrived in 1989 as the follow-up to the Avante, and this Black Special variant brings the platform back in a collector-grade livery you won't see often.
The Egress is one of Tamiya's most respected late-1980s competition cars — flagship-level engineering for its era. This Black Special preserves that pedigree with premium build quality and limited-run exclusivity.
