84432 Tamiya TRF102 Black Edition announced

Well we do not know what is happening yet with TRF, despite the rumours but Tamiya have announced a new TRF for 2017, albeit a black version of the TRF102. It looks to be exactly the same other than the black anodising. Why anyone would want black over blue totally escapes me. Details below.
