Might have to get rid of my TC cage in favour of one of these.

Not as good as it will look out on some dunes though headbang

I thought when these pics first came out at the start of the year you didnt like it back then Craig?  *pukes*

And yep will look sick out the dunes for sure, and roosting around my tracks! Only bummer is they're only releasing black and not dyable white like their chassis which to me is a really odd and somewhat stupid move, as I'm sure many would want to dye it up to match their custom Bajas , especially all the dune cars. ^screwy*

It's grown on me &angel*. The Pro-Line bug is still my favourite though headbang
I like it more with the driving lights on the roof. Just hope the kit looks as good as the prototype thumbsup.
I know there's money in 1/5th scale. I put it there!

They said DDM will be selling these, and are going to put a conversion package together for the people with a 5B if needed.
Don't know if Anyone in Australia will be selling these

Yeh for sure we'll have then,  just waiting for the release.

it was stated on another forum that no retailer in australia has placed orders for these from kraken  yet ........ hoping someone does and soon they are released soon in the States

I like it......but that side panel looks like it goes down to far, i think it needs to shorter although not hard to do...

Put an engine it that and everything else plus a wheel out the back and it complete the look as well....

With some stickers and the spare in the back I'd say it will look OK.

Wonder if you'd get a Twin in there dontknow

Something got lost in translation from the prototypes to production!! What's with the side panels hangin out like that!?

With better paint it'll look better but something's gone amiss there in the looks department!! Not so sure about one now, I'll wait for some more pics though with different paint before I write it off.

I think it's the color and no stikers along with that side panel that drops down further that throws it out dontknow ...noticed the bonnet is slightly different as well.....oh and that panel where the monster energy 'M' is

Yeah, all those things and the spare tire in the back. That panel actually makes a big difference doesn't it, looks much better on the prototype

The big side panels are too long or they need to fold into the chassis at the bottom?violent
