Cool The Imperial Wraith

My need for change comes at the hands of a Sandtrooper. Not many changes internally though--same, old drive train, motor, servo, etc. Wheels and tires are still RC4WD but they fit so much better now with this jeep body and color. Added the roof rack and Poison Spyder JK Crusher Fender Flares for the helluvit.

This IS the wraith I was looking for!

Yeah but when he does I suspect they won't be the ones he's looking for!

Actually, what this driver really needs to find is a sidekick, but who?

Don't they always travel in pairs? I'll try to get some pics of my summit.

As much as I hate to say "that Integy bumper looks good".....I have to say, that Integy bumper looks good!

By the way, you're ride is slicker than wet goose poop on a hot tin roof for sure!!! That means it looks great LOL!

The stock bumper had been broken for a while.
And I wanted something quite durable.
Despite the stigma that Integy has...
I am pleasantly surprised by how this piece turned out.

Great idea, but they're not released yet in the Black Series.
Technically, Boba is out there but at a very steep Comic Con scalper price.

But when they are released... a new Wraith, you will see!!

I've tried about 5 different sets of tires now. These RC4WD Boggers are excellent for crawling and really grip the rocks well. They're slightly narrower than other tires but if you find good foams then they fill out better.

The other tires I like are the Pitbull Rock Beast II's. They are probably the best best scale-to-performance tires right now. But I can always count on those Boggers too!

I really dig your theme and the flares look very good on that rig. Nice job.

Seatbelts are homemade--red craft ribbon.
I could get more detailed with metal clasps and all but, meh!

License plate says: 4RCEBWU

As in: May the 4RCEBWU Always!

That goose poop comment is funny!
I've also thought about cutting the boggers.
But lately they haven't seemed to be a problem where ever I go.
I've been using a Nikon DSLR versus before I was just using a point & shoot.
