Yeah, I don't know about this. This looks like a bunch of 3D printed parts using aftermarket parts made for the 1/18 WPL kits.

"state of the art 3D laser printing"

Not what I'm seeing in those pics. I hope those are prototypes....

Ya that's some rough print, better clean it up a lot if they want to sell.

The dude who makes these is on some of the FB groups and his concept is actually pretty cool - tons of parts, bodies, beds and stuff as a complete platform that’s almost entirely printable. Claims it’s super capable as well but haven’t seen that yet.

Unfortunately with the SCX24 out at $109 rtr it’s sort of a case of bad timing to release a $200+ kit that looks a bit unfinished.
