I've seen this floating around the Book of Faces. The only problem is TFL prices are absolutely insane. They currently have a rolling chassis on eBay for $449 + $65 shipping for a total of $514. If it's high quality parts made from high quality metals it wouldn't be that bad, but as of now it's an untested brand.

agreed, ill bet its lighter than the RC4wd Blazer body by a LOT.

id go so far to say if the tuber is tube and not solid, the tubework and the body could way less than the rc4wd blazer abs body.

The Blazer has a full interior this is just a outer shell. That said I haven't owned the Blazer body.

the blazer body is 3/16 thick in some areas. about about 1/8" thick overall.
vs the typical 1/16" Tamiya/NB hard body
