My father in law bent his yeti kit rear arms. They didn't go back.

If and when I get this, I will be looking for ti links and I know just where to get em.

This would be a fun rig for me, to upgrade like the budget series where I see a weakness. Just take my time and build it up as needed.
I hope somebody else makes some 3d printed goodies for it.
Those exclusive parts... Exclude me from those.
But I totally want a full interior with back seat. That was just enough to tease me lol

I had the RTR Deadbolt back when I started and that was probably enough for me. After only so many sessions the rear lowers started bending and whenever the rear end had any sort of traction, one side would bend and screw with the alignment. It was even worse when the tires got bound up because that meant for sure that link on the side of the tire would flex as much as possible.

I do remember seeing that video awhile back. Never thought nothing of it. I remember thinking that was a good looking Spawn body.

I too recall seeing it but the axles were maybe ax10 and it looked disproportionate at the time

I couldnt tell if they were the OG axles or the new ar44s with black diff covers. I do like the looks of that body though. Id like to have one, but like i said, ill wait til the hype cools off n see if the pruce drops a bit

OG ax10 axles.

Just watched the video.. the new 1.9 wraith would sure look sick with the old spawn body and the new front end.

This Wraith Spawn 1.9 was built by Rivas Concepts back in 2015, and has always been my favorites.

A lot of people did.

Matt from Scale Builders Guild said the factory prototype was driving around at Axialfest 2017 but then there was that whole Hobbico implosion thing.

Even though it's not really groundbreaking or anything, I like it. I do think they missed the mark on price though. Dog bones, crap shocks, crap plastic links should put it in the $300-320 range. I might buy the cage and body or a slider if I can get my hands on it for cheap.

RPP email saying it was in stock and since I have no control I ordered without thinking. Love the new look and thinking it will make a great trail truck.

In a moment of weakness, I ordered one too. I already have universals, tires, wheels, aluminum knuckles, and a few other goodies sitting here in the parts bin looking for a home. I'll try to keep this rig pretty simple. Should be a pretty good training rig for the kids.
