Default Capo 1/6 Suzuki Samurai

Is this new or did I just miss it when it came out? Looks awesome!

Looks like a very recent release - super nice, hope they did increase the suspension softness as they've claimed they would for the production version.

That and the ability to run a softer, taller sidewall tire would make one of these an incredibly fun rig!

My late father had one of the 1:1 Sammys IRL...

If I could afford one - I'd get one of each - a Capo and a 1:1.

It does look a little stiff in the video. I like that it's another 1/6 scale, where there are so few of the larger scale vehicles except the Willys Jeep and New Bright TJ. I would like to see the body available by itself. It could be a nice starting place for whole new line of the larger scale vehicles.

I'm sure the suspension could be softened. it's definitely not top heavy or it would have flipped in the video. There were a few high speed turns. If this thing was $700 or so i'd get one just for the cool factor.

Thats interesting, I like it being different. I think If I had one I'd need to weather it right away, its just too pristine looking to drive like I'd want to.

I wonder if RPP will be able to get them? They did have the Ace but it was a special order thing.

A few videos I found

Am I trippin', or wasn't that radius arm/coil suspension only on the newer Jimny's, not the old boxy Samurai's/Jimny's? This thing looks great, but I feel like it needed to be on leafs.

Maybe they are thinking Air Ride Suspension?
