Default Baja B5 Copy?

Found this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/1-5-Scale-Massiv...QQcmdZViewItem

I don't know much about these, and don't own one, but by reading the feedback, one person claims it is exactly like the Baja b5.

Question to the owners of the real thing, is this one of those china cheap azz knock-off-copys?

I've heard a bit about them, the "real" knock offs are direct coppied of the HPI but the quality of the materials are less than great, others are advertised using pictures of a real 5B but the actual product if you ever get one is nothing like the real deal.

Yeah there is a ton of clones out there for basically every good rc. Smartech is known bigtime for this. The rig there copying is usually part compatible.. There pieces of crap. The plastic is hard and shiny. Ya get what ya pay for.

It is prolly just like a 5B. Could even be made in the same building. There is all kinds of problems with people selling out the back door and what not over there.
