Default AX Grappler

I don't know whats up with all the black and silver Grapplers around here but I got me one of dem too. Sick body, not as low profile as a bug, but also its not a bug.







sorry for fuzzy pics, i hate camera's

But now everyone is going to be running Grapplers instead of bugs lol. You lose either way.

Iv never ran bugs but now I want one. I like how they look trimmed. I want the grappler on a more scale truck, I need light buckets.

Eventhough very cool the grappler can hardly be considered scale, I think the bug is probably more scale. The grapper is cool becasue it requires very little trimming to make it clear a modifed AX10, and its a truck!

The advantage of the bug is the round top and fenders that can be trimmed back to nothing. Its like a cat that always lands on its feet, I can also practicaly drive around on the lid.

I agree the bug does have that roll factor about it and it is a little more to scale but I bough a grappler body and man I love it

I like how you followed the body lines with the two tone instead of just a straight line, it looks much better.
