Very awesome! I need one of these! But they also need to come down in price first.

It sure does, I fully expected that when I first laid eyes on the body though. And really it gives it character, it makes you use your noggin instead of just pummeling every obstacle it meets. I have already been kicking around the idea of making a new bumper to improve the approach angle and beef it up 1000%. The stock bumper is 1.5 mm thick and has already started to bend/curve. I noticed on one of the trucks in the promo videos the front bumper has been complete smashed to the point it now follows the shape of the front end (as thats what the bumper has been pushed into). you can see it here (the bent bumper) | |

Umm...dat's fast!  Looks fun, but I wonder how long the drivetrain would hold up to that abuse. |
