I think "meh" sums it up pretty well. Or a deep breath followed by a weak "yay".

As much as I appreciate the history and sentiment, and the interest in celebrating the old ASSociated RC10, I have to admit that there is no way in H E double squiggly-bits that is a good representation of the original. As a supported race buggy, sure, a nice idea for a paint scheme to bring the two fields together. As a 'full sized RC10', it's as big a disappointment as my current paypacket :oops:

It's no 1:1 Sand Scorcher or Wild Willy, that's for sure.

No, no, you guys don't get it. See, what they want is for everyone to break out the hacksaws and dremels and start cutting their tubs down to look like this, that way when they do re-re the RC10, the parts won't be interchangeable. :mrgreen:

I was looking forward to this, all they needed to do was modify a Funco buggy.

I demand to have a correct 1:1 RC10 for my new shelf. That and a full sized AT-AT will be my first purchases after wining the lotto.
