Carisma RTR 1/24 GT24B 4WD Off-Road Buggy


53HRA

Recommended Posts

I looked at the Kyosho Mini z buggy but its stupidly expensive for what it is. This should be similar sized, quicker and cheaper.

found mini z buggy weak an slow. Have few carisma models an luv em so have no fear in purchasing GT24b when cml releases onto market

good question,. even the LC racing 1:24 were expected to launch early last year.  Though Carisma get done what they say they'll do a lot faster,..

 

I would presume a Toy Fair appearance of this before going to market, so at a random guess May/June if they don't have any productions issues...?

This is from a toy fair so release date could be literally anything from tomorrow (if it was already in production and this was just a launch) to 'in time for Christmas'.

From the limited pictures, no shell off shot at all etc I'd say its not ready yet so won't be for a while.

 

BTW on pricing - looks to me like the green one has plastic shocks but the blue one seems to have alloy ones. I wonder if there will be a regular and 'pro' version which would bring the cost down for those that want a basic mini basher whilst also letting you build a micro bling machine if you want.

Missed that on first inspection, and looking a little closer, the blue one also has much thinner shock towers, possible carbon fibre parts maybe? 

 

EDIT - On closer inspection, threaded shocks and carbon tower are both there

Aghhh!  I missed the toy fair!  spewing :yucky:

 

Maybe I can get there for tomorrow,  hope my LHS fella is still there on the monday.

 

If I go I'll be asking to take some shell off pics for sure.  (they can be a bit fussy at times though :( )
