About £238.00 imported assuming you get caught for import duties and taxes which being shipped by Axial,I'm assuming it will be. Hmmmmmm. :ack:

In which case, the above comments are moot. Not paying that for an 18th scale rig.

Knowing Axial it's all a marketing thing, give it 6 months and they will get a worldwide release 

I hope you're right. I'd like one but not at 240 sheets.

Considering the £200 price tag of the mini gelande 2 Land Rover, I think it's a fair price, it's got 10th scale electrics so power will be a broader choice, nice size and good parts back up.

 

Anyway,

I thought it had a 380 can?

That's more 14th scale?

I might be wrong, may have misread.

Chalk and cheese with the Mini G2 though, can't compare :P

I definitely want one mind you, but with the 1/10th Yeti being not much more really, I wouldn't go £240 myself.

Well dan I could have been wrong on the motor, looks big for a 18th scale though (comparing to a maverick ion for example)

 

it it was meant it's a lot of money for not a lot of size kinda comparison but yeah deffo different as are their full sized counterparts.

 

agree with you there, no point if you have the big one, but space and just a quick bash kinda cars if you don't have one (I don't) seems appealing to me.

I know it's advertised as a 380 40t brushed can, I don't know of any 10th that run a 380, but that's the bit I'm not 100% sure of, I suppose something might lol.

I still want one, even though I have a big one... But knowing how good the big one is, it seems odd to pay so much for something smaller... To me, the outdrives look suspect as well, all plastic, doubt they'd last long :lol:

I'll await a UK price, if they do sell it in the UK before decising.

Anything over about £180 and I can't see it being popular.

Looks good, If you remove the crappy electrics I think it could be at lot of fun. As long as it's not over £179 I think that it could be very popular. I wonder how it will cope with a brushless system?
