TWINSET Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 TRC is releasing one of the most sort bodies in scale crawling - first generation Range Rover This is a 1/10 Rover First Gen hardbody with a 313mm wheelbase. The body needs to be assembled together. Strong plastic ABS material for durability and strength. Front hood and doors on both sides open. Rear window and door open separetely in two pieces. We've mounted the body on an Axial SCX10 II for your reference. Four bolts will lock the body securely in place. To give a better size comparison, we've put the new Range Rover body next to a Killerbody Toyota LC70. The size is very similar in terms of total length, but the shape of the Range Rover is much rounder than the LC70 making it look bigger. Size: Height: 165mm Width: 205mm Length: 540mm Weight: 1100 grams Includes: Metal door hinges Body mounts for SCX10, SCX10 II and TRX4 Front side mirrors Front & rear LED light lenses Front & rear LED light buckets Front & rear bumpers Hardware Comes unpainted in white color. Estimated ship date: On or before December 31, 2018 Original Source: https://www.facebook.com/igified/ View full news article 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINSET Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) Is 1100g bad? LC70 is stated as nearly 3kg on A/T https://www.asiatees.com/display?Miscellaneous-All-Parts-Hop-Ups-Upgrades&brand=Miscellaneous&model=All&id=132198 Edited November 9, 2018 by TWINSET 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

53HRA Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Someone has already scratch built one to perfection, however I think this will be a massive hit and it’s about time it arrives on the market. Love it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't for thrashing about over some rocks with a brushless system 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's what happens when you do business in the east.....where they really that naive to think the Chinese wouldn't re sell their ( or should I say land rovers ) intellectual property...?? They've been doing it for decades to companies like apple to BMW.... Also, not seeing that either of these is officially licensed? Which if it isn't.... Means both JS and Team Raffee are generally infringing on land rovers I.p..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWINSET Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 Regarding the seller issues (From JS Scale FB page) Quote JSscale keeps the exclusive sales for the Range Rover Classic body for now. We talked with Jason Tsang from Asiatees / Team Raffee. It was a miscommunication from the manufacturer, not from him. Jason is a great person and very professional. He's passionate like we are. The issue has been solved between the 3 partners, and now the first bodies have already been shipped. Stay tuned for a live session next week ! Thank you all for all the love and support you showed us yesterday , we had tons of messages !! So, buy it here; https://www.jsscale.net/1-10-range-rover-classic-abs-molded-body-f454059.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Thats a big price difference https://www.asiatees.com/display?id=154591&brand=Miscellaneous&model=All Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 And all the while Charles Spencer King will make nothing off any of them. I wonder if JSscale are actually licenced and paying royalties to LR? If so, then it would explain the price difference and them getting their knickers in a twist.

capri-boy Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Maybe, but if they weren't there's prob not a lot they can do cost effectively - afterall JLR couldn't stop the sale of the blatant evoke rip off the land wind thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
