    Carisma Scale Adventure SCA-1E Lynx ORV 1/10th 4wd RTR Truck

    The second vehicle on the new SCA-1E platform is here……………….

    Introducing the Lynx ORV – Outbreak Response Vehicle

    In late 2017 a global pandemic struck the earth. Within 72 hours the airborne virus had been carried in the upper atmosphere, and in what’s now described as Lazarus Rain, fell, and infected over 70% of the population. The living quickly died, and then rose again. The already dead (and mostly buried) …well, let’s just say they didn’t stay like that for long. Three keywords were broadcast repeatedly on all available channels, and in every language known to man.
     
    Avoidance, Termination & Disposal.
    Instructions for carrying out each stage were dropped in their thousands as leaflets by cargo transports, flown remotely from bunkers deep underground. Those who chose to heed the instructions had a chance, although slim to get to the rapidly depleting safe zones dotted around the planet. Those that didn’t, or couldn’t bring themselves to terminate loved ones, quickly succumbed to the already infected.

    RTR (Ready to Resist)
    To help survivors, the remaining living world leaders trained their elite military personnel to form ORV Units. These mobile Outbreak Response Teams were equipped with specially designed LYNX Outbreak Response Vehicles. Heavily armoured, Hybrid 4x4’s, packed with enough tech and weaponry to both locate, terminate and dispose of even the most aggressive of the undead.

    With a high intensity light bar, waterproof cab and snorkel equipped engine, even the deepest rivers or flooded inner city streets won’t stand in its way. The permanent 4x4 system, with locked diff’s, high torque motor and gearing allows the LYNX to climb or descend even the steepest of inclines. The true 4-link suspension with threaded big bore, oil filled, coil over shocks, soaks up any terrain, the High Torque steering components keep it headed in the right direction (or away from trouble). The LYNX even includes optional LED downlight buckets to ensure you can see attacks coming from all angles…even below.

    Designed to Survive Any Onslaught
    The addition of true Beadlock wheels mean that weight bias can easily be adjusted, and the aggressive multi-terrain tyres suitable for Off and On Road Zombie chasing. The body has additional detailing like Roof Rails, a Spare Tyre Carrier, Rear View Mirror and GPS/Dashcam. The distinctive livery is unmistakable, once you see a LYNX ORV in the flesh (however decomposed yours may be), you will never forget it.

    I'm not a fan of that shell, not sure what they were thinking with this? Will they be selling us zombie dolls to mow down with it?

    Glad I've got the pickup body. 

    Would be nice if carisma brought out some vintage inspired bodies for the sca-1e platform.

    Truck itself looks half decent!

     

    I suppose they found a hook and ran with it....

     

    A doff of the cap to them I suppose....

    Lose the decals, start with a clear lexan shell and it's not too bad - kinda looks like a g-wagon if you squint a bit.

    Proportions yes, but just too square.

    Don't think you'd see Lewis driving one of them!

    Chassis looks decent, as stated.

     

    Body looks like a New Bright reject.

     

    Al.

    I like it. Paint the arches on the outside, add a mesh over the windscreen and styrene panels over the windows it would look hardcore.
