Proline Bulldog B4.1
 
Ok, so I'm a little confused. I was under the impression that Proline made a running change with the B4.1 bulldog body.

Here's the old one: (longer rear cab, less curved window, lower sides, etc.)

Newer style:

Can anyone confirm that proline did make a running change? do you know when it occurred?

Don't know, either way still the ugliest.:nod:

Muggydude 02-28-2011 05:29 PM

Haha I like the new one. The old one sucks.

They must have made a change. I noticed this with my D8T also. I was looking at some other truggies at the track and the sides and cab are slightly different there as well.

There was a pic on RC Insider of the new body with Cavalieri testing it before the Reedy race. They were calling it the V2, so I would assume it would be a running change. I think the new version is better looking and doesn't look like it's stepped on.

Yep. I think one guy ordered the bulldog a little over a week ago from amain and he got the newer one. I'm going to call proline tomorrow and see when they started supplying the newer ones to horizon.

To me It looks like the b4.1 and the b44

My friend Scott ordered one 2 weeks ago from amain and he for sure got the V2 body.

nope. The two b4.1 bodies are completely different from the b44 body. And notice the rear motor?

I'll probably order one from amain then.

Just give them a call. They have excellent customer support and will make sure a V2 gets shipped to you.

I did, they had no idea and no clue about any change in the body design. I may send them a email with pics to help.

If you order direct from us, you will be guaranteed to get the new one. It will be hard to make sure you will get the new one from other sources.

I am not to crazy about the body. IMO the body belongs on a truggy only. Certain designed bodies fit certain rc's.

IMO they were ugly on a truggy too.

I'd have to agree with you:nod:
