$660, and it doesn't even come with a mamba monster? just the cheap sidewinder 8 come on. I might wait and pick up a roller from ebay.

Don't forget tax around $50.

I agree. I converted my 3gallon roller (Basically new), Motor: Traxxas XO-1 1650kV, ESC: Traxxas MXL-6S, motor plate etc. for Roughly $685.

I am just happy that Losi is continuing with this awesome platform. Looking forward to reviews.

I'm dying for one of these, but I'm also contemplating leaving the hobby.... So torn as to what to do.

Well, I've got mine home and unboxed this evening. I prefer Deans, so I've made that swap. Weather permitting, I will get it out tomorrow for it's maiden voyage.

First impressions...
1) Upon opening the box, I was a little surprised at the shade of blue on the body. All of the pics I've seen to date make the blue look like a medium royal blue (or at least that's what I interpret). It's not....mine is most definitely a dark teal. Obviously no biggie, just thought I'd mention it.

2) I may have totally missed it, but I was not aware it would come standard with sway bars front and rear...so that was an added bonus.

3) My truck weighed 12.6lbs on my scale.

4) It may prove me wrong, but I just don't see this tiny little ESC keeping up with the truck long term. I guess only time will tell, appearance wise, it's puny looking.

I will see if my wife will be a good sport and take some video tomorrow when I take it out tomorrow.

Yeah, I did see the discussion about it and seeing it in person really drives home the point.
I can take pics of whatever you want. Anything in particular?
