A storm is coming from Rlaarlo

[WickedFog]

Rlaarlo is releasing a new 1:10 scale buggy called the Stormbreaker, and you can watch the live introduction here.

They just released a quick unboxing. It's a really good looking buggy!

This would've been a banger if it was 1/8 scale. Ill be curious to see the wheelbase and track width.

 

[xjtorc]

Should have been a mini-truggy instead! But neat either way!

 

[Warby]

I see potential.

Was that a metal chassis??

It should be. They use a metal chassis on most of their newer stuff.

Rlaaro does seem to be a standout with the types of releases and consumer reaction (and I assume sales).
But this brand irks me too much, they run their business poorly. I can't bring myself to buy anything from them after their ordering support lied to me for weeks about inventory.

My take on Rlaarlo is they've nailed flashy marketing and locked down the influencer spectrum. Their new releases look very good. But, frequently, I hear things like what you mention.

A buddy of mine has a couple Rlaarlo rigs. The newest/most recent one he has is the Omni Terminator truck. I don't like the feel of the overall quality, it looks and feels cheap... but he beats the snot out of that thing, and it takes it, so the jury is out for me

What happened to the supposed 1/7 rally car based on the Mitsy evo.!!

I can't get past the name. Rebrand with a more 'English' name and I might consider it.

The R is silent like the j in injora is silent.

The R is silent like the j in injora is silent.

I feel like that makes it worse.

Which pronunciation are you implying:
lar-low
ruh-lah-low
lah-low

I like the ruh-lar-low pronunciation. Sounds like my dog when the mail man spends a sus amount of time at our mailbox.

The J is silent? I been saying that wrong for years.

ruh-lah-low
lah-low

Apparently it is pronounced “Larlo” ??

I could be wrong but I have heard that.
I still say it wrong.
3 words I will always say wrong:
Ol, coopun, injora.

 

[Doom!]

Looks cool, especially like the orange and black, but I'm not in the market for a 1/10th buggy.

Lime green shocks on an orange body. Did they clone Stevie Wonder for their graphic designer?

[Mrgoodwrench35]

The 'is' is silent...
