I want one real bad.

I got to fondle the box at Hobbytown a couple of weeks ago. Sucker was heavy.

Don't hold out on those build pics.
 
Can you believe how frigging heavy the damn kit is?
I'm thinking they tossed a few bricks in the box to make it look like a good value by sheer weight.

MORE PICS YOU LUCKY SOB!
 
You lucky bastard! Man I really want one of them. I guess I will live vicariously through your build pics.

And sure, you posted pics of that boring ol box :whack:

All kidding aside enjoy the build man, that's a bad ass kit! Congrats!

I was all alone with this pacakge for several hours before I packed it up.
I will tell you, I did "Just a little more" then just fondle it. :whistle:
 
The Box is heavy! The black box you see in the bigger box is filled to the top with all the steel parts...Ill dig every thing out and take a pic here in a few..
Once again Eddy thank you!

Joe Sorry Bro the pic's got deleted.....
 
What a lucky dog you are! A full blown build thread is mandatory with this rig. Congrats bro!
 
Looks sweet! Have fun with Tamiya's instructions.. There a bitch..lol..
 
I can't wait to see what kind of work happens with that body! I hope it won't be another boat type of deal...
 
Sweet.
I haven't built a car or truck from a kit. Been wanting to try one.

Good luck with it bro. Looking forward to the pics.
 
The build has began..
Started the tranny.....This took about an hour and a half..
The first pick is just why the box weighed so much.Bags of steel...

Gotta love all that over engineering they are do famous for.

I have built a few kits and this by far has more parts.And is more detaled than I thought it was going to be....the tranny alone took more time then I thought..And Its still not done.
 
It's a beauty no matter how ya shake it. I've been wanting a King Hauler for quite a while....
 
I was just watching some youtube videos of this thing. It's huge, looks like an awesome project.

I don't suppose they make a Chevy equivalent of this thing eh? If they do I would consider getting one :D
 
They do make a Chevy Equivilent one to that.. Its called the T maxx.. ;)
 
Nice rig big dog! Will it remain stock or does it have a future as a crawler?
