Maybe the current strength of the Pound has something to do with the reasonable prices of the Fighting Buggy.

Quite a few changes from the original then.
Look at the rear monoshock mechanism.

Overall I'm quite happy I jumped the gun & bought an original fixer-upper ...

I see lots of detail changes, and the black chassis plates where always pretty likely, metal rod ends were never realistically going to happen, and the rear end looks to be beefier than the original - I don't think any of those would be a dealbreaker for me, if I was still in the market ... but the "LiFe" battery :sick: I hope that's not the only option for batteries in the kit :blink:

Hmmm like the steering setup, can use that for my other two SRBs.
Hope somebody will do a repro alloy version of that.

Like it a lot better already, looks quite excellent.
Battery tray's something I was searching for (extensively) not too long ago...

Wiki

The lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery, also called LFP battery (with "LFP" standing for "lithium ferrophosphate"), is a type of rechargeable battery, specifically a lithium-ion battery, which uses LiFePO4 as a cathode material. LiFePO4 batteries have somewhat lower energy density than the more common LiCoO2 design found in consumer electronics, but offers longer lifetimes, better power density (the rate that energy can be drawn from them) and are inherently safer.

Types of Li-ion batt.
