Squarebody Blazer fans. You gotta see this

[Mike C.]

I stumbled onto this while searching for !/24 Blazer model builds on youtube

 

[Mike C.]

I'm not an RC guy but I wouldn't mind having one of these just to sit on the shelf. I went on the site but couldn't find out anything at all about it. 

[vincen47]

Now that’s cool.

[Mike C.]

Can't seem to find any info about it on the Google. I'm guessing it costs a small fortune or something.

[Mike C.]

I like the figurines inside.

[Don Sikora II]

Awesome!

[Khils]

Talented operator as well!!  Didn't roll it & managed its obstacles quite well.

Sorry, I had a flashback.

Excellent little video! It reminds me of my 4-wheeling days in the Whiteshell area of the Canadian Shield…and the Dakota Territory Challenge.?

I can remember another video years ago it may have been that same rock in Utah but it was a first gen Blazer, the brakes went out and It came down and did the same thing only in reverse ?. It was on some T.V. show. Been looking for that vid on youtube for years.

[Mike C.]

Has anybody had any luck finding any info on this thing? The video seems to be from the U.K.

There are 2 more vids. He does manage to roll it over in one but keeps right on going. I've seen the big scale ones bu never a 1/24.

Tiny4x4.com has all the parts except for the body. I assume that you can use a model body.

Thats the one I found. Must be an older one that they don't make anymore or something.

This Blazer does better in some situations than a 1:1 when crawling over some of the rocks. 

[Mike C.]

Finally found something on it. As I suspected, its a little pricy for my taste..............

But it’s got free shipping in the US.?? That one in the link is not 1/24 scale. It is almost 20” overall length.

[Mike C.]

I didn't notice that. Must be a different one. One in the vid says 1/24.

[Oldcarfan27]

Is this the same truck?https://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/rc4z-b0092.htm

I just found the site today, but I couldn't get any info on scale.

If it's 1/24th, that's some great detail! Might even be worth it just for the body parts.

Might!

That one is 1/10th scale.

Yes, it looks like the Geko GK-24 chassis (out of stock?) would be the best bet for 1/24 or 1/25 scale. You could add whatever body you like.? Likely what the guy in the video did?

This thing is leaving us with more questions than answers. Maybe thats their plan, keep everybody in the dark to create a buzz to get us hooked. ?

sorry nothing to add about the Gecko other than it seems to be older and pricey, maybe one of these for less than 150 ready to run and do a body swap these are all 1/24
