Awesome!!! Love the colors and that body!!! 😮
Great body choice! And what a great truck to put together. 😃🙌🏼
I love to build the things way more than drive them. I know its an expensive thing to do but I find it so rewarding!
95% build, 5% drive! The build is the hobby imo. That includes learning how things work and how to fix them, improve them, modify them. Running is fun of course!
You are correct - The phoenix did come with the VFD twin and portals. I got one of those when it first released, and completely loaded it with servos for the dig, OD and a winch. It is a beast!
The black and gold looks fantastic. I just bought a set of the LE green tanks and this might be the kit they end up on. I also thought of the John player special when I saw the black and gold. Couldn’t agree more with the 90/10 build drive split. For me, vanquish never disappoints with their kits.
Laying in a hospital bed recovering from gallbladder removal surgery watching this, great video as always Matt such a great kit man I need one lol. Love the black and gold so classy.
Same kit with straight axles and I by two in a heartbeat. Straight axles we want !!!
Great addition for those who missed out on the Origin. Happy to see Vanquish stick to their roots and offer this kit ! Another Home Run 🏆
Nice build and very smart livery. 80% driving, 20% building, BUT the never ending process of adjustment and replacement of parts, especially making my own custom parts is all part of the fun. I don't do Shelf Queens, all my RC vehicles are built to be driven all year round in all weather conditions. 1/8, 1/10, 1/12 and even the FTX Outback 3 mini 1/24 scale rig has been run all winter in mud, snow, rain and has taken part in many midnight crawl/trail sessions.
Wow love the paint jop especially the beautiful rims&tires set
That rig is tight like a tiger!
Kudos to vanquish for putting out another high-quality kit! I’m about the same, spending way more time in the workshop on my planes and trucks that out on the rocks or flying field.
That chrome on the window moldings looks rad!!
Gorgeous build. And yes, it is definitely 90% building. More like 99% building for us in these cold climates during the winter months
Loving the look of the JPS inspired paint job, looks great, lovely clean build, nice one.
Beautiful build. You hit the nail on the head 90% build 10% drive
I'm an 80/20 guy also; just finding more fulfillment and escape in the building process (and working on the scale park) than the joy driving as often, obviously still a blast tho. Pittsburgh invites only the brave and silly to gather round a campfire for some snow & ice crawling, so I fully understand waiting on the weather. Sidenote: at 12:35 you had one of 'those moments' and I feel ya, I get them going up the stairs sometimes. Its rather trippy...
I absolutely love the theme you went with. I’m a huge fan of Vanquish so I will be definitely adding this kit to my already huge Vanquish fleet. I’m currently up to 22 Vanquish crawlers and keep buying more. My only wish is that Vanquish would bring back the Origin which is the only truck I don’t have. Great video Matt
