ROCHobby Mashigan RS Scale R/C Trail Rig [Photo Gallery]
I've got a soft spot for well-designed, super-scale R/C vehicles. Even if they don't perform as well as others in my collection, they have their charm and personality that's hard to ignore. The ROCHobby Mashigan RS is one such vehicle.
Decked out with an injection-molded, hard plastic body with more attention to detail than I can keep track of, it's quickly become one of my favorite trail-roaming rigs. As it wobbles and bobbles over bumps and obstacles, it's hard to ignore its classic off-roader beauty.
Here are some of my favorite photos of this model in its pure stock form. While I've got upgrades and customizations planned for it, it's loving life as a box-stock machine for now.
