HPI’s Latest Large-scale Releases: Two Baja Kraken Buggies

Continuing their avalanche of vehicle announcements from the 2016 International Toy Fair, HPI not only unveiled a new small-scale vehicle in the Formula Q32 and a number of 1/10 scale on and off-road machines. They also have two new radio-controlled buggies that will satisfy those with a need for large-scale R/C car action.

The Baja Kraken Sidewinder X5 buggy is a collaboration between HPI and Kraken RC that pairs the Baja 5B buggy with the Kraken Sidewinder X5 roll cage conversion in one package. This nitro-powered sand rail can get 30-minutes of run time from a full tank, and features a number of option parts already included, such as upgraded driveshafts, hex hubs, and more.

The second 1/5 scale machine that HPI took the wraps off of is their Baja 5B TSK-b Class 1 racing buggy. This off-road buggy features many of the same upgraded components as the Baja Kraken Sidewinder X5, but with a slightly different, edgier design and graphics. Also nitro-powered, this vehicle is capable of the same 30-minutes of runtime as the Baja Kraken Sidewinder X5.

No price details have been released yet, but additional information and photos can be found on HPI’s website. Learn more about these new HPI Baja Kraken buggies at hpiracing.com and sign up for .
