Krawlin: They kept the bullet in Europe, I'm not familiar with the history of the Vorza though.

Just remember that the "Small Scale Savage" pictured is just a prototype model, it may end up coming with an aluminum chassis, not enough info about it out yet though. I'd have to agree with E-Revonut though, I'm sure those plastic TVP's would be plenty beefy enough for that.

Yeah, and judging by the bumps on the plastic my best guess would be that the parts were produced with a 3d printer, so the materials on the prototype might not even be close to what you see on the real thing. Even if the TVPs are plastic, it wouldn't turn me away. It will probably still be plenty stiff since it has a gearbox, receiver box, and probably an esc tray to brace it.
