1/18 is quite a bit larger than 1/24 though. You can't really compare them. Sure, the 1/18th has better parts, but that is because they didn't have to scale everything down all that far.

1/18th is right in between 1/10 and 1/24. I would consider the Gelande a "mini" and the Proline a "micro" scaler.
Dimensions on both are actually similar. Color me intrigued
 
I actually like the body. It looks like an old International Scout, and I have great memories of those back in the '70s and '80s.

The interior detail is really quite nice.

When my wife askes what I want for Christmas this year. I think I'll tell her about this. Lol. I hope I never grow up.

Damn you, Lucky! If you ask for it, you'll get it, and then I'll have to get one. Since you're going to cost me more damn money, you're in charge of building the indoor winter course. :mrgreen:
 
Should fit off the shelf 1/25 scale model bodies. It's game on now...

Good info released during the Pro Line FB Live session that just happened. Said wheel and tire options are coming. This Digger conversion is pretty sweet. It's a 1/25th Digger body from one of the Monster Jam line of toys. Looks great. Fitting 1/25 bodies probably sold it for me.
 
Excited at the premise of proline accessories for it asap too. Keep the pics coming guys. I don't think anyone would mind more :)
 
I'm curious what brand the receiver will bind with. Anyone care to give a shot with a Spektrum that has one?
 
I've had mine for about a week now and I absolutely love it so far. Here are some pics I took after the first run.

Even includes batteries for the remote. My battery door was missing because they left it out after testing the truck but I now have it.

Looks like optional mounts? This is my first leaf spring truck and first hobby grade crawler as well.

Some in the center too. Move lower or back and forth too?

More up front

I think there's more flex now but not too sure.

Looks like adjustable body mounts, same up front.

Does anyone know where I could wheels that fit this? I want to try some of the rc4wd tires for the losi micro crawler. I also noticed that the fake beadlock can pop off. I'm not sure if its by design or what.

Edit: If you would like larger images for whatever reason click here. Also a word.

I only noticed it because one of mine fell off outside while driving. Luckily I found it but I just wanted to let others know about it. I emailed Pro-line about getting some more wheels and they said "Expect some spare parts to come when distributors and shops get Ambushes in stock- early October. Also, we should have a chrome wheel around then too." Looks like different beadlocks could be a thing.
