Just bought two of them a couple nights ago. Thought the price was a little steep for $270 but it’s 100% worth it. Love the fact I can rip it around the house too

Be careful with jumps or backflips though. I found out the hard way how fragile the headlights are on my Sonuva. Other than that I love this thing and it’s well built.

Buy one! Trust me you won’t regret it. I initially felt exactly as you do. I was like $269, hell no! Then I warmed up to it the more reviews I watched and I’m so glad I went ahead and bought one. One thing I will say is the headlights are fragile! What happened was totally my fault, but early on during mild bashing I broke off the right headlight lens cover.

Great video as always Mark! I just wanted to comment about the price and market for the LMT minis. The price is high, but solid axle monster trucks are very expensive in general. As far as the market, truck definitely has a home with the MT racing leagues. We already have a few guys ready to race them.

In AMains defense, Horizon kept pushing the drop date back further and further. In early December the wording on Horizon was changed to "Shipping in December". Knowing Horizon all too well by now, I know exactly what that wording meant, and cancelled my pre-order at my LHS, because I knew it wouldn't get here before Christmas, and got my son something else. Horizon and all of their prime distributors also used a lot of "December" in their language about shipping, to give the false impression of a before Christmas delivery. When they knew full well it wouldn't be here until New Year's. I am incredibly disappointed in how Horizon handled this release. But that seems to be par for the course for all of their divisions over the last 2 years.

I’ll admit, when these first hit KZbin a while back, I was one of those who thought $269 for a 1/18 scale RC, no way! Then I did my homework and watched a ton of reviews. I broke down and bought Sonuva too when they hit my hobbytown December 15th. And man, I love this thing! Do I still think $269 is kinda steep, well, yea. 🤷🏻♂️😂 But I don’t regret buying it. The only weakness I’ve found is the headlights. Trust me if you bash this thing even mildly hard you’ll risk breaking the headlights. You bashed yours hard and broke both headlights. 🙁 I broke my right headlight lens off during a backflip. Totally my fault 100%. But, I was really bummed at how easily it seemed to break. Luckily my hobbytown took care of me and warranteed it by replacing the body for me with the light kit so I didn’t have to wait until replacement light kits became available. Now I’m actually so cautious I have soft bumpers and pads set up EVERYWHERE in my basement where I drive it. I also like how fast the little USB smart charger charges the battery. Mine charges in about an hour or less. The best part is how cool the motor stays. This thing has no cooling fan or heat sink. Yet I’ll run a complete 15-20 minute battery pack through this thing and the motor is barely even warm! I also have the Arrma Grom, and today picked up the traxxas Teton. Never thought in a million years I’d start having more fun with the mini RC’s than my regular 1/10 and 1/8 scale stuff. 😂 Great video, Mark.

I love my King Sling LMT. It looks great sitting on the shelf. It sits there a lot because it's terrible at being a RC. It's fragile, handles terrible, and isn't particularly quick or fast. The terrible handling makes it seem faster than it is. If you enjoyed playing in straight lines in mud on flat ground it'd be great. Other than that it is a great shelf queen. I still love it. I got it on the father's day sale for $529 or i wouldn't be so forgiving. All that being said i have no use for a smaller, slower one. Especially one costing this much.
