@@michaelramsey82 they sent a bunch of aftermarket part suppliers including CCXRC cease and desist orders . They only want people to have the option of buying traxxas upgrades
@@rab.. They didn't send cease and desist to the suppliers. They went direct to the internet service provider. If they went to the supplier I'm sure they would've removed the products. Now they all had their entire business closed without warning or opportunity to comply.
It's amazing how many you idiots run your mouth and try to spread more hate into the hobby and you have no clue what you're even talking about pathetic it's a normal thing in the hobby for companies to send those type of letters if somebody infringes copy right All those lazy small car businesses need to do research on copyright before they start selling leading industry product parts and it was the web host like the other guy said that shut it down it had nothing to do with Traxxas shutting down their site If those lazy small businesses would have read their emails they would have never had a problem and they needed to comply with copyright laws retards You obviously have no clue and are new to the hobby
@@rab.. lmao no not what happened. If you actually listen to the suppliers who did not whine and do a touch of looking into they did not care about the parts being sold. It was trademark/copyright issues. Many suppliers are already back up and fixed the compliance issues and have the green light from traxxas. People jump on the hate wagon with 0 clue just follow the crowd off the cliff.
I’d been thinking for years “Traxxas should come out with a 1/24 but with their 2 speed” They missed out in years and years of that market. Then are outdone by a random company that’s killing it. I’m not even tempted by the trxm. And that was even before they acted like masses to a bunch of the content providers we love.
I think I'll be creating a "window" sticker for the back. It needs something there when it's in pick-up mode. It looks like FMS did a fantastic job again. Absolutely like the platform and love the K5. Appreciate your content as always. Cheers!
Thanks for another great video. I like the orange one, but I ordered the black one. I'm not even into crawlers or trail trucks, but I had to get one. It will look good next to my Max Smasher.
Great truck thanks for showing. I like the design options they give you. My favorite colour would be a light metallic blue, but the brown one looks best out of the three.
Hi! Absoutley love your videos and the black one is by far my favorite. Just ordered one and thank you for the promo code! This is my 5th FMS with my 4 yr old grandson running the smasher and loving it. Awesome product and videos. Keep up the good work please!
Thanks for opening the axles! Most promoters just show the obvious…I like to see the meat and potatoes. Lol! Plus the site shows metal spools so I guess those are coming later.
They are some really nice looking trucks. Problem is money, room, and that I have enough in the way of RC cars atm. Doens't stop me from wathcing this channel though.
They're not going to reach the states until next month looking forward to it. You can pre order but by the time Amazon sends it to you the warranty will have expired so I'l wait till they get here and the delivery time isn't a month away, great video Mate.
10:37 I'd mask out the back and paint a window in in black....if you wanted to get all fancy you could put some light grey vertical bars in the middle and make it a faux slider.
Hands-down the black one and I do have it on the way can’t wait I am stoked. Appreciate you sharing I do like the orange and white one also not sure about the other one. Watching now
I'll take one in each color thanks 🤩as i'm a stickler for licensed bodies thanks for sharing these Phil definitely a cracking motor in real life too and id say my favorite is the black too , cheers mate .
Looking good. The body looks nicely detailed. Saw a Blazer in Miami last week all beaten up, got a cool look to them. That has good control and did well on the course.
...it's terrible! Since few weeks I bought the Rochobby Magnum. The k10 and apache are also in my fms-fleet. And this? I fear I can't also not resist. And you are part of this fms-kathastrophy with your nice videos.🙈🤩
I'm not sure if you will see this question, but im wondering if the orange body is transparent like the TRX-4M Defender... otherwise ile go for the black beauty 🤗Thanks for sharing your review 👍...Harry
Hey, Phil, it just occurred to me that over time, as you've placed items on the walls in your shop, that quiet reverb you were concerned about is nearly gone. Admittedly, once you're outside there's an immediate difference but it's so negligible it just sounds natural, or expected. I just picked up a lavalier mic for my own vids & checking the reviews, the sensitivity drops off outside of 2 feet. If you want to make that reverb-drop seem even less obvious, have a .5 sec B-roll clip to run as a transition to outside. You have a bass guitar - I' do a Seinfeld-y sort of thing with that. (I seem to make a better teacher than a doer :-)
Great video! Really Like the brown & yellow striped combo & then the Orange, I did see a video on TH-cam earlier, that with it being the same chassis as the Smasher, someone put he K5 body on their Smasher, with the oversized wheels it looks ace with the K5 shell.
Thanks for all the information I'm going to take the brown one, it reminds me so much of the series "The Fall Guy! I will remove the rear hood and install the hoops with the headlight ramp Of course I will order the metal driveshafts at the same time to avoid breaking them!

Pretty sure it's 1/18
Comparing the wheelbase to the real thing, it scales out to about 1:20.
Discount code not working. I guess because the whopping $4 discount is plenty.
I want a "Beware of collision to avoid appearance damage" bumper sticker!
Defo
Haha
Explosion proof
Lol yes
If Traxxas didn't sink the 4-m with their actions last week FMS is shoving its head further under. Love FMS and they are killing it with the micros.
Wait, what happened with the 4m?

That orange and white is soo cool
i couldnt stop staring at the windowless back but wouldnt be too hard to remedy that, what a sweet release from FMS
If it's anything like the smasher there is a window behind the body. You would just have to cut out the body to expose the window
I’d agree with the black, looks great not many RCs are black.
Yes , so nice
I wanted to say thanks for the Hexmods review. I bought one for fun and have been having a blast. Keep up the fun reviews!
Yes definitely the black one. Wicked cool little rigs!
That's easily the best looking "1/24" truck out of the box. Can't wait to get the orange one
Even though it was a GMC, loving the Fall Guy colors. I like those FMS 1/18 wheels from the Hilux on there. Looks sweet.
I’d been thinking for years “Traxxas should come out with a 1/24 but with their 2 speed”

The brown one looks most classic
There were more yellow and orange ones with the white two tones than the brown but I agree with ya
That bright orange is screaming at me....soo tempted...
"No shipping could be found.." another $ saved 😉
Woke up to a flurry of videos from channels I am subscribed to on these. Needless to say your vid is first in the queue! Truck looks class.
some may consider the shocks a downside, but i actually love the way they look on the go!
I never thought I’d fall in love with an rc car so quick lol, that black one looks amazing
Great video Phil, awesome little vehicles!
Love having a solid 1/18 option with what all has happened in the last week.
I think I'll be creating a "window" sticker for the back. It needs something there when it's in pick-up mode. It looks like FMS did a fantastic job again. Absolutely like the platform and love the K5. Appreciate your content as always. Cheers!
The best fcx24 so far,love all the new improvements.
Whomever the lucky coffee club member is, you are getting a very capable 1/24th truck, enjoy !
Love the orange one! 💪🏻 awesome! 🛻
Orange! Love that colour. Another great video.
These look great for the money ! K5 Blazer, all time fav 👍
Thanks for another great video. I like the orange one, but I ordered the black one. I'm not even into crawlers or trail trucks, but I had to get one. It will look good next to my Max Smasher.
That is a super tidy course you've got there, Phil. Really shows off these rigs nicely, doesn't it. Quite enjoyed this video, thanks :)
The orange one looks amazing!
Great truck thanks for showing. I like the design options they give you. My favorite colour would be a light metallic blue, but the brown one looks best out of the three.
Nice looking rc. Good job Phil, keep up the great job you're doing... well done that man. John
7:04 piece of advice: put some cross bracing in the legs and some 3/4" ply and use that for storage under your crawler course.
Mine was delivered today! Can't wait to try it out and get some upgrades!!!
Ooo the orange one is killer! Been indecisive on a small scale because not many jumped out
A 1/24 Bronco vintage body black with the sunset would be cool to see for this.
Hi! Absoutley love your videos and the black one is by far my favorite. Just ordered one and thank you for the promo code! This is my 5th FMS with my 4 yr old grandson running the smasher and loving it. Awesome product and videos. Keep up the good work please!
The dark green withe mustard stripe looks very cool
Yeah they look so awesome out in the sunshine, I appreciate the video I’ll be watching for more
My brother and I fixed up my Dads 78 K-10 and drove it in high school in the 90’s. It got like 11mpg. God Bless MURICA 🦅✨🇺🇸👍
Imagine 11mpg with todays prices! More so in the UK!
Ordered mine in black. Can't wait to get my hands on it!
Thanks for opening the axles! Most promoters just show the obvious…I like to see the meat and potatoes. Lol! Plus the site shows metal spools so I guess those are coming later.
And I just ordered on thru your link! Thanks Tomley!
😎🤘🤘🤘
Have to say I like the Orange one the best.
That orange one is lovely looking.
Love the all black one
They are some really nice looking trucks. Problem is money, room, and that I have enough in the way of RC cars atm. Doens't stop me from wathcing this channel though.
That was a smart move to have four seasons on your indoor mini course. It provides a nice contrast to the vehicles you use on the track.
They're not going to reach the states until next month looking forward to it. You can pre order but by the time Amazon sends it to you the warranty will have expired so I'l wait till they get here and the delivery time isn't a month away, great video Mate.
Classic luv it. I had a black 85 k5 blazer with a 383 stroker motor in it bad ass truck 🤘
Nice!
Ordered brown one. Thanks for the discount code!
Awesome. Looks really good in real life. My camera makes it a little ‘off’ of you know what I mean
The brown was actually my favorite color of the 3!
The brown and yellow one reminded me of "The Fall Guy" truck.
Yes 👌
I love the Brown Variant, it remembers me on Colt Seavers Truck in the Fall Guy Series, it only needs a Eagle on the Hood...
Awesome ride and review, Phil!!! 😃
They really look beautiful! And ride nicely!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
hell yeah brother it's always good when tomley uploads
😎🤘
Oooooo that black one turned into a pick up would look so good .
Ps waiting patiently to see you run the Rlaarlo . Come on Phil
10:37 I'd mask out the back and paint a window in in black....if you wanted to get all fancy you could put some light grey vertical bars in the middle and make it a faux slider.
The all black one does look good. Great review as always.
Pre-ordered mine! Thanks for the discount code! I'm getting the orange one
No probs Mike
Hands-down the black one and I do have it on the way can’t wait I am stoked. Appreciate you sharing I do like the orange and white one also not sure about the other one. Watching now
I agree with trampledfading that the brown looks most authentic. But personally I like the all black one myself.
All black for me too. Brown looks better in real life… this camera makes it look a little green/brown at times
Awesome to see Missouri plate stickers.
Love the black one! They all look great
Seems that’s the most popular going by the sales so far
I'll take one in each color thanks 🤩as i'm a stickler for licensed bodies thanks for sharing these Phil definitely a cracking motor in real life too and id say my favorite is the black too , cheers mate .
Used your code and it got me an additional $7 off. Had to order me up one
Been holding out on purchasing any FMS. K5 exactly what I've been waiting for. Used your Discount Code today! Cheers.
Omg I want the black one soooooo bad
Another amazing FMS release. Got 2 on pre order already!
Orange one is my favorite color
Looking good.
The body looks nicely detailed. Saw a Blazer in Miami last week all beaten up, got a cool look to them.
That has good control and did well on the course.
It's hard to relate to these cars in the UK until I heard someone mentioned the tv series Fall Guy lol!!! I now want the brown!
the orange for sure!
...it's terrible! Since few weeks I bought the Rochobby Magnum. The k10 and apache are also in my fms-fleet. And this? I fear I can't also not resist. And you are part of this fms-kathastrophy with your nice videos.🙈🤩
I ordered a orange reminds me of my very first crawler which was the trx4 orange blazer also
100% gonna get one!
Normally I’d go orange but this body really suits the black on black..
Looks so good 🤘
Well, I'm about to buy my third fms it seems...I used to have a 79 k5 in the brown and white paint... going to have to pick one up soon.
Definitely going to get the black one
These look great!
great video, love the black one, love the comparison to the Traxxsuxx,
Nice timely release by FMS considering recent events in the rc world! 😅
favorite colour Brown n Yellow
They look great. I really like the all black and the orange/white one. And yes, they're definitely too big for 1/24 scale
Yes… I think the wheelbase is close to 1/20
love the black one love all of them but that black one looks dam good
😎🤘
My favorite one is the brown and yellow one
i dig the coffee bean gravel
I just love mine!
I'm not sure if you will see this question, but im wondering if the orange body is transparent like the TRX-4M Defender... otherwise ile go for the black beauty 🤗Thanks for sharing your review 👍...Harry
My first vehicle I ever owned was a Black 87 GMC Jimmy and that black one reminds me of that o'l truck.
favorite color is red but the black one looks nice
Very nice I’m thinking of getting a few, they look good for the shelf and fun to drive
I think im getting one of these, actually. The brown one looks cool

Awesome- these will sell like Hot Cakes - just went to pre order an Orange one ! Gone already- I’m sure they’ll do more 👍

Yes I saw that! Looks so good!
I like one ( Orange with White 😊😊😊)
The first FMS I don't like how they look. All others look real scale, but this one doesn't.
But great review as always.
i think you should make a rally style d32 or d22. would be cool
Definitely getting the all black one thanks for the discount code 💪
You’re Welcome Zack
@@TomleyRC They stated they was also sending me a birthday surprise wonder what it might be ?
Thanks for all the information
I'm going to take the brown one, it reminds me so much of the series "The Fall Guy!
I will remove the rear hood and install the hoops with the headlight ramp
Of course I will order the metal driveshafts at the same time to avoid breaking them!
The tires are licensed as well. I had them on a real truck 😂. Color Brown and yellow 👍🏼. Good vid
Yes… turns out they are the same as my Land Rover 😅
This thing is just too good
what happened to Tomley's trumpet?! haha! great job phil on the rigs..nicely done!
Haha… I forgot to add it. I was a bit pushed for time on this release
Been having a ton of fun with the Max Smasher since Xmas, was about to grab a Power Wagon soon but now definitely getting a Blazer instead.
