Have Toys, Will Travel


Hope everyone had a good holiday.  Ours was pretty good, but hectic.  Seemed like every other day, we were packing up our twins and heading off in a different direction.

Always a kid at heart, I try to bring toys with me whenever possible.¬† Usually, it’s just a tiny Losi Micro-T, or a Traxxas Slash.¬† This time, I decided to bring along the big guns – some 1:5 HPI Bajas!¬†¬† I’m running one of the new ProLine Desert Rat and Excavator tire-Desperado wheel truck¬†conversions on my HPI Baja 5b SS kits.¬† It is AWESOME!¬† Check out the ‘before’ and ‘after’ pics…it’s an entirely new¬†rig.

Lucky for me, these fit perfect into my Yakima rooftop luggage carrier.¬† Keeps them out of my twin toddlers reach, and my wife never even knows…until I break them out at our destination!

These made the rounds, and were enjoyed by many family and friends over the past few weeks.
