I was JUST going to ask about this. they both appear to be 1/10th, I have a Traxxas TRX4 and am looking for that exact polycarbonate R1S body (doesn't appear to be 3D printed). Any info would be awesome.

Edit: The radio appears to be a Spektrum DX3 - looks like some Losi, Axial and Arrma's come with the DX3, but nothing comes up in a search... given the matching Riv wheels, its most likely a one off collab by one of them.

Axial do a range of rock crawlers with licensed Jeep bodies so it would be cool if they got a Rivian license too.

Based on how freaking fast the cars from Spektrum go this has gotta be a one-off customization using off the shelf parts and not something upcoming. If I let my kids navigate one of their Arrma's indoor on a raised platform inside a Rivian pop-up, we'd be calling the PDR guy for the giant dent in the R2 ten feet away.

Not the rock crawlers. They would be perfect for what the kids are doing in these photos. Axial RC Adventuring | Remote Control Cars, Trucks, and Buggies Plus RC Parts | Axial Adventure

Let me guess... it's a 2 year waiting period to purchase, and then when it's time for release, they'll randomize the reservations and trickle them out to customers....

Just wait for the class action against Rivian for promising RC cars and misleading buyers on availability.
