That's really nice. That's how I picture a Smogun - dirty, oily, greasy, grimy.

This would make a great side kick to the latest clear black hukkokudo re-issue.

Nothin' but SUPERB, motor!

This was made to be proudly displayed on a grimy, parts-covered desk in the ramshackle office of a junkyard owner...

That's great Motorbot! I have never been the greatest fan of Smogun, but this had really cast him in a new light.

As Plover said: dirty, oily, greasy & grimy!

Love it. Really suits him.

Yeah, interesting take on Smogun. Like Plover said, seems like how I would imagine him: oily, greasy dirty versus the bright colourways. Maybe the big guys could take this as inspiration and release some in a similar style.
