Nice looking but 16.5k is a jip.

Could get a high end custom plus the same parts for a lot less.

yes been posted before. Didn't know the price. I'd buy one as 1 of 25 I wonder if sold out

I like the paint scheme and the typeface that the word "Vandeyk" is written in.

But aside from that, I think it's nothing but an unrideable, pretentious piece of "art" whose high price tag is justified only by the limited production run.

I'd rather have LGF's Saracen Protrax.
