Maybe. I don’t love when there’s not much room for more than one passenger on vehicles.
 
The Swampfire, like the Dreadnok Cycle is deceptively big. It is at least on par with a Sky Hawk size wise. I would love to see it in Classified but I fear that in the new retail reality it would be closer to $100 than $60. Still it is a fun vehicle and I would be down for one.
 
Again, a Dreadnok vehicle should sport a Dreadnok logo, rather than a Cobra logo. This vehicle has a less “homemade” feel to it then other Dreadnok vehicles. Many of their vehicles, while functional, look like they were assembled from spare parts. That’s the aesthetic I’ve come to expect from Zartan’s crew. So this one ends looking to “clean”.
Would I buy? Possibly. It depends on the final product, and of course the price tag. I might be tempted though, particularly if they could scale it down closer to a FANG.

I don't love it when there isn't at least 5 foot clearance from rotor at 500 rpms with no canopy. But of this thing skims across the swamp, why have a rotor up top?

Isn’t it supposed to be both? It has pontoons that shift upwards when it’s in helicopter mode. I agree about the rotor danger coupled with no canopy. It’s insane, but it’s how this IP rolled.
