The image of the Komotto jeep is up on Smyths:
It's a curse jeep which was needed. The missile rack from the original is gone and is replaced by a large cannon.

Ive added the new pics in the top post.

Thanks for that!

I wonder does the role bar lift up to allow figures to be put in? The whole grey upper structure is lose fitting, maybe it all comes off? 

Also hoping that is the cannon is removable and that is the standard Landard weapons mount so we can add different weapons.

A reminder of the original Komotto:

Check out Tycondrius Fitz's review of the new Komotto. 1st review on youtube. Good review, well done man.

So I was a bit sceptical of some aspects of the styling of this jeep from the pictures. But actually after getting my hands on it I think it is very good. Great in fact for the price. It works as a futuristic attack jeep. younger kids will get it straight away and there is also lots of potential for cool post apocalyptic mods.

The L&S cannon is fun and has a lot of play value.  But as shown in Fitz's video it comes off. The weapons mount is unfortunately not the same mount as other Corps vehicles. But it is the same diameter which means it should be a relatively straightforward mod to mount other lanard weapons. 


Or you can run with no gun....



This rocket launcher fits in really neatly with no mod needed:



The Corps Missile launcher looks good too. But this one is just resting on the mount. It needs a mod to be fitted:

Here is a picture of the mod problem to solve for the missile launcher (and other weapons like the dual cannons and quad cannons):

I've said this as have others, I really wish Lanard would include a Decal Sheet for the other side, or paint the other side. I understand kids don't really care on a global scale. and I get if you're not going to open it, then you'll never see the unmatched non-detailed side, but it is my one gripe on an otherwise perfect reuse. I have reached out to lanard on this very topic and hope that maybe we can even get downloadable decals that as fans we could print out on vinyl or on waterslide paper. Thanks for the pics and review pedninja.

Agreed. Decals would be great whether in the pack or downloadable. Particularly Curse stuff, this is a great:
