WPL RC launches C74 Jimny RTR — first 1/10 scale C series, Suzuki-licensed

WPL RC is an unknown brand to this show's history and explicitly flagged as never having appeared. Despite genuine novelty signals (first C series 1/10 model, Suzuki license, new leaf spring chassis) which would normally support a solid crawler/trail score of 70-95, the brand-unfamiliarity guidance caps this well below that range. It's a licensed RTR trail-style crawler with real launch framing, so it's not a routine catalog variant, but the instruction to stay at or below 55 for unknown brands
