Just picked up our latest model! It's a 1:6 scale. I have not tried it yet. Just got home so not charged up. Does not have Lo Range :-(

But it's big! Nice colors, too and of course, our logos!

Here's a quick photo of it and one of it in the back of an H3 for size...

Found it at Toys R Us tonite

From what i saw yesterday the suspension is the same except for the addition of 2 shocks on every corner, and the way they mount. They mount with screws. The tires are the typical cheesy big truck no name style. The one i saw yesterday was black with red it looked sick.

Are those the same underpowered axles that are on the 1/10th under... a heavier body? no thanks.

If these axles actually have some balls, I might get one, but if they are the same as the old ones... yuck.

Here's a litte comparison. I tried it out with a half dead battery. This thing has some dangerous speed in the house. lol Much more than the smaller one. The front suspension set-up is extrememly odd. I will take close-ups tonight to explain, but it is different. The tires suck. The 4wheel drive isnt as grabby as the smaler one. The front steering doesnt return very well. But again this was with a almost dead battery so alot may change later tonight. I will post some action shots later.

Much larger axles

New stickers and tail light guards

Odd front suspension, It has dual pivots. Same style pivot as the smaller one and the rear of the large one except the axle pivots on the steering box which in turn pivots on the body


Lastly I was just at target and saw this monster. It is a new bright and has the exact same suspension setup as the jeep. Except this takes 2 much more powerful 19.2v batteries. Claims Hobbie grade electronics and 100+ scale mph

Mr. darksyde ...thank you for the photographs... the dogbones and the cups are made of plastic or metal ? ...… would it be good for the slow-crawling ??

The bones and cups are plastic. As for slow crawling it will go slow with the proportional throttle, however the tires absolutely suck.

As for a body swap from what I could see it looked as a direct match for mounting screws.
