Default AX10 history?

I've been out of this hobby for many years (since 2009) and am confused.

I have an Axial AX10 Scorpion ARTR #AX90004.

EXACTLY what current model from Axial is the newer better version of what I have? Was there anything in between; are we now on gen 2 or gen 3?

Help please, thanks in advance.

Generation two included the AX10 Ridgecrest, followed by the AX10 Deadbolt. Both have since been discontinued. Apparently Axial comp-style crawlers have been replaced by the rock racers series e.g., Wraith and Bomber.

Yeah, nothing. Sad.

Well I guess the XR10 but that's gone too.

Everything from Axial seems to be more scale and thrash oriented, not competition. What the heck happened to the crawler industry?

I'd love it if Axial sold an out of the box, but better XR10 again.

Crawler niche was always super small. Doubtfully profitable. A fad as we said for years and years. Axial tried then probably realized something. Thus continuous scalers with just different bodies.

The stock crawlers were always junk anyway. All you need is a set of axles and a trans, the rest of it is garbage. I inventoried by 3 axial rigs and figured I don't have enough parts between them to make 1 complete rig anyway and I don't have superblingtanium stuff either.
