Default I am Confused

Okay, I am a bit confused. Are these being discontinued by Funrise? Is that why they are being sold so cheap right now @ Walmart? Just wanted to make sure, if so I will purchase at least one of the 1/18ths for indoor use.



Sorry if I missed something and asked a stupid question.

You would be better off buying a 1:6 scale instead of the 1:18. Most walmarts are selling the 1:6's for $49 while the 1:18ths are still $44.79 I've gotten two 1:6's and will probably never use my 1:18th again.......the big ones are so much fun

thats what I don't understand... why is the 1/6 selling so cheap and why are people buying them and selling on ebay for $100 +?

I would love another 1/6 and get a scorpion, but all walmarts around me are sold out cause of that very reason, and the locals that are selling are telling me $100 for a $50 truck! I figure for $100 I could get a tlt kit + servo and run my own electronics

the wal-marts around me have a few 1/6 jeeps for 140. no 1/6 scorpions. which means theyt have 2 jeeps and 0 scorps. as for the 1/18 they usually have 3 or 4 jeeps and maybe...maybe...1 scorp. which is central/south jersey
