Thats pretty cool, wonder how the electronics will hold up. $650 seems a bit steep for a ARTR but the product, aesthetically, speaks for itself. Let us know how the 1/8 compares to 1/10 axial jeep.

For that price would it kill them to put some inner fenders on it too? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk |

good gawd that's pricey too much coin for my bank, but I wouldn't mind running it. I'm a fan of those larger scale rc crawlers But guess I'll be sticking with my 1/6 build. Cost way less... runs well. 12" action figures offer way more choices to boot Tho' I'm guessing the action figures are not included those not so true to scale action figures look as if they need be bigger - 9" tall. To me they look like 1/10 scale figures inside that larger 1/8 interior - 7.2" or near about. prolly awrite if they were 8 yr old kids heading for McDonalds !? Lol |

Wow just did the conversion, 25.3 inches long. It's hard to tell the size without i good reference. Would be great if they offered it in a kit form or without the rtr electronics to reduce the price. Wonder if it comes with the winch, because it is in some pictures and not in some. Definitely on my watched list for a sale.

Next you'll be saying the side mirrors don't have real glass in them either. Psssssstttttttt.... it's just a toy. Sticker door handles aren't going to effect anyone's enjoyment or its performance. I am however shocked they teamed up with someone else and paid for licensing to use their axles and wheels and tires and put together a dependable drive train. No matter how it's sliced, it's still Asiatees. | |
