Default NEW New Bright JK

Well disappointed to say the least!#
Really New Bright, after the success of the first JK you would have thought you would have matched it or done better not less!!!

What is different with this body, is it the same size as the older version, it doesn't look like it has the detail the other one does.

Top one is the exact same size. 1:8 scale. Tires are a lot larger, I think that what might be shrinking the body visually

Yeah, I just dont' get the $150. You can order them on walmart.com with free site-to-store delivery. No driving around to search for the right one.

Correction: People have been paying a lot more than that for some time now. Based on what I see here, the price is going to go up on the older ones. Supply and demand.

You are absolutely correct, keep defending inflated prices on a new bright that is still available in stores.

The older New Bright JK's WITH a removable roof AND interior still go for $150 or more. This new one with no interior or roof shouldn't run more than you can buy it for at Walmart.

And remember, New Bright doesn't care about us lol.

I'll still probably scoop a new one up for spare exterior body parts for my older NB JK bodies or just to have.

The Walmart site shows 2 different styles. One like the green one with the "Wrangler" printed on the side, and don't appear to have the interior. On the website they also appear to have the older style with the full hard top and interior. They are going to $50 right now. I'm just going off the internet and the Walmart website. I ordered a blue and a yellow, one of each style. So we'll see what shows up.
