Just to be sure I should have 5 separate items to catch a space bat?

Also the "scale bat" for the night stage, are we talking about a bat of the winged variety or the wooden baseball variety?

dbw, what you like explained?

10 scale items can include the mandatory tow strap, a Pull Pal, a lantern, what ever you want 10 scale item to be.

Scale adventure is super cool in the way it mirrors 1:1 off-roading. Driving ability and vehicle capabilities grow at different rates. The Axial RTR's meet this requirement by coming with scale items on the rig. Some come with drivers, some with interiors, shackles, & bumpers.

For a new driver with a "out of the box" scx10 RTR is ready to attend his or her first RECON G6 & have FUN!

I hope this helps. The G Crew looks forward to seeing you get your scale adventure fix, in the Axial Bats from Outer Space RECON G6 presented by;
