Looks to be 1/8th scale, and yep she's nitro. Looks to be 2wd though?! Now stop teasing and release it already!

Add some panels to the rollcage, a set of paddles to the rear & a set ofrazors to the front and you have a sand buggy

No competition to the Slash, but it will be to the Slayer if it is 4WD.

Good catch Rob. I came across those this afternoon and was going to download them tonight - see you beat me to it.

Yup it is 2wd only. It is sick though, it will be fun to see these running with 1/8 buggys If only I had the money....

Kinda disappointing if you ask me, I wonder if it's going to be Associated's next MGT

I think I just found my next truck, that KMC Body w/ black wheels looks fantastic!

Yeah it sure is sweet, but can't believe its not 4wd... I really wish the Slayer wouldn't have been done on the Revo platform. Its too complex and expensive. They kinda priced themselves out. If they would have done it on the nitro Pede chassis, they could have sold them for $250 and would have sold a ton.

2wd? I would never guessed that AE would have done that esp w/ nitro. Electric yes, but not nitro.

I think I see driveshafts up front in the chassis pictures, just above the A-arm shock mounts. I cannot imagine it not being 4wd. I believe the Slayer has competition!
You have to look at the full size add (not much bigger) to get a better view.

Yeah I tend to agree, I can't see that they'd carry those front hubs huge enough to need 1/8 axle/wheel nuts if it wasn't 4wd - but I'm still curious why they'd put the investment into a nitro vehicle, which costs a lot more R&D wise let alone production costs, when the gas vehicle market is waning.

I like the bully dog truck the best. I like how they put mud flaps on the truck to.
