What's that? a Nikko?

based on the new colours they use; Looks like traxxas invested in a lot of grey plastic...

Looks alright. Traxxas is really going crazy with that new colour! ;)

i think its dumb, but this means a new e maxx, e revo, or 4 tec is all thats left so looks like theres going to be some new stuff soon.. id say a lil after the bandit is in stores but i could be wrong

the t-maxx 3.3 was launched about a year ago now.. we all held our breath for the e-revo.. most of us suffocated..

that was the whole nitro line, now the electrics are getting done

We need both an E-Revo and a new Emaxx, A E-Jato would be nice as well

sweet about time but i dont know anybody who would want a bandet to be honost becuase if the want a basher they would go rustler and if they would want a buggy for racing (usually not the main choce for bashing) they should go with the losi or even the duratrax one for around the same price

how fast is it beings that is lost some meat becuase of the smaller tires and less chassis weight and mass i think

It is supposed to go 30+mph.

Who!? you and me?!

I think Rene has enough toys for now;)

yeah, most likely.. need more time!!

i think they will do a new emaxx but i dont think it will be brushless i think they will take two of the new 12 turn titans and run them on a super duty since that is the lowest turn it can handle and that just happens to be the amount of turns in the new motors and they will deck it out in grey and add revo slipper and sliders

Here is my opinion. They wasted time on the e rusty, pede, and now bandit. They are brushed anyway, and to make them BL, you have to do the whole thing all over. They probably won't do a Jato becuase of the pede and rusty. The bandit was probably done for the "beginner" types. And really, if they do everything electric, we would have nothing to convert.

no i really have to disagrre with u new.. the pede and rusty was GREAT!! and there a very hot seller where i live so i think thats was very good, i dont like the bandit because its a rusty with a different body and wheels,and tires

Hey, that's ok that you disagree that they are junk.....I was stating my O P I N I O N. But really, what could I use any of them for? Nothing, except street driving, or have my 5 year play with them for the most part. A rusty would drag too much at a construction site, a pede that is two wheel drive would have poor traction at the same location. But if you were to put a BL system, then they would be worth something...that is....if you upgrade everything. If I were to buy a pede or rusty, I would go the FLM style....and really build it.

mayby u will like my pede then =)

When did traxxas launched that one? :)

i see it comes with an MM?

decmeber 25th =) and yeh babby it comes with a mm, it even came with a 8 cell pack lol a few to be exact lol

Amen!

lol yeh thats is very true:018:

Are you missing part of the slider in the rear right

well when i ordered all my flm parts i got the ext flm dog bone kit and i ended up getting stock size arms so they didnt work and this was pics inbetween the time i put all the stuff on and get some new parts and all

All I have to say is that the new Bandit is UGLY!!!

My thoughts for traxxas are the fllowing:
1) e-revo
2) redone e-maxx
3) e-jato
4) mini e-revo :004: lol

if there was a mini e revo i would first

crap my pants
scream like a girl
then sell everything i need to so i can get 2!!:D!! jk on the pats part but i would FLIP!!

imagine a lil mini trans with dual 370's and 2 batts on each side and ahhhh:043: :043: :004: :004: :004:

Indeed, I do, but it is an FLM Pede as my point earlier was "redo" them. My point is, the brushed motors and how "Traxxas" does them is not the best IMO. They could ustilize their time and marketing better is my point to this. Instead of taking the time to redo the bandit, would you not agree that they could better use their time and redo the maxx, or something else, or even....come out with a whole new product other than putting new style of tires on an old truck?

no i dont, the rusty and pede are the ultimate newb trucks and TONS of ppl are buying them, and thats what ur not seeing.. 170 bucks to have a very nice car out of the box that is tough is what ppl want.. now a e maxx is 330 bucks plus 2 batts, and depends on if u want to wait for 2 batts to charge on a single charger so moew money if they do a dual

do u see what i mean?

for us it was kinda dumb, but for the most of the ppl buying new cars and trucks that they cant get a 200$$ bl system in there and lipos it was awsome

Sure

Wonder if FLM would get on this:032: some things look like the rustler parts? I could be wrong.

the only thing that i see me using from that would be the rear tires for my buggy. (dont look that bad)

Bandit schmandit

The rustler/pede share a lot of similar parts apart from the tires/body and arms (i think). Nice pede emaxx.
