1/10 SCX10 III Jeep JLU Wrangler with Portals 4WD Kit (AXI03007)

The 1/10 scale Axial SCX10 III Jeep JLU Wrangler 4WD kit marks the next step forward in scale off-road action. While continuing to incorporate key components that have made SCX10 vehicles successful, the SCX10™ III increases chassis realism with details that include a replica V8 engine to house the front-mounted 540 motor. It's mated to a realistic transmission housing and transfer case, like a 1:1 vehicle.
The kit's versatile transmission can be built in several ways. If you're using a 3-channel radio like the Spektrum DX3, you can set it up with a third-channel DIG function that lets you lock the rear axle from the transmitter for front-wheel drive and a tighter turning radius. Another 3-channel option is to set up the vehicle with a two-speed transmission to select between high and low speeds. To have access to the two-speed transmission and DIG function simultaneously, just add another servo and use a radio with at least four channels (such as the 5-channel Spektrum™ DX5).
The SCX10 III Jeep JLU Wrangler kit uses portal axles to improve performance by increasing the ground clearance and reducing torque twist. Its standard battery tray accepts full-size standard LiPo or NiMH packs. There's also space on the side rails for drivers who prefer "shorty" packs. Inner fenders and floor sides hide internal components that would usually be visible from the side of the chassis.
To top off the chassis, the kit comes with a clear Jeep Wrangler Unlimited four-door body that's ready for finishing however you like. Scale details include a roll cage, front hood vents, and cowl, windshield wipers, mirrors, door handles and more, plus a detailed interior. New taller and wider, officially licensed Nitto Trail Grappler tires on 3-piece licensed KMC Machete beadlock wheels to add more scale realism and more grip on dirt, rocks, and all other off-road trails.

Cool, I like the new features... but does the hobby really need another Wrangler body?

Really liking the looks but I have to wonder, why would I buy this kit (I love kits) for US$400 when for the same price I can buy the Traxxas TRX4 kit which includes all of the electronics (motor, waterproof ESC, 4-channel transmitter, RX, 4 servos), has a 2-speed transmission, portals, and front/rear locking/unlocking differentials?

Agreed, their pricing does not seem to be very competitive with its competition!
