Fresh from their Facebook page;

Differences I can see so far;

Roll cage

Door bars (where doors would be)

Wing top/ Fender lamps

Windscreen spots

Front bumper spots

Looks like light buckets for main lights are standard too

That works out at 11.2 inch - sadly too short for the chassis i will be using :(

Looks much better, but they need to trim the front grill /fenders better. That small mod makes a huge difference.

Yup, trimming that little 'triangle' away between the fender and the grille makes all the difference

They've done it on some of their promo shells;

Cosmetic wise much better than before, but is still only a 6 or 7 in my book. it seems minor improvements each year, which is good instead of bring a totally different model out.

rcmart has better photos and the price includes a 35T motor by yr.

Really temping - if i can lose 1 inch from the wheelbase of the chassis i will be using - not that hard if a do my own 4 links .

Go for it. :rolleyes:
Some how the chassis seems not right, but can't say what is not right about it. The front leaf springs mounting point stick ouf too much?

if i do use this body it will be on a Axial SCX 10 chassis with front and rear 4links and T rex 60 axles so it might look quite scale .. Yes its not true to a leaf sprung Jeep but loads of off roaders convert Jeeps to more modern running gear on their 1:1
