Will it all be DISCONTINUED?! - Scale News Update 339

[@DanBrando]

Josh, thank you for keeping this going bonds and ties me to the hobby without you doing Tuesday updates I would probably fade out of the hobby to be honest. During Covid, there was so many people in the hobby. It felt like a big community where I live now more less like I’m doing it by myself for a couple other people and it’s hard to sometimes keep the motivation. I appreciate you doing this please keep up the great work. I think most of us really appreciate you doing it more than we say.

[@SingleSpeedRC]

I love stuffing. But I also really like white Castle stuffing even though its sacrilege in most circles...

[@datsun4x]

Being indigenous We dont really do Thanksgiving, but we have started doing native american heritage day on friday, and make a ton of Frybread 😊. Piling on strawberries, powdered sugar and honey with some whipped cream is fantastic.

[@jaceSHO]

I need a frybread recipe ❤

[@Stinkles_]

I did read the text, and I’m pleased to say that the combination of text, audio and video remains one of the most exciting and practical combinations for delivering information and entertainment to loyal viewers such as myself.

Josh thank you for doing the scale rc news it's a fantastic way of finding out what is happening in the world.

[@sethstapleton6501]

Favorite turkey day dish is actually the sandwich the next day with all the leftovers ... turkey cranberries and all the other sides shoved in-between homemade bread slices ... it would be my death row last meal wish !

[@Bot_Brad]

Second Day thanksgiving turkey sandwich 🥪 is better than T-day Turkey 🦃 but cranberry sauce is for serial killers

[@kendotek9414]

Ever make a "Moist Maker"? That seriously make a dang good leftover sandwich!

[@Tipman2OOO]

😐

[@GT-po6by]

Happy thanks giving to all Americans, for this Canadian!

[@surfaceenergy]

5:10 The side view of LJs look weird to begin with (IMO)

[@publicprofilename4273]

I feel so inspired now, thank you os much. I am more encouraged than ever to have a time of reflection, and the art of retrospectivationism is not a skill that comes without a fierce determinationalistic work ethic. I look forward to continuing the move forward, ahead, and on into the future. lololz

This was AI generated, as a joke 😂

[@Br0rB]

I see what you did there. :p

[@tankinfrankrc1087]

Thanks for the notice on the Horizon sale. I scored some bodies for my SCX 6, Xmaxx, UDR and the Tacoma, plus the Baja tires. Been wanting those items for some time. Love the SNU!

[@mikesymmons31]

I've been waiting for a TJ/LJ for the 24 for years. Just ordered

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

Whatever my thoughts on the randomized release, congratulations on selling out! Great to see Holmes as a sponsor, too. Y'all make quality stuff. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@KatastaFreese]

For me, the best thing about Thanksgiving are the cold turkey sandwiches for a week afterwards.

[@bragilbe12]

I love the way they're doing the H10 optic kit, I might have to get myself one just for the fun of it

[@hotboyracing]

The deviled eggs are my weakness, but Sounds like the typical horizon hobby kill the car, kill the parts supply, try to force you to buy the new car

[@cbailey18b]

Mine too. My aunt brings a separate plate of eggs just for me.

[@hondofourfivetwo9347]

Coming from a half Latino household my favorite food isn’t just a Thanksgiving item it’s something that was prominent from Thanksgiving till Christmas in my house growing up and it’s Tamales 😋 unfortunately that recipe died with my mom so now I’ve gotta buy them like everyone else luckily I’ve found a roaming local Tamale Lady who sells them out of the trunk of her car so unlike those nasty store bought ones these are legit 😂👍

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

Karina from my office makes homemade tamales and I love them too. She’ll bring me a big bag of them. Sometimes she brings me the ones her mom makes too but I like hers better (even though she likes her moms more). It’s definitely a favorite of mine as well!

[@17madracki17]

A local shop to me used to open boxes and switch out esc lol they are definitely opening boxes to find the carbon fiber body's. I think I'll order direct for this one.

[@haroldscheg]

@@17madracki17 That shop should be reported to the respective distributors and manufactures as well as the state consumer affairs for this!!! Crooked ass shit right there

[@SeizedBCG]

@@haroldschegthe hobby owns the product once it’s on their shelf. Get mad all you want there’s nothing illegal about it. They can do whatever they want with it. My hobby shop opened 10 optic kits this week doing the same thing.

[@theoalbert897]

​@SeizedBCG if I got a kit from a shop that had been opened I'd be pretty choked... and also that's illegal to sell as new once its been opened.. if you really believe this is alright name your hobby shop in the comments and tag vanquish, see what they say...

[@amosaarsvold2767]

@@SeizedBCG They only "own" it as inventory under their reseller license. Once they modify the product in their inventory, they must inform the consumer of the changes. It is called bait and switch.

[@Rcmcgee1]

@@SeizedBCGlol, You’re confidently incorrect.

[@travissouerdike1335]

Bourbon pecan pie is my all time favorite. A good persimmon pudding is a close 2nd though. I can get turkey and mashed potatoes anytime, it's the sweets that I'm after!

[@shuster1921]

I forgot when the Losi 8 buggy came out, I still have the t-shirt I got when I bought the first version in 2007, never really felt comfortable with that buggy, but it was a good car. Still have the Losi 8 Truggy from back then in the garage, not to sure why,,, lol

[@kyiusworks64]

So the mystery livery of the Vanquish H10 optic is like Chase version of Hot Wheels. The 0/5 variant.

[@HarleyDesignsInc]

We’re hot wheels fans over here too 😁

[@brandonchayka4009]

Proline scaler shocks 90-95mm from 67 to 24 ish. I ordered 4 pairs

[@themountain59]

Happy Turkey days...the H10 is looking great in any color...LJ body should be more forward...tucked bodies are so last Friday..Holmes always solid...Micros are not my cup of tea...Horizon teaches us how high markups are usually..TLR on his last leg ?? Enjoy te gravy.

[@BahWeepGranahWeepNiniBong]

Losi & tlr dropping hints. Thanks again dude, see you next Tuesday.

[@eeatsvaz]

Every single Tuesday. I am Thankful for SNU. Have a great cranberry day. 👍✌🍗

[@SoteroMurguia]

Gimme ham and stuffing! 🎉

[@image_717]

Favorite dish....collard greens, hands down.

[@FeralRC]

Currently HH some sizes of the Proline Dumont paddle tires are on clearance and about 50% off. Ordered a set for our Kraton 8s and may order them for our Mojave which are also on clearance. Great deal right before the snow flies!

[@aegixxer1]

Losi really needed a TL/DR at the top of those statements. I enjoy the "pre-game" of Thanksgiving dinner more than the dinner itself lol.

[@DSMOffRoad]

I really like the mystery livery idea of the H10 kits. And a chance at carbon?! 🤤

[@MattC87]

Deviled eggs and stuffing! Might be worth mentioning that Amazon has the yeswelder 205p on sale for 199. Bought mine so I guess I'm committed to trying to build one of these damn chassis. Look forward to the challenge

[@burbanair]

Thanks for the heads up on those tires. Ordered a set in each size!

[@CraigSimons]

Being born and raised in New England, love cranberry anything! Turkey is my fav meat as well so Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, and Easter Dinner are always looked forward to!

[@BROtheBRAWLER]

traxxas and vanquish are my most respected crawler brands ;) keep on doing ;)

[@Braveblackjeep]

I love jeeps and I daily drive a LJ but the proportions on that thing aren't quite there. It's the doors that look weird. With that being said, I'm still getting both. 😂

[@chainsaw7887]

Now we need a portal optic!!

[@silentjde]

Proline just slapped a Jeep front end on the FJ body and called it a day, , the body is the same from the windshield back

[@Jmcqueary03]

Favorite food is definitely all the different casseroles that are made!

[@longtalltexanrc3358]

My favorite is the leftovers. A cold turkey and stuffing sandwich with a little bit of miracle whip 🤌🤌 Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[@Bot_Brad]

Best Answer

[@longtalltexanrc3358]

@ it’s hard to beat

[@michaelmalmstein9698]

That sales up to @ 50 pages! Soo many bodies on sale! And tools!

[@ninthislandrc]

My favorite Thanksgiving food item, technically, isn't food...it's hot spiced cider (kid-friendly version, as opposed to the kick-you-in-your-shorts adult version). As for this week's news, with some very carefully chosen words, Amain did confirm to me that the new EcoPower chargers (there's a single, as well as the dual), and the batteries, are Gens Ace. That also have me an explanation (albeit, not a very good one) why none of the new batteries have XT60 connectors (all but a few of the batteries have EC3 connectors), even though the chargers have XT60 ports. No word on whether they're including adapter cables, or whether people will have to spend additional money on adapter cables. Regarding Losi/TLR, they've lost a LOT of racers, partly because their vehicles (especially the TLR kits) are WAY past their prime, and partly because of their constant problem with having available parts. It's a shame, because many (myself, included) truly loved the TLR race vehicles, but had no choice but to switch brands in order to stay competitive.

[@jdsrcs8061]

The stuffing is my favorite. I ordered the Optic kit over the weekend. I am hoping for the orange or yellow however the fiber would be kill to!!! As far as the LJ goes it looks like they took the Deadbolt in both scales and added the Jeep grill

[@sammyboswelldirtybrc7580]

I got the 64 when they first came out got in on the first batch so sic looking when there doing there thang lol love the low rider 😎👍

[@markbrown8126]

Josh the 59 is also an impala

[@volksrodden9522]

Does Crown Royal count??

[@forrestcrabbe]

Thanks for being part of my weekly rythm 😁 🤘woooooooooooooooo🤘🍻🤘

[@philthy5058]

As the owner of an 06 LJ I really wish proline would've got that body right

[@williamledesma3770]

well... i just bought a new motor! thanks for the information josh !

[@letsgetitrc]

Happy Thanksgiving! Collard greens and my grandfather's baked beans are my favorite 😋

[@PSF_RC-PatSmageFilms]

Definitely some crazy deals in their clearance sale but I sure hope they aren’t going to discontinue the Ryft! It is awesome.

[@martystenfors]

Glad to see the "Segway" back.

[@marcusmanley2986]

There’s a market for a TJ/LJ body but they missed the mark big time!

[@Rokstardad82]

Just here to see if your going to bring up the new jconcepts body lol

[@catchmp82]

Crazy discounts wow. And a new Spektrum all in one 2800kv for the UTB18.

[@CrawlerRuth]

My answer to the question of the day is an Orange Jell-O Salad that has been a favorite of mine for as long as I can remember. To all SNU watchers, have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.

[@shuster1921]

The model that looks like it might be going away, is the Axial SCX 10 Pro.

[@TPDazzle]

My family runs cranberries through a hand cranked meat grinder with mandarin oranges. I dont know if they put anything else in it, but It is delicious. WAY better than the can.

[@joshtoth2541]

The only LJ part of that proline body is from the windshield forward. everything after is exactly the same on the 79 FJ including the tail lights and door handles. Super lazy.

[@eddytoy9496]

That Proline LJ looks more like that Redcat Marksman 🤣

[@haroldscheg]

Sweet Potatoe Pie!!! The Bomb

[@publicprofilename4273]

yup, I'm reading them. Thoughts on the 1st one. In paragraph 2, it sounds like their trying to start like an ePimp service or something, and I got the slogan "Come on, n' hook it with us guuuurl!" lmao

[@publicprofilename4273]

6 digit payouts for driving my RC sounds nice though.... they purposely leave out the "mandatory happy finish" clause til you're on site though. Always, ALWAYS, bring hand sanitizer...

[@bberry8280]

I blame snu for me ordering the cen sicario and all upgrades plus h-tec lift kit and wheels on the day it was released lol

[@FiveFourRacing]

The Proline Lj looks more like a Jk then an lj

[@Sysiphos]

One a bit weird thing about Horizon sales is that they don't overlap at all for the german site, ever

[@killa-cotton]

Sicaro - "it wasn't personal...for me it is..."

[@CarterOfAllTrades]

"tucked" is still so insane hahahahahaha

[@brentrobinson3274]

Pre-ordered my not ford bro dozer really wondering if the knightcustoms proline parts will interchange with this or not either way it should be a neat addition

[@crazyrusty7688]

It’s always the green bean casserole that’s my weakness

[@ryurc3033]

I hope someday I can come up with a lowrider hopping platform to put under my 20 year old Jesse James 39 Ford lowrider hard body. Maybe someday

[@thejoyofjeffing]

When I saw the Pro-Line LJ. I immediately thought of the Nylint Rc Jeep.

[@keithcerce8445]

Tj body.... but w a jk grill ? Whered they get the roll cage from ? Not from a tj

[@JThelen1031]

I also like LJs and you're right, the steering wheel looks really freakin weird and throws the rest off. F-150 looks like a dovetailed long bed. Kinda weird, but w/e; Fab Rats did something similar with an actual FJ45. Oh, Turkey Day food? My favorite is yes, except green bean casserole.

[@oyunome]

The low rider is fun for about 5 minutes.

[@mikemike2605]

Buy a bag of cranberries follow directions. It’s really easy and much better than a can.

[@ares333x2]

Hey!!! Let battery chargers identify however they want! 😅

[@modernart86]

Dang. AI has come a long way. Didn’t realize how good it can do messages like that 😂👍🏻. It’s scary if you think about it, ai is going to take over lol. My favorite thing to eat for thanks giving is the stuffing! And of course the turkey with gravy and mashed potatoes also soaked with gravy 😁👍🏻. Pumpkin pie or apple pie for desert with whipped cream or ice cream. We appreciate you and Matt and all you guys do! Keep the videos coming. And thanks for the SNU! I’m gonna order me a $28 Tacoma body now lol.

[@trevorcrain9620]

New bright bodies look better than that proline one 😂

[@emanuel616]

Thank you for the upload ❤

[@STP_RIDGELINE]

Hey my big bro you didn't mention hobbywing is having a pretty big sale also quite a bit of their products are like 20% - 50% off👍🏼🤙🏼💯🔥

[@Coltron_Actual]

How do you know someone has an LJ? They’ve already told you a dozen times. (Guilty) The LJ body makes me sad. It was going to be a day one order for me but nope. The doors are wrong, the cowl is wrong. They made a Mahindra Roxor. Somehow they got the Axial CJ-7 right though.

[@neilpeffers4348]

Amain does mention it’s compatible with all those other batteries in the video they did

[@GrimJerr]

I saw the Dual Stage foams for $7.99 and even though I don't really need them I couldn't pass up having a spare set at that price. I was wondering if they had a new insert coming, or someone discovered a warehouse full of foams they need to clear out. 😄 Going back to check the sales, maybe another redundant spare is in order.

[@lypheEddie]

My favorite food on turkey day is my mom's Chile guerito con carne haha

[@troypostie1252]

Cuppa check ✔ popcorn check ✔ Go!!

[@rcmaniac7006]

The Proline LJ looks weird because it’s not a hardtop, so we can’t see the bed length to door scale🤣

[@Belihah]

To be fair ecopower did respond to comments and say their stuff is compatable with gens ace and vice versa in comments on their video

[@guest6423]

To get a body right, they either have to copy the original exactly, or have a designer who understands the fundamentals of visual design, and is able to modify 1:1 designs to fit. The latter is hard to find, assuming the bosses see the value in getting it right vs getting it done. Bodies (not body's) have gotten so much better in recent years, that it makes the bad ones seem so much worse. Some of us lived through the BoLink and Parma days...

[@24Krawlers]

It’s like a mixture of a deadbolt and jeep tbh. It definitely looks very weird 😂

[@scalebuilder_sweden]

Thanks once again for some good laughs. I didn’t want to waste my time on this losi blabla text…

[@imthejaybird]

TLDR….. My daughter is a big fan of the can shaped cranberry sauce. Myself, I’m prefer the deviled eggs and pecan pie. 👍🏻

[@bbroken1]

I wonder what the kit ratio is for the seventh version like twenty to one or something like that? Meaning the optic kits hehe

[@tylerboss5453]

It's Deproch angle sir

[@gatorrcgames]

My favorite turkey day dish is sweet potato pie, and I like devil eggs.

[@IanBeaty]

Sounds like you need to try my cranberry cream pie family recipe. It's everyone's favorite including me, and I don't even like cranberries.

[@medelangel90]

Cranberry ice cold 7up

[@modelcarjedi]

I like how vanquish did their latest release. Good stuff

[@plukensteinpaint]

Collard greens

[@bbeckers24]

Something is amiss in the world when the jconcepts body looks better than the proline body.

[@redeyeriley4299]

In the upcoming year 2025, I will continue to watch your videos and like maybe even comment. It is my mission to support you in an effort to grow our fine hobby. Etc etc 🚗🚗
