New Traxxas release!

Guys, what do you think the new Traxxas release will be?

I read in RCU that it is gonna be a big block T-Maxx (NOT CONFIRMED).

There are clamor for a 4wd slash for a long time now. So is 1/8th buggy-truggy. 1/5th scale off road and a brushless E-Maxx (much like how they made the E-revo brushless).

What is your best guess?

I just hope it is a monster truck!

I just hope it goes back to the classic suspension setup instead of that horrible rocker system.

e-slayer is my bet it would be really easy for them to do it just slap a brushless system into it and new packaging and there good to go.

i dont think it would be too much more than the slash. probly 50 bucks more.. idk. it would be nice to see it though with a lot of tracks doing the slash open/short course open. i think it would sell good
