I managed to see one of these up close, and there's a few things that I'd like to note:

1. The rear tires are a slightly softer compound than the front, I can only guess that this is to make the Mini Maxx more stable when you're turning.

2. The plastic feels more brittle than your typical Traxxas. Most Traxxas RCs have a nylon plastic that feels like a tackle box without the texture, fairly bendy and durable. The Mini Maxx plastic feels noticably stiffer including the front bumper.

3. For being a "Mini" scale, the Mini Maxx feels heavier than my 2wd Stampede. This isn't necessarily bad though, this weight can help stay on the ground when you're going off-road.

​​​​4. As fast and expensive as the Mini Maxx is, Traxxas still had a warehouse of their mediocre 2056 servos to use up.
