Max Airbrush MBX7R Magma bodyshell

Max Airbrush introduce the Magma bodyshell for the Mugen MBX7R line of buggies. Made from genuine Lexan material the body sports the company’s unique Magma design and as a novelty the body is usable with both the nitro and electric-powered variants of the MBX7R as the side pods are large enough to fit the battery underneath while still offering a slim overall appearance of a nitro body. The same applies to the engine area of the 7R Magma that allows for efficient cooling of the nitro engine without looking abandoned when left closed on the electric buggy. As usual the body comes clear, ready for own design ideas.

JConcepts Ford Atlas SCT bodyshell

JConcepts introduce the Ford Atlas SCT Absolute Scaler bodyshell. Specifically built for the Traxxas Slash and Slash 4×4 chassis it provides even more versatility to the wildly successful platforms. Fitting bumper to bumper, the body has all the possible detail of its full-scale counterpart starting behind that outsized grille. Split headlight design with corner reveal turn signal points the Atlas in the right direction while edgy hood detail bulks around the fenders to provide plenty of clearance for an assortment of SCT tyres. The extra cab look is defined by the recessed windows and the roof has a unique centre channel and extruded touches emulating the roof-carrying system shown on the prototype Atlas vehicle. The bed and fender area maintain a couple features that pique interest including sculpted out areas which look the part of the tie-downs on cargo walls and bed floor which are so commonplace in today’s pickup trucks. The Atlas includes a decal sheet for headlight, taillight with Ford and Atlas logos throughout. Decal trimmings include miscellaneous JConcepts logos, door handles, exhaust tips and running lights.

RSD R12SS 1/12th scale bodyshell

Reflex Racing introduce the R12SS 1/12th scale bodyshell. Developed and sculptured in-house and manufactured in the USA the design was modified several times during development to fine-tune the balance in order to achieve maximum drivability. At 32g to 35g the body is around 5g to 8g lighter than comparable lightweight bodies and it is meant to offer more high speed stability than an AMR-12 while having a little more low speed steering. The body is usable in both Stock and Modified classes, it is made from .020 Lexan material and available now.

JConcepts B44.3 Silencer bodyshell

The latest vehicle to receive JConcepts’ Silencer bodyshell treatment is the Team Associated B44.3 4WD buggy. The Silencer sports a special design aimed at today’s high-speed tracks with a profiled, Finnisher stance cockpit and forward raised side-pods. A smooth, high-speed transition around the cab keeps the Silencer heading in the right direction while a slight recess just behind the cab with channeling out the rear provides rear end stability. The side pods have a clipped rear end, narrowing the rear by angling in just in front of the rear tyres. The rear side-pods angle sharply toward the shock tower and wing, enhancing the force placed on the rear pods during high-speed acceleration. Included with the body come two 6.5″ Hi-Clearance rear wings, window masks a decal sheet.
