I've only read good things about this truck, but I think that the killer for Tamiya is the release of the Revo... The LST and Genesis wil have their own niche as BIG trucks, but the TNX and Revo are going after the same market. And, most people, including myself, will just wait for the new Traxxas to come out. The Revo does have a lot of unique features whereas the TNX is a pretty basic flat pan chassis truck...
