Axial's ability to adapt to changing rc demands is nothing short of amazing. It might be a fun video to show just how many amazing and diverse products they had over the years. Cheers to a fantastic year or rc. Thank you, for all of your hard work, informing and inspiring so many new and old rc enthusiasts.
Matt you got yourself into a “That’s What She Said Situation” 48 times this year (not including livestreams). I enjoyed going back and watching every video again, it was a good refresher. 👌
Some really nice cars - I really like your 'low trail' - looks to me a lot better than the high one. I myself have eyes set on a car that is not all that new - the Cross RC XT4 (love the hard body and lockable diffs).
I intentionally left it off, because if I'm honest, it looks great, but doesn't really "do" anything. Towing your trucks around on the back has really limited appeal for me, and since it's a terrible off-roader, I had to keep it off the list. Certainly a customizer's dream though!
☃️ Excellent choices Matt. 2023 ‘‘twas a good year for our hobby. Thank you for all of your video content as you always entertain us with your antics. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours. 🎄🎁✨
Matt I give you alot of bs in the lives but I have to say I enjoy your videos alot. Can tell the effort that goes into them, informative, and to the point. Just the way it should be. Good on you my friend. Hope to cross paths with you in person some day to shake your hand sir.
Mojave 4s blows the Traxxas out of the water and makes the raptor feel like a toy grade rc vs a real hobby grade rc! The bug is so cool! I definitely need to check that out!
I have the Mojave 4s and would give it an honourable mention, but I haven't driven it yet! This review was based on releases that I've had some time with! Merry Christmas!
@@4TheRide I picked up the Mojave 4S. It’s not on the list because I haven’t driven yet (like I said above) and, if I’m honest, none of them are very towards the “scale accurate” end of the spectrum.
Really stoked about the comp releases this year, I'm hoping this means more people at comps again. I didn't track the "thats what she said", but I am now an alcoholic from drinking everytime you said something about the size of man you prefer....as a driver figure.
I've got the Ford F150 HighTrail TRX-4 ... and it's so much fun. My first crawler and I take it with me on the weekends when we explore new nature areas. -- Glad to see it on your list.
Thank you, Matt, for a great 2023. I was on the fence about the CJ7 as I already of the 4 SCX10iii's but if any I probably should have this new one. I really enjoyed your commentary during running footage as we get the visual along with the comments and description. I have started a log of all of your suggestions and useful items, such as weathering and tools, that you have mentioned. Thanks again, Matt.
My Axial cj7 just showed up today. I chose the other color combination. Watching your channels always seems to cost me more money. I purchased 6 off your list as well as many others not listed. Keep the great video content coming.
Really enjoyed your cool running footage, great to see! I like lists and this one is just one of them. Thank you kindly for a fun, Scale Builder's Guild 'Year In Review' 🙏👍😊
I would have bought a Fordyce RTR if they had a portal version. I converted a straight axle truck i already with a set of vanquish portals. I now have my 1st portal rig.
It really has been a great year. I'll have the Fordyce possibly before new years. If not just after. Redcat really raised the bar on their stuff. Vanquish is still number 1. Axial did a fantastic body... but still that blah 10.3 chassis. But. It's still an amazing release. Element is the company I have really been watching. I love how they just have fun.. i feel they are what axial was. Traxxas makes a durable product that works. They always look and perform great. One day.... I'll own a tamiya hahahaha.
Great list Matt!!! Just the Fordice can't be a better deal than the Phoenix because to upgrade the Fordice to the same quality diff gears and locker , you need to spend at least 110$ US, when the Fordice pot metal ones strip! And you don't get the versatility of the VFD twin, just to save 20$... Awesome work!
VRD Carbon is basically a roller at best wouldn't put in same category as rest of stuff you picked but that's me. Way to many variables because can build it 10K ways.
Great list!!! Yeah so many redos TRX, Ultron, your lists rule!!! Love that bug 18 gonna check that out!! Your video highlights are sick dude!!! Yes little need for speed! Can’t deny the ascents popularity, idk about its durability we’ll see…. I’m a Phoenix body fan for sure not a Fordyce body fan. The Cj has to top it
why is it that every time I watch your show it costs me money ?! Oh that's right I MUST FEED MY ADDITION and I don't want to stop! Matt you've outdone yourself once again and I want or have every one of those cars. always a pleasure and can't wait for your next one,,, by the way best cars of all time SCX6 and Traxxas trx6
Hello, your videos are always very good, I wanted to ask you about the axial jeep, what figure it has, what size it is and where you can buy it. Thank you very much!
I'm really leaning towards building the Bugger chassis, for the sole reason of having a spare Monster Beetle body. But I wonder, does a list exist of the parts from the UTB18 that are used, and is it more or less economical to buy just those parts or to just get a UTB18 and cannibalize it? As always, love your channel and I always look forward to new videos.
Traxxas has yet to give me problems. By axiel keeps burning up but it’s only 1/24 so idc really But I wish more more crawlers had 2 speeds like the trx 4 I’m still trying to figure out which crawler to buy I want drawing abilities but I still want some speed
Really, the Utron??? Fugliest release of year it may win but top ten best releases of 23, me thinks not LOL!! the rest I am on board with but that is just an opinion and we all know what those are worth.

This. Been seeing some OG Scorpion kits on eBay that I'm super tempted to jump on...

I wish Fordyce was available as a kit because I prefer that body.
Axial also did pretty good job with the K10 base camp
I’d say the redcat 53 Chevy coe hauler should’ve been on the list, but redcat has really been doing some amazing work.

Very nice list Matt! Scale stamp is a lot bigger than you think it is! Thanks for 2023!
Thanks for watching! 🎄
The BBX is the one I am interested in
Got a CJ7 on pre order can't wait!
Enjoy it! Thanks for watching!

I'm sure it does, but since I haven't driven it yet, I couldn't really put it on the list in good conscience.
The Best Sand Scorcher ever is amazing Matt 🍁🌇
😂
I would add a bit of Arrma like the EXB lineup and how they listened to customers for different releases like the Mojave 4s and what not.
I have the Mojave 4s and would give it an honourable mention, but I haven't driven it yet! This review was based on releases that I've had some time with! Merry Christmas!
@@scalebuildersguild what 2023 Arrma products had you spent time with? What kept them off the list?
@@4TheRide I picked up the Mojave 4S. It’s not on the list because I haven’t driven yet (like I said above) and, if I’m honest, none of them are very towards the “scale accurate” end of the spectrum.
What a great list!!! I have to say my personal favorite vid of yours this past year has been the BBX!!! You nailed perfect!!!!🤘🤘🤘
Thank you! 🎄
My favourite of yours is definitely the Land Rover Series 3 109"🙌🏻
Happy holidays to all you RC Legends.
Happy Holidays to you as well! 🎄
I agree with every one of those. Well done Matt!
I love that little buggy! Its awesome haha
It really is! 🎄
Good list! I have both the Fordyce and vrd. Great rigs!
Agreed! Thanks for watching and Happy Holidays!
Great list. I admit to falling out of love with Traxxas as I get more into RC, but their bodies are still top of the line.
Fair enough, thanks for watching!
Really stoked about the comp releases this year, I'm hoping this means more people at comps again.

I love a list ! 😍👍🏼👍🏼
Nice job Matt. I took a beer every time you said 'very excellent ' ans now i so pissswex i can bareeelly tuspe
Hahaha! I'm glad that I'm now a drinking game =!

Awesome list I think you nailed it especially with giving Redcat its dues & the Axial CJ7 wow that thing looks so good. 👍
Great video review

Have a good Christmas, and a great New year's. Hope 2024 brings you a lot of love and Joy. Keep rc'ing mate take care
Happy New Year to you too!
It really has been a great year.
I'll have the Fordyce possibly before new years.
If not just after.
Redcat really raised the bar on their stuff.
Vanquish is still number 1.

They always look and perform great.

Your video highlights are sick dude!!!
Yes little need for speed!
Can’t deny the ascents popularity, idk about its durability we’ll see….
I’m a Phoenix body fan for sure not a Fordyce body fan.
The Cj has to top it
Thanks for watching and glad you liked the video!
good list enjoyed /Merry Christmas Happy New Year
Merry Christmas to you!
Thanks
I love me a good list of lists.
Who doesn't?
24th scale stamp of approval? Say it ain't so!
One of my favorite rc guys
Who me?
why is it that every time I watch your show it costs me money ?! Oh that's right I MUST FEED MY ADDITION and I don't want to stop! Matt you've outdone yourself once again and I want or have every one of those cars. always a pleasure and can't wait for your next one,,, by the way best cars of all time SCX6 and Traxxas trx6
Sorr, not sorry! Thanks for watching and Happy New Year!
Cheers to yet another year of no lexan!!! 😎🥂
😂
Great video !! But what happened to the VEKTA5 with Taylor 50gt engine !! 😂😂💪👍💪 And the axial hancho scx6 , is also great ! But that was last year ?
I only mentioned vehicles I had first hand experience with. Honcho was last year. Thanks for watching!
Does anyone have any Shock recommendations for the TF2 Marlin?
Hello, your videos are always very good, I wanted to ask you about the axial jeep, what figure it has, what size it is and where you can buy it. Thank you very much!
That's a ClassicTVToys.com Stan Lee, he's 8" tall, which is a little short for this truck.
MERRY X-MAS MATT!!!!
Merry Xmas to you too!

Yes, full list and instructions on their website listed below!
Traxxas has yet to give me problems. By axiel keeps burning up but it’s only 1/24 so idc really
But I wish more more crawlers had 2 speeds like the trx 4
I’m still trying to figure out which crawler to buy
I want drawing abilities but I still want some speed
In your opinion what is the most realistic scale trail truck across all the manufacturers available today?
BRX02 probably. Leaf springs for life!
I cannot believe the SCX 10 pro did not make the list😮
Definitely an oversight! It came out in February, and I can't remember back that far. 🤣
that what pisses me off with Josh he builds stuff and you never get to see it run. you're channel is the best.
Thanks man! 🎄
I think Redcat has surprised a lot of people with their releases as of late.
Agreed!
Well I got 3 of your 10 list, can you guess which 3?
Hello! But what about Axial scx10 Pro???
Wow, right you are! That came out in February! OOOPS! I swore it came out in 2022, but totally wrong. Oh well, another honourable mention!
No love for the axial pro?
Ha, plenty! I just forgot that it came out this year! LOL ME.
Vxl rally
That came out in 2024.
Was this just your lexan list? Can’t wait for the hardbody list……
😂
Are you going to start up with Adobe Lightroom again or something like that? :)
Maybe? I haven't had a lot of requests for that, so we'll see!
@@scalebuildersguild I hope more people want that, me personally liked it 😁
It was Josh, he told me not to. 😅
The goat
Who, me? 😂
"Thats what she said" innuendo count for 2023 = 69, nice
😂
🤘🍻🤘
🤘🎄🤘
@scalebuildersguild mary sandy claws to y'all as well 🤘😁🤘
Josh told me not to.
More Traxxas please
MTV
An awful lot of lexan in this year of no lexan.
What are you talking about?! I didn't do a single thing that was Lexant this year...
If a Traxxas is on his list I'm done watching lol. Jj.
Sigh. 😂
Ford truck with Chevrolet plates lmao
Really, the Utron??? Fugliest release of year it may win but top ten best releases of 23, me thinks not LOL!! the rest I am on board with but that is just an opinion and we all know what those are worth.
Sometimes, it's what's inside that counts...
👃🤘
Bah humbug, when are you gonna do the damn quad copters? What the hell is going on here?
😂
1st 😂
