@@anonymous_message that's not how the market works like the when the rc10 brought back out re-release of the original car those are now going for the same price as the originals so it's a lie to say that the guys who have the originals are not losing any money.
My issue with all the R/C manufactures besides Traxxas is once they discontinue the model it eventually becomes impossible to get parts for it because once they run out of stock they don't make those parts anymore. But yet you can still get new parts for a 15 year old Traxxas model. Especially with Losi and other brands under the Horizon Hobby umbrella.
This is true. Try getting parts for a five year old 8ight. I bet you can still get parts for a 25 year old bandit. Not that I would support Traxxas anymore…
I didn’t know this about Traxass. Bodies too….bodies are extremely hard to find and obscenely expensive for vintage RC’s. If you have a vintage RC your at the mercy of eBay sellers price gouging you.
I still have my original one 1/10. From 1989-1990 . It's not running anymore but after watching this video I might have to get it running again. Great video.
I remember getting my JRxT10 back in the day! Building it only took a day! And my local indoor track just started the truck class! It gave me another class to run in instead of just the unlimited class I was running my graphite chassis RC10 team car Great memories!!
Greg as a losi mini b pro rig owner would I be able to drop in the dynamite 2 in 1 brushless combo in this rig not sure cause the motor on this mount in the back ?
I wondered when they’d finally do this since the buggy and truck were related back in the day. It will look great with my mint condition vintage LX-T build and my mini JRX2. I wish I still had my JRX-PRO SE but these hit all of the nostalgia feels! 🤙🏼🏁 Thanks Greg. 💯
I raced pretty much every TL car when I was young, so bummed I don't have them anymore except for my original JRX2. These mini's although smaller in scale still help bring back those great memories.
What a shame its a collectible! I want to buy one to drive it and enjoy it. People buying to keep new in box means less will be available for budget-oriented punters and possibly a more limited after-market for option parts. Boo! That's the only negative I have on this one; it looks like a beaut little rig and I'm going to try to get my driving hands on one of these things prompt like! Thanks for the video :)
I agree. But unless you have numbers 1-10 or #5000 all the numbers in the middle are not worth anything. I'm going to enjoy mine and not worry about the connectability.
Actually pity they made it a limited release - it would be a great first RC for a small child. Our 5 year old little girls likes to drive my Mini JRX2 and the speed is just right for her.The suspension looks a little jumpy and may need a bit of tuning.
my very first hobby grade rc was the jrx2. instead of going on our grade 8 field trip i convinced my mom to put the money towards a used jrx2 it had a after market fiberglass frame with a pink coating that was a lot thicker and harder than paint almost like powder coating. if any of you know what that material is please let me know.
The og junior xt is 1st losi i saw in person...so i had to one up my buddy and buy the xxt. I still have it. Sold body sadly, bc i had a cooler hot bodiez shell on it. This junior could outrun mine if geared right. I even the the Kinwald dirtinator motor too. Tbh this looks nicer than original.
I was one of those that converted my JRX2 back in the day to the Truck. It is basically my favorite rig of all time. I can't wait to see how fast these go to the scalpers. Losi, why limited? Makes no damn sense. FOMO sucks.
MAN.... bringing back memories! in the early 90s i was on the fence between the JRXT or a RC10T. wound up with the Associated but i always liked the Losi.
I don’t get why soooo many people are upset that it’s 1/16 scale? I get that the smaller RCs are not as “popular” but it’s not as much for the actual race market it’s for the collectors and nostalgia purposes. As well as not wanting to completely killing the the vintage market
I really wish associated would re release the rc10t but 10th scale. That and the jrx2 was my first hobby grade race vehicles. Sad that horizon made the losi the tiny 16th scale
Best time to be in RC! JRXTs, Ultima and RC10 conversions with crazy aftermarket transmissions and suspension kits, Schumacher Shotguns, Traxxas Eagles and Blue Eagles, *BLACKFOOTS* decked out TO THE MAX that could actually hold their own.... it was the wild wild west and you were rewarded for your ingenuity. More importantly, WE RACED ON DIRT, just ROOSTIN out of the turns, the way the Good Lord intended. Then, the RC10T came out.......and it was WAR in '91! ....*L*.....*X*.....*T* , BABY!!!!
I’m not a fan that body and Losi parts quality isn’t as good as Kyosho but I would have bought one. My Orion Baja mod motor would rock that thing. Like and sub’d
Wish it wasn't limited, would love to buy one but, can't at the moment, oh well scalpers will cut us fans out for a easy buck I guess. I guess if I really want one I can get the buggy and convert the needed pieces to have one
I have #1001 and it worked for 1 minute. On carpet, no impacts at all, left side outer axle snapped one of the ears off. Losi has become low quality junk. I had similar low quality experiences with my sbr 2.0's.
infuriates me that it's limited edition. iv been waiting for the truck sense the buggy dropped. and sense im looking for a toy i can play with for years to come and not a dust collector that wont be supported i won't be getting one 😠
It absolutely should have been 10th scale. Pretty negligent given the huge revival in vintage these days. Not wanting to upset collectors I hear you say, well im pretty sure they would love some freshly moulded arms/bulkheads/towers for their runners... Kyosho, Tamiya and Schumacher are well head of you TLR, you are sleeping on this.
Not a mini but another rare r/c is the Nitro Thunder King stadium truck with less than 1500 elc conversion kits made, these kits first came out in the early 90's as electric and later offered as a limited production Nitro Kit. All elc kits could be upgraded with the better nitro kit parts.
So 5,000 minus all the cars they have sent to all the TH-cam channels, and any other promotional zone just like the four cars in the promo video... If as it seems Losi wants people after the 5,000 are gone to buy a Mini JRX2 then buy all the parts to create a mini JRXT...... Losi should have made it 10,000 instead of 5,000...
Wow! Only 5000 of the Losi Mini JRXT found here bit.ly/41nrOSG will be made. These trucks will bring back some fun racing memories for some. Did you have an original JRXT? And will you grab one of these Mini’s?

I guess its nice you are driving yours, most of these will never see the light of day. Just end up on a shelf hoping to raise in value.
@@jasonrhodes9726 1/10 repop would have sold 10k or more at 400 a peice
@@jasonrhodes9726 ya people are just wanting stupid amounts of money thinking people will pay for it in the long run
They should have made a tenth scale version of this one too.
Yeah I said that about the JRX2 and they gave me some wack vintage market excuse. I mean the RC10 had a rerelease but whatever.
They don’t want vintage owners to lose their value on theirs
Stupid if they dont

I just got mine Monday afternoon when I got out of work looks great and my first Team LOSi RC ever.
Losi brining back the nostalgia on this one. Great video Greg👍
Cool! Great to see another vintage from them.
Nice! It has RCKicks attention! 😃
@@rcdriver I picked up the first JRX Mini when it came out in the UK. It’s now keeping my Team Losi vintage buggies company in the studio. 👍🏻
They both look so awesome. A lot of great memories. Team associated needs to do the same thing. I think that they would sell like hotcakes.
Totally agree, my first kit was a RC10T3. It magically vanished from my parents attic when I went looking for years after I moved out.
Just bought mine! To run, or to display it next to my OG JRXT?
Wheres that at? Where your running that beautiful losi!!!!! Is it local? Always watching from 413! Springfield ma!!!
Just bought mine today. What are some options to making it faster ?
Such a awesome remake!!! Mine is number 4515 and i love it!!!
Very cool. Now I wish they would make an SC based on the Mini B platform.
I still have my original one 1/10. From 1989-1990 . It's not running anymore but after watching this video I might have to get it running again. Great video.
Just ordered mine from Losi can’t wait to get it!!

Yes and no, it’s cool being small because it’s not 1/10 scale price, plus its not messing with the vintage market

Wow! These trucks seem to be selling out fast!
How would this compare speed wise to the mini b brushed?
I used to race a losi xxt back in the day I think it was like 91-92 had a blast in my Early twenties
Just pre-ordered mine. Very curious to see what number I get.
Just received mine. I got # 1778.
@@slkric1724 nice. I think mine is #1043. Can't remember off the top of my head
This is awesome! I started racing with my Jrxt. Then to XX buggy. Still have both of them. I'm going to have to hurry up and order one!
Does this model have a training mode like Traxxas offers? I'd like to get one for my little boy but slower would be ideal for him.

You get all the cool stuff!
Just curious, whats your estimated rc count?
I briefly had a Traxxas Hawk in the early 90s, similar era as this, the first dawn of what was to become Stadium Truck racers. :)
Oooo! Lucky! I always wanted the Hawk. I remember helping people dial them in but never had one for myself.
These are awesome my dad got 4 and left them in the box and displayed them in the living room 😂
I had one. Loved it. Sold it to my buddy
That thing took a beating. Pretty impressive!
Won the Mini Nationals with it a few weeks ago. It’s an amazing little truck.
I still have my original Team Losi JRXT & JRX2.
Trailing arm 5 link rear suspension? With that rear suspension a Baja bug body would really look sweet on there.
I was thinking the same thing for the new RZR Rey
The SX107 is already metal gear and they've just replaced it with the SX108. What is the SX117? I don't see it on the HH website
It's in the JRXT Manual under options: SPMSSX117 It's listed as Metal Gear/Ca. The case is metal, I goofed up by not mentioning both.
The og junior xt is 1st losi i saw in person...so i had to one up my buddy and buy the xxt. I still have it. Sold body sadly, bc i had a cooler hot bodiez shell on it. This junior could outrun mine if geared right. I even the the Kinwald dirtinator motor too. Tbh this looks nicer than original.

Does any know if esc can handle a small 3S pack to help with speed?
MAN.... bringing back memories!
in the early 90s i was on the fence between the JRXT or a RC10T. wound up with the Associated but i always liked the Losi.
I was a huge Team Losi fan back then. It was pretty awesome to drive this. But it made me sad I sold my original JRXT. 😣
I bought my friends RC10t that he used to whoop me with at the track back in the early 90's. Still have it
I just bought one. Soooo excited?

Awesome! Hold onto that thing.
Mines ordered haha. Great review greg
Awesome! Enjoy it brother!
Good stuff thanks Greg!
Thank you my friend!
I really wish associated would re release the rc10t but 10th scale. That and the jrx2 was my first hobby grade race vehicles. Sad that horizon made the losi the tiny 16th scale
Where did you get it from I can’t find it I have looked on their website and my local hobbytown
Saw it for pre order on horizon hobby website.
I have a link in the video description for pre-orders.
