The Traxxas Maxx Ultimate isn’t just a 1/10 RC monster truck—it’s a full‑blown power trip on wheels. Traxxas took the already‑legendary Maxx platform and cranked every dial to maximum mayhem, packing it with premium, factory‑installed upgrades for unstoppable toughness and head‑turning style.
This beast rolls out with rock‑solid 6061‑T6 aluminium C‑hubs, steering blocks, and rear hub carriers, all built to take a beating and come back for more. Add in the ultra‑rugged steel CVD driveshafts, and you’ve got a driveline ready to sling dirt, shred terrain, and beg you to hit full throttle—again and again.

New to RCMA Model and Hobby Shop

A new series of paint specifically for soft vinyl is now available from Mr. Hobby! The Mr. Hobby SVC range, known as Water-Based Sofubi Color (Soft Vinyl Color), is specifically formulated for painting soft vinyl figures and models.
It can be diluted with water and applied with a brush or airbrush. It has conformability, so it won't crack even if the material is bent, and the surface won't become sticky over time due to plasticizers. It's water-based, has little odor, and is extremely easy to work with.

Key Features of the SVC Range:
• Flexibility: Maintains adhesion on flexible vinyl without cracking.
• Low Odor: Water-based formula is safer and has low odor.
• Anti-Plastisizer: Resistant to the plasticizers found in soft vinyl, preventing the paint from becoming tacky or "floppy".
• Coverage: Provides smooth and excellent coverage.
• Format: 18ml bottles.

Available Colors (SVC Series):
• SVC-01: White
• SVC-02: Black
• SVC-03: Red
• SVC-04: Yellow
• SVC-05: Blue
• SVC-06: Silver
• SVC-07: Gold
• SVC-08: Metallic Black
Usage Tips:
The SVC range is not intended to be mixed with other Mr. Hobby lines, such as Mr. Color, Aqueous Hobby Colors, or Acrysion.

Available in store NOW!!!
