How we checked
The manufacturer page (traxxas.com) returned HTTP 405 to the verbatim fetcher (bot-blocked), so I sourced from two authorized Traxxas retailers that both list the identical model, TRA77096-4 "Traxxas X-Maxx 8S 1/6 4WD Brushless RTR Monster Truck." The AMain Hobbies page (source) supplied the verbatim spec table — Scale 1/6, Length 30.67 inches (779 mm), Completion Level Ready-To-Run, VXL-8s Waterproof Electronic Speed Control, and batteries under "Needed To Complete" (so not included) — plus price $1,199.95. PCHobbies (corroboration) confirmed the same 1/6-scale 4WD brushless RTR identity, the "Up to 50+ MPH on 8S LiPo" rating, and price $1,199.99 (US MSRP); both pages confirm this is the current X-Maxx 8S belted-tire flagship, not the Ultimate variant or a smaller-scale sibling. Motor kV and curb weight in grams were not stated verbatim on either fetched page, so both are left blank.
