The new Senton is shown on Tower Hobbies website now. I kind of like the new body.

Love the looks. Very military.

Arrma still doesn't have it on their webpage and Tower is selling them.

Meh.. Not bad.. I still think the V1 Senton had the nicest body.

Mojave still looks better!...

Mojave was a great body.

Does this get the same V3 updates the other Arrma's got?

Body looks like the same one used for the new MEGA Senton. Also looks like they dropped the vents that the old body had. I do like the paint, though.

The new Senton is up on Arrma's website.

From the storyboard, the body is still has lots of pre-cut vents in the back. Nice!

The more I look at this new body, the more I like it. From the profile, the hood and bed are almost flat - only a small molded 'rollcage" in the back. Plus the windshield seems to stand proud, not chopped like most racing bodies. It looks sharp, distinctive, original without looking funky. Plus the dark-grey-almost-but-not-really-black looks cool and is a nice break from all the deep-gloss black paint jobs.

I think the body looks great!
I really wish they would have updated the wheels, maybe something a little beefier for bashing and jumping. I didn't have any luck with the stock tires aside from parking lot drifting.
