Pro-Line Nissan Titan for Maxx, Revo, and Savage

Nissan's nastiest 4X4 is the latest ride to be immortalized in fully-licensed Pro-Line lexan. As always, a full decal sheet and overspray film are included, and heavy-duty .060 lexan is used for maximum strength. The Titan pictured here is also wearing Pro-Line's PowerStroke shocks, Cheyenne 40-series wheels, and Moab rubber. Want the look? Ask for item no. 3184-00 next time you're in the shop.

Niiiiiice. Now I really really really need them to make one for the big trucks. My stretch E-Maxx, LST, and MGT are all begging for one of those now. Come on Pro-Line, make a big one!!! Please!!

I've got the Parma and I think its true-er to the real Titan than this one. I'm sure the Pro-Line is nice - and looks reinforced where the cab and bed meet but the Parma is more realistic.

I agree with macll and think the opposite of microdude. It may just be the paint job but that doesnt look much like a Titan to me. I dont see the lines microdude sees. Ive been eyeing one (full size) for a while and test drove one last monday.

I've got a Black Nissan Armada (the SUV version of the Titan) and from the front, my RC E-Maxx w/Black Parma Titan Body and real truck are a dead on match. The Parma body is dead on...again, not saying the Pro-Line isn't more typical of an RC body but for scale looks I'm quite happy with my Parma.

BTW - w/305 HP the Armada is a very sweet ride
BTWII - w/9L Brushless so is the E-Maxx

i haven't compared them in detail, but the big diff i know is the .05 to .06 lexan. thats about it. going to take a look side by side. i know pro line often smooths out areas of a model body to what they think looks better, so they could be very different. i havent seen a good pic of the Parma yet though. just small odd coloured ones.

I sorta see what you guys are saying about realism, but I think the biggest thing killing this one is the front end. Not that it looks bad, but the grill is done up in chrome and whatnot like a real Titan, so it's hard for it to actually look like one. My money says that if this were painted like a real Titan it would look a lot more like it. The Parma one may still look a little more realistic, but I think this would give it a run for it's money. Besides, the Parma body is exceptionally weak (one of the guys I work with bought one, he liked the way it looked, but he said it was junk), whereas this, like all Pro-Line products, will stand up to some pretty gnarly abuse.
