[MJ:ST] Grave Digger Overcast vs All 4 Grave Digger Challenges

The "Overcast" version of Grave Digger from Spinmaster's Monster Jam toy line takes on all 4 "Grave Digger Challenges" of Monster Jam: Steel Titans (2019).

The game's final update added 3 sets of truck-based challenges: El Toro Loco, MAX-D, and Grave Digger.
All of these challenges are "Steel Titan" (the hardest) difficulty by default, and pit the player against the truck in question and all it's variants. In this case, Grave Digger: The Legend and Son-UVA Digger.

Despite the standard set by the "Need For Speed" series, as well as "Monster Jam: Path Of Destruction", beating these challenges does absolutely nothing towards unlocking the truck in question.



This final update would also add "Overcast" versions of Dragon, Megalodon and Grave Digger, based on Spinmaster's ongoing Monster Jam toy line. These would be awarded to the player for completing the new "Career +", although 40,000 in-game credits could be spent to bypass these harder events.

As with all trucks, the "Overcast" editions had no special performance advantages or disadvantages, aside from player-applied upgrades.

These vehicles have never been made into real-world trucks.


The idea of Spinmaster's "Overcast" trucks is fairly simple - they are variants of pre-existing 1:64 trucks, turned entirely greyscale, except for that truck's "signature color". Dragon's is orange, for it's eyes and flames, and Grave Digger's is green.

Megalodon's is blue. The entire truck is greyscale, except for the shark-shaped "MEGALODON" logo, and, oddly, the eyes. This is in spite of the fact that the eyes are black on the standard Megalodon, not blue.

Another strange detail comes on Grave Digger. Despite the Standard, Gold Walmart Pre-Order, and "Fire and Ice" offering all having the "United States Hot Rod Association" logo on the rear quarter panel, Grave Digger Overcast does not.


Since the update, which was released for free on ALL platforms, including the Nintendo Switch version, more "Overcast" diecasts have been produced.

These include significantly popular trucks like El Toro Loco and MAX-D.

Despite this, there have been no further additions to Monster Jam: Steel Titans, or it's sequel, MJST2.
