The T-Maxx tank doesn't look right to me.

Looks like names should be swapped. T-maxx tank is a savage tank, and vice versa.

I am suprised no one else got that off the first try.

you should give them a call and ask to talk to the manager and tell them about it. It'd be so funny!

I would have never noticed this just searching around on RCU. It is funny.

I didn't really care about the Savage tank, that's why I only mentioned the T-Maxx tank and posted the link. A "big" hint.

However, if you think that is funny--go check out an AE RC18B--it has "Monster Truck" on the box.

There is no spelling error, the "G" in savage isnt an "S" its just the font.

i could never quite figure out why they classify that as a "monster truck". its barely big enough to climb over rocks! although i dont think i should be bashing on it as i may want to buy a mini one of these days... once my nitro addiction is fulfilled.

The AE RC18B is a "buggy", not a monster truck (AE RC18MT) or even a truck (AE RC18T). AE changed the photo on the RC18B box, but not the wording.

this is even more confusing now.

but i guess the only thing that matters to me is if theyre strong and fast. (i would probably get the factory team kit and put a nice motor, esc, and battery in it.) but then again this is based on the fact that i have enough money and enough nitros to keep myself entertained.
