Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

I'm certainly not going to give this a lot of thought until they actually make it into stores...which, with their track record, may well be never.

i havent seen these yet. weren't they supposed to come out earlier this year, and be sold at wal mart too, not just hobby town? i wouldn't mind running one of these as just a basher for the front yard when i'm not driving any of my other rc's.

they did release but not a big one, only a very very select few people were able to find them and pick one up, if you look hard enough u can find one. i saw one on eBay and toysrus but as soon as they were put on they were taken off for safety concerns.

you know what guys i just looked over the whole site seen the vids, i take back what i said, this will be good for people to join into the hobby, but i do not like the fact there making you buy only there stuff. but other then that i like them, i might have to pick one up, Hasbro has done good with this, there getting everything worked out now so there ready for anything where there released.

We might of been wrong about them, i liked how they setup the carb, and the adjustment setting, and i think there's lots of room to still work with, with us experienced guys, who are gonna have fun they rip into it and drop a bigger badder motor, to make it do at least 35+ lol, well at least i know i am.

well I went out to mu local canadian tire and saw em HUGE BOX for the ricohet and a smaller one for the MT, Im not a nitro guy so I dont care for em but hasbro really has there stuff set out for them. I saw like 5 kids yell to their parents "THATS MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT DADDY!" or "I WANT THAT FOR CHRISTMAS! I'LL BE GOOD!" Hasbro is going to make alot of profit off these.

Did you guys not read the part where Hasbro states that parts and support will be available through Hobbytown? Nobody will have to buy a new car because of one broken part...

Wow thats not cool at all.......any kid will be able to get thier hands on one,not that its bad in all aspects because it will eventually end up with upgrading to a much better R/C.But its like that old saying..........IF HUFFY MADE AN AIRPLANE WOULD YOU FLY IN IT?

I suppose it wouldn't be a bad thing if Hobby Town is going to supply parts for it so to speak,and it would probably be an inexpensive entry level ride for someone to learn with instead of taking the chance of ruining a high dollar rig.But I just think of a Megatech or some other companies who don't make the quality R/C as some of the others.I guess I cant talk bad until I see the product,who knows it may turn out halfway decent,I would hope it to be with as many resources as Hasbro has.

Dang! Thats kid of a rip off!For that price you could have a REAL R/C not some vehicle that has no reputation or they may quit making the car completely and no supply of parts........i'm skeptical that alot of people mainly kids will be disappointed that these cars are not going to hold a candle to many lower end cars already in production.I say stick to what you know until they have a reputation.

Where are you getting this misinformation? If you've been following this thread, the "street price" was to be around $130 for the revolution and $180 for the ricochet, IIRC. Check post #43. Unless things have changed since then...
