Tower says late September for the single, and late October for the twin version. Awesome video too! Im shocked that truck is'nt on Kyoshos' site yet. Looks great. Yet another great truck to add to the MT crowd.

RE: Giga Crusher Video
COOL LOOKING TRUCK!! I dig the exhaust set up and it looks pretty peppy. I do not know anything els about this truck though. Does it have reverse? Is it single speed in forward and/or reverse? The truck looks pretty cool from what I saw on the video. I will take my Genesis over the GIGA anyways even with the problems of the first introduction Genesis. Why you may ask,,,because I see the potential in my Genesis and I will stick to this opinion IF CEN improves the Genesis and gives us all a truck which is reliable and problem free.
I see it this way,,if the Genesis were problem free and reliable,,the Genesis has all wanted options. It is very big and borders on 1/7 scale. It comes with huge wheels (5.5 inches or so) and excellent tires which add to handling. It has 3 speeds forward and reverse granted it works reliably. It has a SINGLE engine and it is easier to manage one engine than two engines. Availability for 8 to 10 shocks adds better adjustability,dampening and tuning for your running environments. Availability for 4-wheel steering but 4-wheel steering is meant for slower and more technical realistic monster truck environments. The Genesis is a monster truck and not a truggy ( the GIGA seems to be a MT too) and I want monster truck action and not buggy/truggy looks and/or performance.
I like the Giga Crucher though and you know that if you buy a Kyosho you get quality and well engineered materials. You also get high initial model prices and also extremely high parts replacement prices if need be. GIGA looks nice in my opinion.>>PEACE,,"O"

Well it looks ok...nothing exciting about the vid so maybe I would like it better if I had a different look at it.

RE: Giga Crusher Video
I've read the article about it in the October RCCA. It does have a seperate reversing transmission, with a slipper on it. It actually has a really nice setup.
ORIGINAL: madmgt
I beleive it has a three speed out of the madforce w/ a 26 engine, I don't believe it has reverse it might though.
