Are you looking for Electric or Nitro? For Electric there are the Kyosho Halo 8 series, the IRC Photom, and some cheap nockoff of the Kyosho called the NanoDragon. For Nitros there are the Kyosho Mini Inferono 09 series, IRC Vulcan, Sportwerks Chaos, Trinity Next, VTX series, and a lot more.

Opps, that slipped my mind about that one. But yeah it's just the Kyosho Mini Infero series, The Nano Dragon, Duratrax Vendetta, and the IRC Photon.

The Vendetta is technically a 1/18th buggy, not a 1/16.

Having owned a photon I'd avoid one if I were you...there are several design weak points that are difficult to overcome (including the flexible motor-mount).
