New toy crawler, anybody seen it?
I was in Target the other day and saw their is a new toy crawler out. This one is made by New Brite (or is it Bright?) and looked to be about 1/10 scale as aposed the 1/6th and 1/18th Nylints. I think it was $60.
Looked pretty interestering for a toy. As I recal it had a Rubicon body (hard plastic of course
). I liked the tires tread pattern, wouldn't mind getting some with the same pattern for my Clod if their were some available (they're Nitto replicas so I know their is no such thing available for the clod).
Just wondering if anybody else has seen it, as far as I know it must've just came out because I didn't see it their last Friday.

I wouldn't get a new bright without custom upgrades. My first kinda rc was a green and black Hornet newbright. Gosh i loved it. I was only 9 tho. One day I decided it would be fun to run into some 1"x1" pieces of wood. First hit broke a shock mount. I wish i knew about superglue then. Tried to fix it with elmers lol. If i saw a cheap one i'd get it jus for the heck of memories. Point, they're fun until the durability becomes a factor. I heard it only gets like 30-40 degs of articulation too.

RE: New toy crawler, anybody seen it?
hey i found some of these things on sale in a Christmas catalog and i think i could pick a cheap one up after Christmas and i was just wondering about buying it as a project in the winter time (kinda clod and snowy here and not a lot to do) any one think it's a good idea or do think i'm nuts?
