Early Christmas Shopping for my boys
#3
Compared to Nintendo DS and other toys it isn't as bad as you think. They can upgrade them if they want to and build them just like my real rockcrawlers. Give them something to do when they are at the shop since I have a gravel parking lot and a lot of field to crawl them in.

Wow, I wish my actual truck looked like one of those. Sweet toys man, and way better for you kids brains than Video games any day of the week, IMO.

good stuff.
i remember when these things were just starting to come out, and people were using Jato's as rock-crawlers because of the 4" travel the Independent suspension got, lol.

I've had my fair share of r/c's. Started with a Traxxas Stampede when they first came out, then went to a CEN 4WD Honda Accord, then Team Losi Mini-T's (spent about $400 in upgrading parts to aluminum and lights and other stuff, then sold the things for about $175 ), then had the newer Stampede with the electronic esc and quicker engine, then spent a ton of money on a "custom rockcrawler" that ended up needing a bunch of assembly that made no sense at all so we took it to the hobby store and they couldn't figure it out so we sold it, and now I just bought the Traxxas Slash! Yay 30+ mph and fully waterproof!
Those Axials have TONS of upgrade options and aftermarket support. Kinda like Toyota's

Dang Wabbit... going to get them started on an expensive habit early. Just wait until they become teens then they will want the full sized version. Maybe an early encouragement to run the family business?
