Oooh! I’ve been waiting quite a while for this… It’s time to unbox the HPI E10 Drift Monster Energy/Falken Tire Ford Mustang RTR! Avid readers of Evan’s 5:00 will know I’ve been looking for a reason to get into the RC drift scene, and this is it. For those of you lucky enough to make it out to BASH-A-PALOOZA 2011, [...]
We recently got a Duratrax DXR 500 1/5 scale Motorcycle that we will be putting to the test soon. Before the beatings testing starts, it’s time to get a few unboxing photos to remember what it used to looks like. #gallery-3 { margin: auto; } #gallery-3 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-3 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-3 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in [...]

Earlier today we saw the announcement of the Thunder Tiger MT4-G3. It’s cool to see people starting to do monster trucks again. (tired of all the SC news lately). So what better way to celebrate the announcement then with the worlds first unboxing photo’s of the truck! At first glance, it’s big, the metal chassis with the encased top is [...]
We just got the new HPI RTR Savage X 4.6, and of course we had to do an unboxing before we go beat up on it! Glad to see the 2.4Ghz radio as well as a ton of batteries for the radio, receiver and starter! We are looking forward to some nitro monster truck action! Enjoy the pics! #gallery-9 { margin: auto; } #gallery-9 [...]
There’s been quite a bit of buzz about the updated version of the E-Firestorm Flux from HPI recently. Ever since Jeff posted some great pics of this redesigned stadium truck from RCX we have been dying to get our hands on one. Well, the wait is over! We’ve got the E-Firestorm Flux here for the [...]
We just picked up the Traxxas Monster Mutt! We really wanted to review one of the new Monster Jam vehicles, and it’s hard to not want the one with the floppy ears! We just started testing it this weekend, and something that really surprised me, just about everyone who saw it said ‘Hey, where is the tail?’ I’m not sure [...]
So we got our hands on the Traxxas Ken Block 1/16th scale Gymkhana Fiesta edition, and of-course we had to do the un-boxing before the formal review right? Bill Wrench snapped up these pics before we were heading out for some serious drifting action! #gallery-19 { margin: auto; } #gallery-19 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-19 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-19 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* [...]
We have been waiting around the office a long time for these trucks! The Venom Gambler Brushless and Brushed version have finally shown up in the office, and we can’t wait to get them tested! Out of the box they have a pretty solid feel. They are identical except for the motor and speed control and the rubber mud flaps [...]
So we picked up the new Activision Call of Duty BLACK OPS Prestige Edition with the RC-XD Vehicle today, and thought we’d share the unboxing photo’s. At first glance I was pretty worried it was going to turn out like the Gears of War Centaur Tank fiasco, [...]
Short Course just got… shorter? The smallest Short Course Truck (SCT) to date is debuted with the Team Losi 1/24 scale SCT. The box is typical of the Losi Micro with the product clearly displayed through the clear window with the radio and accessories tucked away inside. It’s a full Ready To [...]
We got our hands on a Axial XR10 here at the Big Squid RC Headquarters, and I have to say the guys here are pretty stoked about it. This is going to be one of those kits you can’t rush, but when it’s done, it will all be worth it! As expected here are the official unboxing photos. I’m not sure [...]
