HPI Racing seems to be ruling the Nuremberg show this year with all sorts of new releases. This one the HPI Savage Flux XS SS. I suddenly feel we need a ‘say it, don’t spray it’ category. Anyway, there are not a lot of details, but it sounds like this is going to be more of a kit version. [...]

The biggest new item from XRAY at the Toy Fair was their prototype 1/8 scale brushless truggy, the XT8E. They were characteristically tight-lipped about specs, features, release timeframe, and cost at this early point, but it should be a cool new entry in a rather small segment. Being XRAY, the XT8E is sure to be an all carbon fiber race-bred [...]
