Cubby– For you readers out there, here’s just a sample of a typical “Would you please do an x/y/z shootout?” email. I’ll take a guess and say we receive 20 or so [...]

A lot of great vehicles have driven over our desks this year, and while I think it was close between several, one really stood out.

Any time we hear the words Tiger and Raptor together, we immediatly think of a Griffin, that mythological beast of eagle and lion lineage. We could totally see a Tigerraptor and Griffin going at it in the skies above ancient Greece. It would be the most epic creature battle since Godzilla took on Charles Barkley.

It is powered by Thunder Tiger’s ever reliable and powerful .28 pullstart engine with a large 150cc fuel tank, and has [...]

Hey guys, Thanks for the review on the Thunder Tiger MT4 G3. I picked one up about a month ago and love it. I did upgrade the servo to a spektrum s6030 and modded the chassis to hold the battery with velcro and eliminated the goofy over tray. It is a pretty tough truck and handles great. It is loads better [...]
Both Bill and I were pretty sold on the Aquacraft Minimono when we showed it at the end of July, but now Thunder Tiger has something a little bit bigger with their new Outlaw Jr. Brushless RTR Boat. Measuring only 29 inches long, it will fit perfectly in smaller bodies of water. Featuring a water-cooled motor, ESC and [...]
