The twin hammers now in kit form.

They listened to some of the complaints. Why has no one mentioned or seen this before? it is cheaper tan the wraith and most of the scx 10s. lot of upgrades new tires, steel trans gears, and front locker to name a few. I hope this link works.

Well said. The interesting part of the TH is that it includes both a locker AND sway bars. WTF??? Is it supposed to be more crawlable, or set up for higher speed?

To the credit of the TH, at least it has a functional 2 speed transmission. The Yeti has the CAPACITY for a 2 speed. I would have preferred some revision to make the rig easier to work on. Mine has been apart for about 6 weeks. It's a complete pain to disassemble and reassemble everything anytime you need to do ANYTHING.

But, its a fun rig!

Right and they are just now after the last couple years releasing a kit. WTF, that is not proactive.

Then there is this /\ ... hanging your customers out to dry. Lack of support, confusion as to what is going on with the product, IMHO not good business practice. I like the TH very much, it looks awesome, don't get me wrong, and was very close to buying one, then I waited until the real world reactions came in.

I'm not pumpin the other car that everyone is comparing with. It's not a fair comparison. I'm only focusing on the TH here and it's shortcomings. Veterosi has had "the last couple of years" to get their shit together rather then sitting on their thumbs.

Sidenote...has anyone found where to buy the clear panels by themselves? So glad those fake light buckets are gone

[Dezertdirt]
