Default Twin Hammers DT Discontinued

I picked up a Twin Hammers DT the other day and just now noticed that it is discontinued on Horizon. Hope they keep the regular one going.

I happened to pick up the Twin Hammers Kit during Horizon's GoCrawl discount. Glad I did.

In Australia the RTR Twin Hammers is listed as discontinued on the importers website too.

Maybe this means they are about to reveal a new truck to replace the TH!

The twin has been around a long time, it sucks that I missed out on it during its hay day. Unfortunately all the "clones" have probably hurt them in kit/rtr sales, but in the same regards it seems part sales should be up. Fortunately though they are fairly tough trucks and the small business are keeping them relevant.

I like to think that the Rock rey is the Twin Hamers bigger brother. Come tax return season I intend to find out...

As long as the kit is available I'm not worried about parts supply.

My brother ended up with a desert truck version and the body didn't last long. The rear portion is just kinda floating in space and it was very thin where some of the attachment bolts sat.

I don't think the Twin hammers needs a major overhaul. But if they did it should come with larger CVD's and knuckles to go along with them.

Nothing wrong with the rock rey, I plan on getting one for my speed rig.

Would be sad to see the TH go though. Mine is kitted out for trail duty and it crawls better than most other rigs out there. Great platform.

Need to get a new DT body as mentioned above, mine is starting to crack
