“I love this RC, it's just so much fun. It was easy to build and setup with simple instruction to follow. The truck is very robust and can stand a real pounding. The over sized tires make far great fun on rough terrain and a great laugh on the flat. It also has the ability to wheely with a wheely bar on the back to stop it going over, but unlike other wheely RCs it doesn't do it an annoying amount, you just wheely when you want to. If you have a big gravel area you couldn't find a more fun RC to drive! The looks are also something worth mentioning, I've gone for the traditional yellow as in the picture and wow, looks incredible! I love this monster van!”

“I had wanted a Lunchbox since I was young, and I didn't hesitate when I found this great deal. The kit is quite involved but still perfectly alright for a first-timer like me. If you are interested in vehicles and engineering, you will have fun assembling and greasing the gears and axles and all that. It took a few goes to set up the speed and direction control correctly but once done, it goes really well and is great fun. A good enjoyable first R/C car, and a good deal from this site.”
