Pre Ordered mine direct from AE.

Everything went smooth earlier this month with the 40th car.

I wonder if these are going to be numbered as well.

Thanks for the great info russ.

Are those T/E Maxx tires known as 3.2" tires as well?

I am pretty good at painting and doing bodies, but I am new to AE and the RC10 so I bought this one. Came with real netting attached to the roll cage. https://i.ibb.co/xDLtbTT/vvv.webp That looks great! Did it include the painted driver? Hi Doug, it did NOT come with the driver. I plan on painting ...

In 1993/94 I actually saw MRC demo the Thunder King into the "pow" cinder block wall at the iHobbyExpo.

I still can't believe that was over 30 years ago. I was only 15.

I love the MRC World Scale items. I always thought they were 1/7 scale as well. I have a really nice Thunder KIng runner and a NIB Thunder King and a NIB Desert Thunder. The previous owner of the Thunder King I have that is NIB came with metal heat treated RC4WD gears. Which was part #Z-G0048 Does a...

I remember watching some old school videos in which Jay would race on Tamiya tires in the mid - 80s. What size are on the original/classic/40th? The original AE manual mentions the #53 Super Champ tires which I believe are Frog tires which have been in production for ages. Would Frog rear tires work?

Looks cherry.

Did you purchase the silver pan separately?

What ESC/motor/servo are you going with?

A main back in stock for $379.99 on eBay.

I wonder how many of these they made.

They probably have another 75.

I am now revising my estimate to 7k

Since I am familiar with it, I too am going to use a HW 1060. I got a new one with a Deans connector for $14. I have a bunch of new Futaba S3003s so going to use one of those. I already got the required AE servo arms in black. 18T, 48P pinion secured as well. I looked at one of the Reedy Radon motor...

Someone posted 5264 on ebay today.

So maybe we are going to be 5,500 to 6,000 units.

I too heard people commenting on that washer thing.

What is the general consensus and has anyone reached out to AE?

How many washers, x2 or x4?

Looks great.

Life long Tamiya collector here. We all need a Pumpkin or Lunchbox in our life.

Yes, since Thunder Tiger owns AE, the cars are made by them in Taiwan.

I preorder mine directly on the AE website approx. 2-3 hrs after they posted the 4 min. ad on their YT channel.

Mine came late last week, #1645.
