The annual is also a great time capsule if you save ’em, as this 1992 edition will attest. It’s chock full of Kyosho […]

Use your imagination, you’re sure to come up with some (wait for it) bright ideas. Get it? Because they’re lights.

Aquacraft Cajun Commander [REVIEW]

Aquacraft Cajun Commander [REVIEW]

Aquacraft’s Cajun Commander definitely fits the “something different” category, whether you’re a car guy or a boat guy. It’s an airboat, so there’s no prop or rudder in the water.

Dromida Cars Escape Warehouse, Invade Home

Dromida Cars Escape Warehouse, Invade Home

It appears Revell’s new Dromida cars are not merely ready-to-run, but ready to run away. As the video below shows, three of the cars managed to burst free of their packaging, escape the Hobbico warehouse, and invade a suburban home where they cleverly (and magically) disguised themselves as gifts. Only the cat knows the truth… […]
