They don't even look like vipers! That may be the worst model of a car in 1/64 scale yet.

Hey Namuna!
60-7058 HULK CHEVY 27MHZ $24.99

60-7060 SPIDERMAN HUMMER 27MHZ $24.99

Looks like two more Monster Trucks.

I got excited for a second…But then remembered it’s coming from RadioShack.

The thing will probably look Gay’er than Sez tossing Hog’s salad.

Now this is a Dodge Viper

RS's version loos like they modded a new Mustang and Honda S2000 together. Rs is back to the Cartoons just look we get Hulk and Spiderman as well.

Never saw it run in the DVD clip.

Hey it looks a little better than thunder chargers, but it still looks like crap, I rather get 4/5 Thunder Chargers for around the same price as that ugly pos. Holla

**Edit**

Upon closer inspection of the pic. I can see a couple of notables.

1) The first truck appears to have the front wheel at an angle, indicating rack and pinion steering maybe?

2) Look at those idler gears! They are huge. I'd be willing to bet these things got some power.

3) Looks like they've got some halfway decent ground clearance

4) They are a new chassis, the pinion is on the "passenger" side.

5) This confirms they aren't SE with the red and yellow antennas.

6) The wheels on the Hulk truck are different from the Bigfoot truck. The tires are also on backwards. Does this hint to interchangeable tires/wheels?

Looking at that side by side comparison it looks like the angles got screwed up basically making the car look like shit. I dunno, could be modded.... Course I don't have any love for Vipers so it wouldn't be me, that's for sure.

The New Viper, when lookin at the pics, it has all the features but not the shape!
Is it just me or does the Viper resemble a Panther?

A lot more detailed but.....................

The Viper IMO would look better as a Bit due to the size of Bit wheel wells.

The Monster Trucks look good from the Pics! Somebody's been lookin at bettyk

Damn, looks like Rat shack jumped the guys at monster-style...The article's been removed! I'm glad I saved the pic.

If that's not proof that RS monitors these boards, I don't know what is. It was here and at WGU.
