Hi , the first (and last?) rerelease from AE is not a 6010 or a Worldcar, but a T3 RTR ... :lol:
Distribued and manufactured by Thundertiger (Europe only), it has the same specs as the T3: stealth tranny, front and rear aluminium parts...but it has plastic shocks, bushing, and...........metric screws :shock:

Enjoy!

All parts are now made in Taiwan...I'm not sure AE will sell those clone-parts in the us market... :?

I sure you're wrong about that.

TT is ruining AE.

I don't mind the metric hardware, it's just the fact that the over-all quality of AE stuff is going down the tubes that bothers me. And it is going down the tubes.
