For RC enthusiasts the TV show Robot Wars made for great viewing, where anyone with a love of radio controlled gadgetry could build their own robot and do battle with each other in the robot arena. The stars of the show were the robots themselves, the bearded nerds who built them and the bearded nerds […]
Subaru fans think they’re the dogs knackers of course, but this RC Subaru WRX is pretty damn hot too. It will top 75mph straight out of the box. That’s not scale speed now, that’s real speed.
This nitro powered Subaru WRX remote control car is for the driver that wants to race at the track and/or […]
Looking around the I want one of those.com website I came across this Flying Vamp. Apparently, unlike many flying toys, it doesn’t require much room to fly indoors as it can stay airborne at low speeds. Usually flapping toys like this require a lot of momentum to remain in the air, this one is far […]
If you think playing with toy RC cars is a bit childish, and want something more realistic and exciting to play with; you’ll love what James May and Richard Hammond came up with on the classic lads’ show Top Gear.
Not a show to do things by halves, Hammond and May found a valley, a radio […]
When I was about 6 I remember having a radio controlled K9 for Christmas from my nan. Actually, I remember not having it even though I knew I was going to have it and wondering where it was. Then my mum phoned up my nan on Christmas Day to make sure she had brought it […]

When driving an RC car around a track just isn’t enough of a thrill, and flying an RC plane just doesn’t do it for you, when you crave the pure adrenalin rush of blowing the crap out of something; you’ll want to get yourself a radio controlled tank.
These little beasts can be hugely entertaining and […]

I love this ClodBuster, so much so I actually bought one twice.
Originally I bought one second hand over ten years ago and ragged the thing something stupid. It was great for tearing up the woodland across the street from my house, and even floating in the lake… though I don’t recommend this. Sadly some scumbags […]
When I went to one of the Collectormania events at Milton Keynes I was pleased (and slightly scared) to see hordes of Daleks roaming the shopping centre, posing for photographs, chasing children and generally threatening to exterminate as many people as possible.
