Lightbulb R/C fakes

Hi All!

Thought I'd post this for a laugh.

I just bought this from the local supermarket for £15 with transmitter, charger and battery (even transmitter battery too), it's 1/10th scale and is a very poor copy of a Tamiya Manta Ray....check out some of the funny text on the box/shell if you can see it. For the equivalent of £15 it's worth it just for my little girls to play around with on the drive over here and on the garden if it has the oomph to move!

There was also a truck on the shelf which was a very bad HPI copy (as was the box), funny thing was it had a Muchmore sticker on the shell (see pic) and a sticker saying 'hot racing' in exactly the same style and colour as 'hpi racing'....made me chuckle!

Hope you're all well.
