The T-Maxx® is a radio controlled, 4 wheel drive, off-road vehicle at 1:10 scale made of plastic.

They are so popular, dozens of companies have taken it on themselves to manufacture and sell thier aluminum alloy parts for these little beasts.
Some people have gone so far as to replace almost every part with metal.

This one is about 95% finished.
