Time flies! It doesn’t seem that long ago that I reviewed the original Raider buggy, but I guess it has been a few years now. Since then the Raider has proven itself as a favorite among bashers, due to its great handling, durability, and many unique features.

Over the many, many years I have been involved with hobby level radio control vehicles I have never had a truggy. Monster trucks, yes, 1/8 buggies, sure, but a truggy has never been in my fleet. Then, I saw the new ARRMA Talion and my eyes opened wide like a kid viewing his haul of presents on Christmas morning.
