Default Monster Truck RC
When I was younger I wanted a Monster Truck RC but couldn't afford one, I'm sure there was one called a Mudblaster or something looked like big foot. Do the still make them or whats the modern day equivalent?
How much are they these days.. any advise? whats the decent ones???

You can still find new BlackFoots and Mudblasters on Ebay now and then, they aren't up to the standard of newer RC trucks though are only good for collectors really.
