Buggy for the kid

Grass Hopper or Lunch Box? Which one is more durable (I know Grass Hopper is quite good, no idea on Lunch Box)? My son is 4+.

I suggest the Lunchbox or even WW2 as they are durable and fun to play with....  A Grasshopper is good but after a while your son might not be able to show off some "tricks" like WW2 or LB can (wheelies) and get bored with it.....
Give your son a WW2 or LB for a few good years and get him a DF03 (or even DF04 by that time) and start racing!  

我諗WW2應該會係最好~~冇LB咁易撞爛~

My son is 3+.  I let him drive my lunchbox at a skateboard park.  He was ok as the park quite big, but he also broke the body poles.  

I would go for Grass Hopper because the motor is slower, and not as easy to cup4.

It seems that LB is not so durable when comparing with Grass Hopper. LB's body poles seem to be the weakest part. However, LB is more funny as it can (wheelies).

Up to this moment, I intend to let him play a slow speed Grass Hopper (w/ 380 motor) as training car. May get an LB later.

That's better.  For me, since I have the LB already, I actually want to install a 380motor with mounting in it.

why don't you think about the RC boys?  Cheap and slow...

hey brother mike........not much more RC boy in the market la......the kidult just like u and me bought them all la!!!!!!
kidding!!! i agree RC Boy is a good start..........but it's only on road........i think brother ryan seem like to buy a off road car........

如果樓主想俾offraod小朋友玩，會唔會考慮孖星18仔/mini inferno呢？

I got an RC boy for my son, but it is a on-road car only. I think an off-road is better for him. Bro monkichi0210's guess is 100% correct.

I get a mini-inferno but I think it is not suitable for kid coz it's front arms, especailly the C-hub, is not so durable.

And you know, for kids, they like to play "big cars" like ours.  So, they would rather have a slower 1/10 than a faster 1/18.  To them, 1/18 would make no different from their ToysRUs cars.     And I also agree that Off-road is better as it can run on-road, off-road, grass, sand....etc.

Yes, Kids are like that. They want to pretended to be an adult and hence they want to play a toy that is similar (at least in size) to the adults.

BTW, grasshopper is better.... I fixed the body poles, but my son just broke the LB front rim
