I got my 8 year old a Stampede. A guy at a LHS (now closed) liked to build the Stampede kits when they were available and had a few for sale. It doesn't look like it was run at all and came with a Traxxas Rx/Tx and an LRP brushed controller for $90. So, I took it home and disassembled most of the larger assemblies (keeping the really intricate parts intact) so we can have a father-son assembly time. I also am giving him my old Superbrain 959 charger, two sets of GP3300 packs from RadioShack, and some extra tools I had.

Hopefully he'll like it.
