Got all my plastic Revo's yesterday (ordered 10!) They are fantastic! As previously stated they feel heavier than expected and are as precise as the metal ones so I hope Chris gets all the success he deserves with them. :D

Blue and green are as expected. I never got black as a limited addition so looking forward to it and had a quick go on red and it is really weird inside! Another big plus for Chris as each one provides a completely unique challenge. :P

Let's hope these can become 'toy of the year' next year! 8-)

At least I have time to play with Red and Black given my Silver is back with Chris due to my stupidity by jamming something in it!!! :oops:

Excellent News! Let us know how the Red progresses; If I remember correctly the others were replicas of their metal bretheren but the Red was a new animal.

I am happy to report my set of 4 revos arrived today.

I will do these in order - blue, green, black, and then red (assuming I still have any sanity left).

This will be a new experience since I don't own the metals. Already, I have become familiar with the reset click on the blue.

So BullDawg what is your impression of the plastic Exterme Revo's? I think that you are the first one on the forum who has them as a first revo.

my revo-red just arrived... very impressed with the feel of the plastic, it is lighter than the metal ones, but feels totally solid and stable.... the red one has some craziness to it - can't wait to investigate some more!

I've put about 60 minutes into the blue already. My hands already hurt. :( I am starting to dread everytime I go near the "trench" (or whatever it is called).

I briefly tried out the others. The red is indeed strange. I'm not really sure how that one will work yet.

They are very solid devices, well-built. I fear that I will wear out the clickers inside them, but I'm sure the materials that Chris is using will keep them strong.

Just solved the Black Revo Plastic - took about 4 hours play time and I rate it alongside the green for difficulty. Really enjoyed it and having completed the Blue and Green Revo Plastics I don't feel they are in any way easier than their metal parents - fabulous engineering!

On to the Red now and my first impressions is it is like the title of a Stallone movie from start to finish! Going to need steady nerves, patience and skill for this one! .................. or just have a few beers and worry about it after Christmas!

Looking forward to registering my little certificates when the website is ready but suggest Chris starts on this in the New Year and has a relaxing Christmas with his family - he deserves it!

:( I had to leave early for Holiday, so won't be able to get my RevoPlastics until post-+-Mas. Phooey! Hope the mailman doesn't open them for me.

I was hoping that my set would arrive today too, but my postman came and went without droping off my revos :( Hopefully won't have to wait much longer though, fingers crossed for a pre-christmas delivery :)
