As far as the best version, turbo bunny by Kovari and run wolf run by Chance Wolf are the best both have smooth operation Kovari's is all wood with some metal. If you are in need of one these are the only 2 to get. I would not waste my money on the versions from India or China

Anything over age 7----ditch the RRR, and use a good Die-box instead.

What about the one where the rabbit pops out of the top and sides of a hat? Tommy James made one in plastic and there is a wooden version. What is it called?

I'm selling a Run Wolf Run in the For Sale forum here at the Café. Like New.

I have an original Kovari Turbo Bunny which is way over 30 years old. It's been pulled apart several times for running repairs, and even now some bits are just hanging in there. I have an Axtell rabbit as well, which the kids love, but for getting kids really paying attention and going crazy you can't go wrong with Turbo Bunny. Mine has little roofs built onto the tops of where the doors are to make them look like houses. I use mine in combination with another gimmick which gives the routine a very crazy ending.

I must also say that I haven't seen any of the new ones by Kovari, so have no comments on how they work. I have one of the new Pom Pom poles, and an original and the original works so much better in many little ways.
