      Everyone seems to want this and that and doesnt seem to be able to get it…BitHed would like to know if anybody would be interested in a GROUP buy of Kyosho parts…Be it ready sets or bodies or parts, from screws to wheels sets to tires to whatever…I am willing to get any and all items from Kyosho and supply them to the group at Japanese retail prices…I would send them to a trusted Ausmicro memmber in Australia who would ten redistribute them to all the seperate buyers…it might make sense for you with postage…I can pack items together for each buyer also if that might make it easier for Dgs, oh i mean the trusted member 😉 to send them all out later on…I would be happy to fix up a page at PanicToys.com to let you know about prices etc…

      Items could include the NEW MR-02 sets OR the new Kyosho Monster Mini Z…Let me know through the boards if it is worth doing this or not 🙂
      Stay Frosty…BitHed 🙂

      It seems very few people are actually interested.
      I get the feeling it is more that they like see and handle the item in the shop first before buying it or wait until a friend tells them that it is good.

      Put it quite simply, I’m prepared to share my cost of shipping stuff if you want to get stuff.
      The more people who share the shipment, the cheaper it gets. cash up front nothing worse than getting stung by a promise.

      My friends are notorious for it. I now only get stuff now for half my friends and let them fight over who gets it.

      Japanese retail for the Mini Monster is 17800 JPY…At todays rate that is ABOUT 163 USD…I guess the Monster box will weigh about the same as a regular ready set so shipping will be between 25-30 USD as a ‘guesstimate’…Thems the facts Ma’am…PanicToys prices are yet to be confirmed…The rate sux right about now anyway so it might get better or worse for you…Will keep you posted…

      The two bodies availabe are blue and white or blue and yellow…Apparently there are other bodies to follow…Full range of option parts coming too but times and prices arent available yet…

      im in for the mr-02 🙂

      btw, theres a pretty good site http://www.rcsquare.com , they got a whole load of miniz stuff, not too expensive compared to the retailers in australia

      their 5-7day express shipping is really express, i got my order in 5 days flat. Abit more costly though, but not a problem as i bought in a group so we split the costs.
