      If you want my opinion i say go for it. Lxx models are well worth it. I have a Modellista Supra and it goes hard. Its stock 3.0 engine is a nice feature with this range of cars and the body detail is great for all of them (except for the sponsor stickers, they are useless and taking them off makes the car look better). For a bit over half the price of a Tomy Char-g and overall better stock performance than the Tomys, my advise is yeh go for it.

      but only if you want to settle for second best and forever be known as only a ‘clone’ owner.
      Goodluck.

      I got a Perfection 3.8 in my Lxx Automodellista, works okay, could be better. Not as good as in my BCG Booster Z.

      jord001, in my opinion, the BCG Booster & MS Pro are much better Micro’s than the Lxx. The Lxx was the worst of the 3. And that 3.0 motor, what a joke! I have 2.2’s that blow that thing outta the water. It’s the worst motor I’ve ever owned so it got trashed in place of a Perfection 3.8. After changing out all the gears, it got a lot better & quieter but is still much, much noisier & slower than the BCG & MS. I’d go with the BCG, it is just so smooth!

      No you are not a clone owner! MicroSizers are just the US released version of the BCG. All others are clones, except (“they say”) the ZipZap??? I haven’t seen a toy store or hobby shop yet that sell BCG in the US only MicroSizers and of course clones.

      But Surf, don’t say “clone” like it’s a bad thing! There are some slammin clones out there, Shens, Panthers & Precious that performance wise, straight out the box, I think are better than the originals. Now when it comes to fit, finish & style, there’s no substitute!

      Hey Surf,

      I went to my local Target tonight and guess what?

      MicroSizer Sports for $10.00, so I bought 4 of them! Son’s B-Day is Thursday and I have spare bodies in my “BodyBag” that’s in need of a chassis. Check ’em out…..

      They are not in any major national chainstore, but they are available. The LXX are usually found in same places that you’d find private-import BCGs being sold. Since the boxes look so alike the real thing you might just be overlooking them.
