    just my odd humour dude. But i do like the fact that some OLs and MR02s have this feature, it keeps things in place longer, retains the scale look.

    awesome… AWESOME. Words cannot describe how badly i’m needing that gear. (actually, words justdid describe… lol) Can I actually add a MV10 set to that package if you still have a spare one laying about? Will fix up on the usual day and time if you do and this is ok… worship.gif

    i have to agree. But oh it such a pretty thing, the detail that goes into Z shells these days is so much better than the original series of racer shells (headlight stickers on the GTR/Subaru? Huh??) But the best thing, as i mentioned earlier; all the twiddly bits are made of rubber, so a miss-judged crawl that sees you on your side will not result in missing wing mirrors. Big Dave, Pete, this has gotta be a good thing for you two…tongue.gif

    ok, I also need to swap out the internal batteries. Runtime of about 2 mins, extend that to 3 or so if not playing around with the lights. The way the indicator turns itself off after a turn is cool, but they could have left the hazzard lightsout and had tail lights instead. Other than that, detail on the shell is awesome (Calsonic), and it runs very quiet. Got to say i”m happy, and will be more so after the battery swapxp1700.gif

    Zbeam; FC RX7. That RS looks like a street version of the Silhouette Skyline… very nice. Both the batmobile and Mach 5 are high on my wishlist…

    That was silly… Dave”s getting 1 from the states and it will be titainium and 25 USD me thinks… maybe a item the shop should stock, Hint…

    actually it’s 25aud with postage Pete… 12.90usd plus 4 postage. Zbeam; Pete and I got our Hummers yesterday, H2s. Look extremely cool, and the bumper and wing morrors being rubber is a definate plus. Keep us updated with the pics! Oh, and you’re right about the ball joints, Pete gave up in disgust and handed it to me after about 10 minutes…

    i can say that the level of detail is if not level with Kyosho’s Autoscales, oit’s BETTER. The Mad Max and RS Skylines are awesome, i cn only asume the others are just as great. Aaron; Mach? As in Mach 5? Go Go Go? We gotta talk…big.gifxp1700.gif

    how did that happen dgs? with the gear breaking?

    congratulations pete!

    Aaron: ill put my order in tonight, cant wait to get this one on the car!

    gear boxes from toyeast (with the gears of course) might be an idea for the shop…

    i havent gotten around to opening it up yet but my front end is stuffed… i think i got some crap inside jamming up the works b”cos its stuck on full lock…

    shame to hear that Zbeam… hope it’s an easy(ish) fix for you… as for mine, the track we put down for them sees them being up to 2 1/2 feet off the ground, and he (my flatmate) simply misjudged a corner… splat. Landed on the rear right wheel first, which just so happens to be the same corner as the gears. Impact just sheared a couple of teeth right off
