Ordered a tamiya catalogue. £15 now but 288 pages now though.

So the boys can chose.

I watched a video on the new baja 5b flux its so fast even on dirt it just spins out.

Ridiculous.

Hey j,decided on what the kids wanted to get or it's just another excuse for you to get another toy :happy2:

Tamiya will keep making them, it's far to easy a cash cow for them to stop doing................

I would love one of those Toyota Hilux 4x4's with the 3 speed tranny. They are so awesome. Is it me, or do they have far more plastic on them than before? I remember the original ones having steel frame chassis and all steel diffs, seems like the new ones are plastic or am I mistaken?

I bought a HPI sprint about 7 years ago and the converted it to a drift car when that became popular now its a bit of a shelf queen but got some money thrown at it the early part of last year.

They are more plastic than originals, lots of metal parts replaced with parts from a previous re=re, one of the poorer examples of their re-re that one, the Bruiser looks better altho decals (again) are poo!!
