If you didn't receive the email or see the post, the shop here has obtained a quantity to sell the very limited edition Red chassis set! I'm told we will be the only shop in the U.S. selling them from K.U.S.A. (not imported from JPN via alternate channels) which ties in to the sites 10 year anniversary ver well.
I've already placed my pre-order so the remaining number is getting smaller. given the very limited production run of these kits, i didn't want to miss the opportunity. I'm also waiting for confirmation on tthe total production run quantity which is reported to be at 1000. Considering Kyosho's min. unit order, this is indeed a limited run.
I'm actually seriously considering it, but the price tag is ridiculous. If I end up pulling the trigger, I'll just buy a regular chassis and pull the board/servo assy over and keep the limited thing a display piece.
yeah, i'ts clearly marketed as a collectors item vs. a race ready chassis set to use. if thats what your looking for, the JPN (narrow/rm) or US (wide/lm) special edition chassis sets are a good start for a hooked up KYO parts only chassis.
this one is going to go next to my JPN market mr-01 chassis displayed in my vintage toy cabinet. sort of my 'then and now' display showcasing the 10 years of mini-z.
mine arrived tonight! post man left it beside the garage door of all places but i found it.
the color is a nice deep red and indeed looks great
the red ball diff looks like the same color as the sp f1 chassis ball diff which i always liked.
the packaging appears to be the stock box with added labels. there is the new chase mode sticker and the chrome 'red limited' label. it's unfortunate it doesn't indicate the qnty of the production run but it at least has a label which identifies it.
i'm really happy with the purchase i don't anticipate racing it but placing it using it as a display piece with my jpn mr-01 chassis.
