The bottom of the sticker already looks like it has been peeled, I just didn't want to be "that guy" to mention the possibility :lol:

When it comes to the sales price for one of these earlier-box Edinger kits, I wonder which would sell for more - the SNIB kit or an opened one with all (or many) of those nice-to-have early kit parts. With all of the speculation lately surrounding how many early kits were released, which parts they included, etc., I'd have to imagine the opened kit might attract higher bids, versus the "mystery box" SNIB kit. Just a thought...

I am not lucky enough to own a bunch of NIB kits,don't even have one.just a few used runners. It would kill me not to know. I love the building part of the hobby. I agree with scr8p open it and take inventory or open it an build it. Just my opinion not criticizing or anything . And very jealous. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

When I picked up my TRF201, I could only hold my excitement from the moment it was handed to me to the time I got back to my car. No more than 5 minutes. :oops:

well this solves a mystery why my first nib dual sport didnt have any decals or wheels and tires somebody steamed the seal off took out some parts and sealed it back up :twisted:.
the seller acussed me of trying to rip him off ranting on about factory seal bla bla bla i ended up swallowing that one .
this will make me think twice before buying any mor NEW IN BOX allthough
my second NIB dual sport had two pans in it a black B stamp and a black A stamp for a 6 gear so kinda made up for it :D

good luck what ever you decide you never know it could have two sets of goodyears in it :shock: 8)

I got a SNIB 6036 Graphite car that when opened, was newspapers and lexan scraps. No joke-

I only buy SNIB off people I know, or opened boxes.

It would be cool to see if it were a "Friday end of shift" kit, My original RC10 had a TWO sets of front tires in it, and an excess of screws, not just a few spares, like a HANDFULL. I thought it was cool.
