Intriguing ad in RC Car Action - RC10 re-release?

[j-sou]

I was told the re-re wasn't quite ready for the show, but would be exactly like the original. I assume it will have the mods listed earlier in the thread (lipo friendly, and tougher tranny) though.
Man I'm stoked on this. I can't wait to have a couple of these show up on my doorstep!

a few more pics.

security guard making sure I didn't get droll on the vintage display.










I'm thinking if I go back tomorrow I might have to snag one of these for a runner

I need that trophy girl banner so I can get more detail on the right rear of that car for my replica build

as soon as someone finds out where to preorder please let me/us know maybe start a new thread on preoders that would be nice thanks!

I'll send you detailed pics after I steal it tomorrow.
Man that would look good taking up a wall in my garage!

She's going to make you take it down after you accidentally call her "Trophy Girl" in bed...

Slightly OT, but no Tamiya booth at RCX??? Isn't that like Ford not having a booth at the NAIAS?

Don't have to worry about me taking your pre-orders since I think I'll wait for the stealth re-re...or hopefully a graphite re-re.

Late graphite chassis would be <3

I will be buying to be parts for conversions if they're sold separately. Really interested in what they're going to change in the 6-gear.

Is it realistic to wait for the exact era/trans/chassis configuration you would prefer or just be appreciative that they are going to bring this original rc10 configuration to market?

Nor HPI....

Only if this is a sales success will they consider later editions for re-re, imo.

Yes it is realistic to not buy a 6-gear car when I still have my original car, and wait for the re-re stealth car, that AE said will be coming later, since I don't have an original one of those.

It's also realistic that I can not want a 6-gear re-re and still be appreciative that AE is doing any kind of re-re.

Just met the man himself Roger Curtis. He signed 2 cards for me....says he has no idea why the buggy is so popular and he wouldn't have rereleased it! Spoke with him and his wife for a long time. Lovely couple.
