Yep, Kyosho is clearly setting a precedence here. It's also the first time a re-re was releases with so many hop ups

The hard rails say 7075 aluminium which I believe is the same as the standard kit, unless they also heat treat it?
Maybe Hard Anodizing....could be why they're shaded.

I'm guessing the option wings come in colors because they're molded wings. I don't think they'd be ano'd aluminum wings since the wing mounts are molded.

I can't wait.

I wonder what that Lemans motor is about. I'm hoping it has an old school decal on it but I doubt it.

30 turn motor doesn't seem very exciting.

RC Car Action has one and is doing an online build. It looks like much of the car comes assembled, which is disappointing.

From where? Tower is still saying late July but I don't think I can wait that long.
