Tower had the JJ in stock for about a week. I waited and watched my order status. When they went out of stock, I contacted Tower. They said 'oops, our bad'.

Geez..was I the only one to get a JJ from tower? I preordered on Aug 3rd which was the first day. Amain still shows some in stock..

I ordered mine from tower on the 3rd as well, still shows awaiting shipment but also says no stock or something like that. I did get one from Amain as a back up but it was $60 more and I'd really like to have one to build as well as to keep.

Interesting!! Nice to see it on the market again!!

Rumour has it that Team Associated was involved in this vehicle back then.

Had a yz10 back in the day.. which replaced my TT predators I had at the time... they were weak & seemed to always under steer.. the yok was Fab.. I just hit the button with modelsport for one .. Be great if it lands before the Xmas break, then I can relive 30 odd years ago with a nice build & a few beers !

What Paint job is the next question??

Cheers

Jon

Weird. I just got an email notice sent by my nearby LHS that the JJ Ultima was available to order, not even a week ago.

At $600, I'll take a hard pass on that.

Yeah Tower has had them in stock for a couple weeks now. Must have got a second batch

Wow that's exciting

Amain has photos up now as well. Last photo shows bulkhead cap removed and shot of gear diff.

Oh nice. I snagged those pics so people don't need to go searching.

I don't really like the stark white color parts. Mine might need a quick tea bath to dirty them up

Yeah they are a little bright but it sure does look good
