I appreciate they were collectable and rare but never appreciated they were that valuable.
A NIB 4-10 Legend will fetch around $4K - $5K if you find the right buyer.

Looks like it's coming back for real. Seriously. Straight from Eustace himself. He mentioned possibly using the Stealth gearbox instead of the MIP one.

I can't post a link using my phone. I'm sure someone can soon enough.

I had to stop watching quite a while back as he doesn't seem to care about facts, just clicks. He was corrected on FB when he dropped the link to his YT but I think he likes the fact that news doesn't have to be factual it just needs to be reported lol.

I get that totally. The whole hyped up drama and breaking news in this space feel even weirder to me. I come to this world to escape that everywhere else. Like do I really need to know 24 hours sooner than the actual company factual announcement a day later about an RC car that will come out 5 months from now.

I heard that Tamiya and AE will be releasing a RC10 BlockHead Motors edition with MIP cable drive. Prove me wrong. :lol:

Like the CNN and MSNBC of the RC world.

My old employer used to say "I don't care what they are saying about me as long as they are saying my name". I never really got that one. I care deeply about what people are saying about my name.

I always find these types of videos amusing. Basically a youtuber gets some info from the exact same places we do and then posts a video like they are some sort of authority. Amusing. I guess it's for the fringe low information RC fan.

Of course it would be cool to see them bring this back, but it does kind of feel like one of those "I'll believe it when I see it" type of deals. I mean I'll buy a kit if they do follow through just to have one, but until then, head on over to FactoryWorks.com for your RC10 4wd needs!

It's being reported elsewhere that Old School RC on FakeBook has interviewed Eustace yesterday where he announced the MIP 4-10 re-release as a collaborative effort with AE. The RC10 and 4-10 conversion in one package. Perhaps someone here could do a little fact checking?

Then there's probably some toilet blocks at RC race tracks in Australia that you probably shouldn't visit...... just saying...... ;)

Stop falling for the bait, guys. MIP re-releasing a 4-10 Legend kit is about as likely as Hunter Biden serving a jail sentence.

But there was this screwdriver they announced they were going to make... Did anyone else that made a 4wd kit offer a new, 'best design ever' screwdriver? 🤔 :lol:

Eustace actually spoke about it, not much except saying it won't be an exact recreation and he hopes to have one ready to race in March so we will see!
