I confess that today I pulled the trigger on one

Stella Sold out in 3 hrs flat last night

Yep one is one the way for me too run at Boondal.

and here it is.

It's made in Japan not the Philippines like most of the Tamiya Re re.

That looks great!

Looks awesome Mark, Here's mine, still to build it though

Thanks guys.

Aaah a Stella kit I see too!!

Kym you will love the build as it's a quality kit compared to the re re from the philippines . It's very quick with a 17t pinion. Better balanced with the steering servo re located further forward. Should be stronger too with new plastics and more webbing in the rear arms. Dog bones make the tranny silky smooth as well.

Should be called Fox Evo!!!

Very nice indeed. Did the front anti-roll bar come with the kit and, if so, were you thinking of fitting it?

Sweet!

Looks great. Also, it looks like the wing has been redesigned. Not that I'm complaining, my original is all busted up, that one looks a little more durable.

Madracer's wing on his buggy pictured here is not the standard one, he used a TBG wing designed for the kyosho Javelin. And it looks great too.

Oh, thanks. Yeah, it does look great. I am glad to know that the one that comes with the kit is like the original.

I personally find the Fox's original wing is disproportionately small for the car, it looks too small to be of any use. Mark's wing upsize looks better to me.

They have officially hit the states, there's a UPS box waiting for me at my house! It's like Christmas 1985 all over again!!! lol.............

Also noticed the first US based Ebay auction for a NovaFox hit today, there were none out yesterday when I happened to check. Listed at..... $279 plus shipping!!!!!!! Damn! If it sells for that I might have to flip mine and buy another lol! Got mine from Tower for $169 after $20 discount. Tower shows them still out of stock, I guess I'm lucky to get one now.

The re re Fox is somewhat strange as Stella sold out of stock in 3 hrs. Rc Mart got a 2nd shipment in sold out in 2 weeks with a higher price tag of $145.

Stella's price has been taken off which means a new price will be adjusted .

I feel Tamiya pushed there existing stock out to get the jump on the rc10. Original release date for the Fox was August. Stella still has back orders to fill then there is all of other Hobby shops & E bay shops.

I pre-ordered mine from Tower, still hasn't come yet. They are saying Late September now.
