B2 vs B3 bodies
does anyone know how different the b2 body is to the b3 body, ie, could you use a b3 body on a b2?
I have a B2, that i would like to get a new body for (eventually), and I see that the B3 body is still available in a few places.....I would guess they are very close, just subtley different.

Re: B2 vs B3 bodies
They are interchangeable, the B2 body is also called "RCPS Turbo Mirage II" and is a slammed version of the Turbo Mirage with very similar features including the "dished" hood. The B3 body is a
plainer and less detailed version, without the cool features.
I have a NIP RCPS Turbo Mirage II, or the B2 Stealth body
that will be going to Jay for re-release whenever he says he's ready

Re: B2 vs B3 bodies
this one in tower looks an awful lot like the B2, moreso than the B3 body you have included. it's the 6142. Is this a case where tower has the wrong picture?

Re: B2 vs B3 bodies
I think Reggie's B3 pic is of a factory team version which used the Proline "Deja Vu" body instead of the standard B3 body.

That is great news, I've been trying to find one for sometime nowCharlie don't surf wrote:I have a NIP RCPS Turbo Mirage II, or the B2 Stealth bodythat will be going to Jay for re-release whenever he says he's ready

The 6142 body does look very similar to the B2 stealth/Mirage II body, the scoop is a little different, and the top veiw profile of the sides are a little different. same window profiles, same dished roof, nose, etc.
