Question ? RC KIts nib

Post by rctenracer »

I was asked whats the rarest rc nib kit out there. I said they are all rare if you can't find the one you want. I have never given it much thaught . But if you had a choice what nib kit would you love to own. For me it would be one of the first edinger kits.

My cereal bowl is way more rare than that but then again rareity doesn't always equal desirability

Ditto.

Edit: According to the Tamiya Treasure website, only 300 kits were produced, and 1/3 of those were imported to the U.S. and Europe.

And maybe the M.A.N.E. Eclipse? The original owner/creator of the company said that he estimated only 75-100 kits were ever sold. I happen to have one NIB kit. 8)

I'd also take a NIB SWB Cat.

Upon release they quickly became to 4wd, what the rc10 was to 2wd... The car to beat.
Revolutionary for their time. Actually, probably a bit too revolutionary until they tamed them down.
