So ok like the topic says....what are you guys collecting (R/C Car specific) while you think it is at the bottom of the market and why?

Ill start. Ive been wanting a collection of R/C racing stuff from the early to mid 1990's. The cars are out of my price range, however as a kid I remember drooling over the other stuff as well, like chargers, speed controls, dynos, motor lathes, all that tool and shop type stuff...so I decided to collect that. Im amazed I can pick up NIB chargers and motor lathes and everything else, for a few bucks, even on ebay! Maybe I am the only one that has a collection of chargers haha! So.....what are you collecting while its "cheap"?

Picked up some of these wolfpack saddle packs that AE has on sale for $10. Only 25c but still, for $10

wow that's cheap. So cheap in fact I just bought 2, plus enough stuff in the clearance and rc10 section to get free shipping!

Had to get 2 of those also...
True, 25C isn't going to make it scream, but for just puttering around the yard, or better yet letting my kids have some fun, it's an awesome deal. Might even grab a couple more...
Thanks for the heads up on those...
:D

They must have a ton if still in stock. Might be great for xx4 builds and so on. since most the new stuff seams to be going shorty.

When I ordered mine about a week ago, it said "limited quantity", so evidently they got more in.
