Who owns every generation RC10?

Just curious, after a long focus on Losi I am a recent convert to the RC10 side and as usual going off the deep end. 2 new rere World's, a rere Classic and a few real old ebay clunkers for restoration have already entered my life. I intend to run the rere Worlds at local carpet offroad. I will document when I get it going.
But for some strange reason, I have a bug that says I should own every generation, I achieved it in Losi years ago before selling collection, I am assuming with all the crazy, I mean wonderful, people here someone has already done this with the RC10?

/With the rich history of the RC10, it's a bit hard to define what "every generation" means, really, as there have been so many "transitional" versions... do you make a difference between the early edinger and the edinger? Or, do you consider all gold-panned, 6G short front arms cars are one generation? and so on... and, most importantly: where are David's BoM winning cars fitting at all?!?
One thing for sure: there are lotsa folks with lotsa rc10's on this site, and that's awesome!

Hmmm, excellent question. How about we go with this for conversation here. A classic aluminum tub of some variety, B2, B3, B4, B5.

Anything with a cab forward body should not be considered a generation of the RC10. Just saying...

Ha - thought you were only talking about gold tubs
there'll be plenty of members that have one of each me thinks - the B2 being the weak link

I guess the question is ... did you mean "generation" of buggy or every "edition" of the original RC10 design?
I think I've owned/built every "generation" except the B3... As for "edition", my first was the RC10 6-gear CE... so I missed the earlier ones (tub and graphite), but built / ran just every one after I think...

That's too easy. More fun to take an antique and school the new cars

I still race the old cars mostly against new cars because there is not vintage classes locally.

I wish I owned every make of an RC10! That would be the ultimate collection.

At different times, I have owned an RC10 Edinger, an RC10 B3, an RC10 T3...and now in my collection is an RC10 WC re-re, and a RC10T2 complete chassis minus wheels/tires, body, and electronics.

For me, RC10 buggies stopped at the B2. Trucks stopped at the T3.

I think your aiming for every magazine article variant.
