Toykid 596 Posted May 4, 2013 Anyone checked the inside cover of RCCA july 2013? Double page spread of original RC10 advert, no other info on page. It has been rumoured and petitioned for on other forums. Is this just an expensive tease or will they follow through? James. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Duke 6 11 Posted May 4, 2013 Cool if true.... never could score that one when released... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wandy 1527 Posted May 4, 2013 I've just downloaded the issue, wow I really hope this is true. I know nothing about Associated's culture but why else would a company do such a thing? I have wanted one of these for ages and to get the NIB experience would be fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAD RACER 566 Posted May 4, 2013 This rumor has been going on for the past 2 yrs. Would be cool but I don't want one that bad especially if it retains it's original price tag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Duke 6 11 Posted May 4, 2013 Almost picked one up last week mib..... glad I passed. Any way to post a pic of spread ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wandy 1527 Posted May 4, 2013 It's this photo over a two page spread, simply with the words "Team Associated RC10" in the top right corner. Very promising IMO, why else would they do such a thing if they were not planning a re-release? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markbt73 5316 Posted May 4, 2013 That would indeed be good news... but only if they do it right. White nylon, short arms, 6-gear transmission, jellybean wheels... and made in California, not China. Otherwise, no thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy_w_beans 4272 Posted May 4, 2013 Since Thunder Tiger owns Associated, I have to assume this will be produced in China. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alfagta 126 Posted May 4, 2013 i think it would have to be made in the far east if they are going to re re it , to make it in america i think the RRP would be around $800 , i wouldnt be interested at that price and if it is going to be a LTD ED without spares back up for many years then its a big no no, i do really really want one but only if i can thrash the butt off it , then again they may be using the image to promote the brand as its a famous car that changed the game .

TRF201-Driver 14 Posted May 4, 2013 I remember reading that most of the original molds are gone, which is why it have never been re-released. It would be interesting if they made some new ones to release this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wandy 1527 Posted May 5, 2013 There was no other information other than the photo I posted above. No wording whatsoever except for the "Team Associated RC10" in the top corner. Here's a photo from the digital issue on the iPad... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mtbkym01 4008 Posted May 5, 2013 Hmm, this is interesting, I would definately consider one of these Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadWagon 146 Posted May 6, 2013 I always wanted an RC10. Almost bought a basket case from a kid who found an old chassis in the woods, but the chassis was trashed and almost nothing was usable. I'd pick one up as long as the price is right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theibault 1535 Posted May 6, 2013 I'm excited if this is the case. Would love a third build of this icon and to be able to keep it!!

RichieRich 685 Posted May 6, 2013 Well, this is interesting. I wonder if AE's phones are blowing up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TA-Mark 195 Posted May 7, 2013 I'd wanted one since I first seen it in RCCA in 1986. Out of my price range now unless it gets a re-release. I took this photo of the original advert of the well read 1986 magazine. Notice the big tick. I ticked all the models in there I wanted. Nearly all of them! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Duke 6 11 Posted May 7, 2013 Ha Ha ! I used to dog ear the pages in hopes someone would see it and buy it out of kindness in my family .... Never worked ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
