  1. Please can you post the link to the definition of "restoration" or "former state" that includes the statement "original parts only" or equivalent, I am happy to stand corrected.
  2. I have a feeling that if enough people choose to take this course of action Tamiya will take note. I have more Associated and Losis than I have Tamiya's, boycotting Tamiya will little impact on my enjoyment of this particular hobby. And I'm pleased there are people such as yourself to adopts this option, there's nothing like a varied assault.
  3. Yes I am more than happy to spend my money with other manufacturers and on other hobbies. Until a solution is found. In your opinion and please don't belittle the opinion of others. I susspect not for good quality decals.
  4. I've looked into this and understand that it is a course of action that Tamiya could take should they wish, it would certainly sort the reproduction of manual and parts issues and with a little fettling probably most of the decal and body problems too. So with this in mind and until Tamiya displays the will to find a better way I have decided to be far more selective in my Tamiya purchases in the future, I will no longer be purchasing nice to have models simply because it's the latest Tamiya release, however I will still buy any of what I deem must have items (I'm not going to cut my nose off).
  5. Could Tamiya allow the reproduction of their discontinued products with licensing agreements providing those products don't infringe the agreement previously made by Tamiya with other companies?
  6. Please Mr Tamiya find a better way PS you can't enter a blank post it generates an error message.
  7. MrLexan does a lovely Parma Stinger, I used to run one on my Hornet BITD, definitely worth checking out.
  8. Woops sorry my bad, I must do some Tamiya motor homework
  9. mrlexan already does them http://www.tamiyaclub.com/trades_model.asp...9033&id=514
  10. Anyone know of a great UK retro Ford forum? I'm looking for technical support as much as readers rides, a MK1 MK2 Escort bias would be best. Thanks for any advice.
  11. Cool does that mean there's a Cheetah on its way , my guess (for what it's worth) is Tamiya will produce whatever makes money and I would not be surprised if the remaining two SRBs get an airing along with the MB and BF. I own one of these Mountaineer body sets and IMHO they were old stock, not freshly produced which makes more sense to me.
  12. This is a bit confusing as these are racing slicks yet the kit appears to be supplied with treaded tires (looking at all the new builds)
  13. Please can someone provide me with a part number for the kit supplied tires for the 1/10 58413: Lamborghini Countach or a link to the applicable on line manual if available. I've had a good google search but don't seem to be able to find anything. Thank you.
  14. It's painted detailing your honour
  15. I was hoping for a new TRF 2WD, I guess a re re SRB will do for now
  16. Thanks for the responses it looks like they have updated over night it must just be a refreshy catchy uppy thing.
  17. I am in the process of updating my showroom pictures with better images, however once I have overwritten the existing images (and all the images within the specific model have been replaced) the lead image on my showroom main page does not appear to change Am I doing something wrong or is this a site bug that needs to be addressed? I have repeated the process with the first / lead image on a number of occasions for the same model but no success Please advise, thanks.
  18. I decided to leave the brushed motors for my bashers, I've fitted an LRP Sphere ESC / X11 7.5T brushless combo into the Astute so I've dropped to a 22 tooth for starters.
