I’ve been waiting for a NOS 3-hole C-tree to come available for 20 years. Considering the kit got a measly one month production run, I think it’s fair to assume that spare parts trees never made it out of the factory. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, my understanding of that kit is that there were no spares ever produced/sold. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RC4x4 215 Posted November 4, 2023 This awesome news! Gonna pick up two of them. I have a spot right between the HotShot and the Super HotShot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pizza Frog 787 Posted March 5 I finally gave in and ordered one, it's just too good looking to resist. I usually prime driver figures before painting them with x paint, is that normal? I'm thinking about skipping the primer when I paint the drivers torso and head for this car. (because I ran out of primer) Are you guys just applying the x-f2 and x-11 paint straight to the chassis?

Twinfan 2452 Posted March 6 Not the chassis, but regular driver figures, I just paint directly onto them without primer. I guess it depends how serious you want to get about it, but then if you're that serious you'd be airbrushing.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
