The "Postman Brought Me" Thread

[Wandy]

I just can't decide if I want a FAV - if they don't bring out the Wild One then I'll settle for a FAV. I checked the Stella site and it's already out of stock!

Yes, they sold out their 1st batch within 24 hours.

I wouldn't worry about the Wild One not arriving, it's a near certainty to happen.

Dirtiest. Servo. Ever.

In fact this is probably one of the dirtiest cars I've ever bought, used as Mr. Tamiya intended

Anyway, it should clean up no probs, and who can resist a car that comes with one of these?

Let the plowing begin . That would have to be one of the dirtiest one i have ever seen as well .

[mtbkym01]

A new bumper for my Bigwig , and 2 sets of Astute front wheels, thinking rears will be cheap once the Egress Re-Re came out, now knowing that that aint happening, I feel quite cranky

[KalEl63]

[wildwillydriver]

Got my next year race car.........

Here below what i found when i opened the box...... Probably the wrost packaging i ever saw and received my self......

Do you know what is it?

Here below after 2 hours of work..... For my luck 1:8 buggy are bulletproof, no damage at all.....

Here we go a TRF801x 1:8 nitro buggy + more or less 3 cars in spares.

Next steps will be clean and organize all spares than totally strip, clean and rebuild the car to be ready for winter series and and 2012 championship.

I got a crawler chassis and gearbox and a set of HUGE shocks. I have no idea what to do with the shocks, they are very strong so probably from a 1;5 car, useless to me so if anyone wants them, just let me know.

Anyone know who made this crawler chassis? It will have a set of TLT axles on it if one of my trades works out okay.

Vintage Holiday Buggy

It needs some TLC but it's basically sound. I'm thinking I may swap the HB body onto my Sand Rover's chassis and then use this (damaged) chassis as the basis for a J-man/Toykid style SRB conversion. But I've got a couple of other projects to finish first - where have I heard that before??

cheers,

Rob

Yes the three car rule . Just can't wait to start to put one together . Then the other two stay NIB .

FUN FUN FUN to be had . WOOHOO .

Just got this Astute in the mail along with a few other bits & pieces from JR-RC

but my order was short a couple of parts Never had that problem from Jason before, sent him a message so hope to sort it out.

Astute come complete with box & Hi-cap dampers which is a bonus, but no manual & has Super Astute wheels instead of originals.

First impressions, the car is used but is in pretty good condition with no visible broken parts.

The box is in good cond. but tbh I've never really been a box collector.

come with a almost new msc & bits & peices.

Plan is to install some electrics & give it a light run before stripping it down & cleaning it.

Then try to hunt down some original parts that I know will be hard to find.

So far I know I need some original rims & tyres & 1x chassis stay part BH5 from the metal parts bag.

If anyone can help PM me Paypal waiting.

lots more stuff on the way in the next couple of weeks too

[Wez-li]

@Madmuz77 - That looks like a nice Astute, no broken parts??!

Plus the box looks MINT, I like boxes

You need professional help!

You don't need three, two is sufficient.

I'll pm you my address so you can send me one, I'll pay postage obviously

Received this yesterday. I was after the M3 GT2 shell and the tamiya lighting unit. Modelzone has this for £129 delivered so couldnt resist.

Planning on an orange and black theme

Also got this for my DF-03Ra chasis and also contemplating a "different" paint job - maybe all black with gold wheels.
