THE SMOOTHEE 56 Posted April 27, 2017 Heads up! Boomers are now on ebay from one of our favourite distributors in Hong Kong. Got a crackin price on one shipped Down Under. Kits include ESC too. What a relief it is to tick this one off the list. For personal reasons, this will be a special build for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaini 3 Posted May 16, 2017 Is it possible that it's already sold out? Will a new batch follow? How was it with the 2008 version? One production run only? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wondered the same when I got mine. I ordered 2 Boomerangs and got a Novafox and Boomerang and they were pretty happy when I said I would keep the Fox even though it cost more (paid for 2 Boomers) There is a local online store that still has them though if you're in New Zealand, good price too, NZD $295 delivered, or about 150 pounds or USD $200 and that includes the TBLE-02S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter_B 997 Posted May 17, 2017 I had a call earlier this morning from my local store. They've had one of the Boomerangs, which they had on order, turn up today unexpectedly. They weren't expecting any for another few weeks. Needless to say, as there was only one person with their name down for one and that person was me, I'll be picking it up on Saturday (unless I can manage to get some time off work before then). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter_B 997 Posted May 19, 2017 Picked mine up this morning from Howes Models in Kidlington. Pictured with a couple of 4500mah NiMH packs, which I also got at the same time, and the Core RC radio and charger that came earlier in the week. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah when I first spoke to the store I got mine from I was told that Tamiya hadn't sent enough in the initial shipment, but there was a larger shipment due in June. They weren't expecting to get any at all until that later shipment arrived, so it was a nice surprise to get a phone call last week Currently got front and rear gearboxes assembled with suspension arms, and a few bits and pieces attached to the chassis. Will be continuing from step 17 in the manual tonight. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
