Has anyone received their Boomerangs from any sellers outside of Japan yet? Just curious to know if/when it will make it to other countries

Sorry, my post should be deleted as wrong quote has been added, someone mentioned Boomerang is available in HK, which shops?

[Rexv5]

Mine turned up today in Australia from hobby search 1999 co

[madmickmalone]

Mine came from Futaba Co, the box seems smaller

HK---Kwong Wa Street. Hongkongers seem to be quite into rc. evenings, shops tend to have a number of customers.

Thanks for that, shops do tend to open up late in that area, but there are few and few these days.

That particular shop, you can't swing a cockroach in it without hitting RC boxes

Would be cool if they re-re'd the Winger bodyset too!!

[JNSD1]

Very frustrating, I can't find one anywhere to order... The main issue is the Aussie distributor is new (changed hands, couldn't have come at a worse time for re-re's) so can't get on in AUS at the moment and all the overseas stores are out of them. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be all ears! Thanks.

yeah the only re-re-re they know about is PajMTW (looks like Japan sent them a probuilt sample!) and nothing else afaik

sounding like this batch was intended to be local release but a few got shipped out; who knows but chances are T'll crank out more later on

Hi, 

Can anyone tell me if the 2017 Boomerang box is the same size of the last release?

Yep. All Boomerang kits, including the 1986 original, came in a Hornet sized box.

thanks bloke, thought it was to maximise profit

[madmickmalone]

Looks like RCJAZ has boomerang in stock and RCMART has them on order.

[gt6++]

Boomer is in at stellamodels.  Pretty reasonable price too.

Yeeepie

At last someone is doing CNC rear alloy shock towers for Boomerangs and Big Wigs.

My Re Re Boomer has been sidelined due to a broken rear shock tower. Stupid prices on the bay for one so waited for the Re re re of the Boomer but not many around and again not cheap. Just about to fabricate one myself then saw a Alloy CNC rear tower on the bay for $30au posted so ordered it. Looks nice too.

Can't wait to get it on the track again.

The re-rere boomer will be supplied with the tble2s. Could someone confirm?

[Jonathon Gillham]

It depends where you get it. Mine came from Japan and had no ESC included. If it has one I assume the TBLE-02S though

[mastino]

well, I'll wait for the tamico shipment.

Have you got yours yet & if so how are they  ??.  I ordered two & still waiting for them too arrive   . 

[MAD RACER]

Hi Matt.

Yep I got mine within 2 weeks. They are very nicely made and bolts straight up.  Nice to have some shock adj available too.

Ordered another one for my Big Wig Re re.

[gpgp01]

Boomers have come in stock in rcmart. I think the price is ok, if the shipping cost is reasonable when to order it.
