Would you buy a Striker &/or Sonic Fighter if they were re-released?

It looks like a toy RC buggy with its roll bar snapped off in an accident and never repaired.

Saito's comment made me wonder why Tamiya didn't add a canopy.  

I mean, it's supposed to look like a jet fighter, but why is the pilot exposed like some biplane?  

If Tamiya rereleases Striker with a Lexan canopy, I might buy it.  (I drew a few lines on @evssv69's striker)

No I like it open and exposed despite the police cautions, the FX10 has an enclosed canopy but it then obscures the driver so it just  looks like one of the million other buggies out there.... the openness gives it a quirk.

Tamiya can sell the Striker with the canopy included.  Some may want it on, some may want cool wind in their hair (or helmet).

Is the Futaba FX10 a licensed buggy from Tamiya? 

It looks similar to the Striker/Sonic Fighter but its front shock tower is different in design. 

Does the Striker kit provide different shock towers?

I was just looking at the CRP front suspension conversion.

I have always seen them on the Hornet and Grasshoppers in the forum.

Anyone installed them on the Striker or Sonic Fighter?
