Tower had the JJ in stock for about a week. I waited and watched my order status. When they went out of stock, I contacted Tower. They said 'oops, our bad'.

I ordered mine from tower on the 3rd as well, still shows awaiting shipment but also says no stock or something like that. I did get one from Amain as a back up but it was $60 more and I'd really like to have one to build as well as to keep.

Had a yz10 back in the day.. which replaced my TT predators I had at the time... they were weak & seemed to always under steer.. the yok was Fab.. I just hit the button with modelsport for one .. Be great if it lands before the Xmas break, then I can relive 30 odd years ago with a nice build & a few beers !

What Paint job is the next question??

Cheers

Jon

Weird. I just got an email notice sent by my nearby LHS that the JJ Ultima was available to order, not even a week ago.

At $600, I'll take a hard pass on that.

Oh nice. I snagged those pics so people don't need to go searching.

I don't really like the stark white color parts. Mine might need a quick tea bath to dirty them up
