the open cockpit with driver on a production car hinted at it- I dont recall a lot of cars coming with body. The wheel was a dead give a way as far as kyosho goes, but there are so many plazma and fantoms out there I was still just guessing. The MKII was the one I Drooled over in the 1988 Tower cata...

Right above you in oreeeeegon:-) sorry, i will update my profile.

Now...to open my mint in box ############## and build it for this silly little contest:-)

Just out of curiosity, why were you preferring repair over replacement? Future collectability?

Kyosho plazma mkII

(MkII? Who knows, there were a hundred of em! Lol)

Awe shucks! I was going to guess egress because of the bubbles behind the side window, and narrow wing but man that body pin pic threw me for a loop! I still cant picture that on the car!

I had one when they were current, it was disappointing! The motor mounted up high, odd battery placement, terrible shocks, and a body that only a mother could love made me want to have a couple on the shelf when i started collecting. I sold them long ago, and miss them dearly. I wouldnt mind re-addi...

back in the day i cut out many many g10 chassis and parts. To this day when i sneeze real good i swear i can smell the fiberglass still in my lungs. Pretty sure thats not good...

Not sure if anyone is looking but digikey sells the amp brand 2 and 3 pin connectors quite cheap! 4 males and 4 females with 10 pins each and first class mail ran me just under $9.

When soldering batteries it is important to get the heat right, and yet not hold the heat on the cells too long. I use a cheap weller station but have also had great success with the mini butane iron from radio shack and frys. At frys it goes under the isotip brand name. Works awesome and lets you g...

The percentage is the amount of nitromethane that is in the fuel. 12% or 15% , 10%, 20% they will all work just fine. 20 is just the most common and what i would recommend

Great price, its a RTR RC10gt. Fun truck. Use car 20%. Probably best to pick up a spare glow plug while your at the store.

it was a decent basher but not really much more than that. I think parts are pretty well gone based on my searching the website

I miss my old stash of cars. I cant remember if most of them went to Switzerland or Australia. This is the old hobby room....
