Fortunately my wallet is safe from this purchase. I am sure we will see them on ebay soon.

I guess I’m more easily swayed than you then
Ordered mine through the local importer as soon as I heard.
Now all we need is associated to pull finger and do a 91 worlds buggy

Re: 60th Anniversary Joel Johnson Ultima?!?!
Magnificent!
Curious, how do you feel about this re-re? You did all of the hard work to recreate the legend, and now any idiot with a credit card (me, for example) can have one.
On a serious note, from what you can see in the photos, how accurate is the re-re?

Re: 60th Anniversary Joel Johnson Ultima?!?!
Thanks ! And I think it’s very cool that’s it being released. It’s different enough on details from og that easy to tell difference (rere gearbox, servo mounted differently, the rear shock tower is wrong but can be switched to correct one from @GoMachV , threads on gold shocks, etc..1911Colt wrote: ↑Thu Aug 03, 2023 1:02 pmMagnificent!

Preordered through tower, thanks for that! Don't forget to use the code "hobby" to save $55 (or $75 if you are a super saver member). It's actually best to become a super saver member for $10 to get the $20 more off, netting you another $10 savings plus future perks
