It's about time some more information is released, AE needs to keep the hype going before it dies off.

Duh, who doesn't?! The re-re RC10 is coming in a couple of months...that's my excuse.

The same can be said for most of the things I own: studio quality hi-fi, top end custom bike, etc. Quality items are just beautiful.

Dude.....I'm into the same hobbies.....Van Alstine MOS FET Series C Amp/Pre amp.....Look 586 bike (among others).....RC10.....

I like the cut of your jib.

This thread has lost its steam. Was Associated's plan to create a crazy amount of hype, thus getting a huge amount of pre-orders and then tell us nothing until late August? I suppose it was smart on their part, but it seems a lazy way to go about this.

You read my mind

they better give us something...I can easily click a cancel button and not get an "outdated" buggy and buy a losi 22

Come on guys, be patient

Some of us have lived through 15 or more Tamiya re-releases !

I'm getting more excited about seeing the re-re but I don't think AE is catering to the anxious fans looking for all the information immediately. They teased us with some limited advertising to effectively get the word out which is working a lot of enthusiasts up into an impatient frenzy. Now they'll allow anticipation to build over the summer to increase the panic-stricten pre-ordering of multiple kits. Such unfair torture! I'm sure as soon as it's released they'll go into a full advertising blitz. I'm a patient person busy building up another car for the VONATS so I can wait.....got aaallll summer.

But AE is betting you won't do that, now will you.

cant wait for my new losi 22 to get here...its gonna look awesome next to my losi 22sct. im still shaking my head at associated for just adding a dot and a number after the b4 again instead of rolling the dice and coming out with the b5. I did however find a use for that old b4 and repop heavy metal body collecting dust on my shelf. I guess ill wait till the buzz it gone with the re re rc10 and pick one up for way to much money later on down the line.

and my 22 hangs on the wall and doesnt even have electronics in it anymore...

i'll enjoy my re-re and drive the poop out of it, flog it mercilessly around the track with the biggest grin.

im getting the 22 for a complete different reason though...a couple of us are looking to revive/reintroduce an old class from the mid 90's at the local indoor track in santa clarita
