As a xmas present for myself, I bought the EDS sets. Though they're still in transit, I know they're quality stuff and I'll like them. Thought the color coded end caps and size indicator rings are cool and useful. Best of all, I found them for a very good price.

USD26/GBP17 per set from Tamiyaland on ebay. Shipping for both is $11.

Thanks for all the insight, this looks like the set I am going for. I knew the time had come to invest some money in decent tools when I stripped several hex screws on my yz10 pavidis, I'm now left with a motor mount stuck on the carbon chassis!!

I remember when I was a kid having a set of tamiya screw drivers and they were the best fit you could imagine, no other screw driver would compare, this is the quality im looking for. Gonna have to look out for a set of those, hope the EDS set of hex drivers compare.

Would still like to get snap on but as Paul says, only the old school stuff is worth its weight :)

You'll be very happy with EDS'. I got mine last night and they look superb. Very precise machining. They're too nice I think I need a tool pouch or a new hauler bag with tool rack. :twisted:
