Which NIB out right now will be worth the most in 2037?

[THEYTOOKMYTHUMB]

Just curious on everyone's opinion. Keeping any possibility of re-re out of the equation. I'll bump this in 25 years and we'll see who was right.

I asked a similar question several months ago and got some interesting answers. I'm going to try to keep my Losi Strike nib since it wasn't popular and had a short production run.

I will get things started with the Losi BK xxx .

DEX 210, But it will probably be a SC like the slash since its what got everyone in or back in.

x2 for both above...

Durango stuff becuase it's special (high-end).

Traxxas stuff because it got so many people into the hobby.

I will be 78 in 25 years. Can't wait to see " whats old is new"

[THEYTOOKMYTHUMB]

I would lean towards high end also. XRAY. Or... hard to get now? Imagine NIB in 25 years...

Traxxass has saturated the market so much, I doubt it will be one of their 'things' that will be of value.

The 1/14 scale semi's from tamiya wil be popular

Good point. Lots of people BITD got into RC with an entry level Tamiya or Kyosho, but there isn't exactly a huge cult following for most of those vintage entry levels. Haven't run across KyoshoShadowTalk.com yet... It seems like the cars that really got people amped BITD are the ones people are still hunting for now: RC10, Optima, Avante, etc. (Although I wouldn't mind digging up an old Shadow, it was fun to bash...)

Your kidding right? I guess you havent checked out tamiyaclub. Check through the showrooms and you will see so many hornets, grasshoppers and frogs

Tamiya's first World Championship winning car (even though it wasnt their design) - the TRF 414, driven by Surikarn - is bound to be a real collectible.

Couldn't we say that about Associated?

IMO no. Of all the hobby shops I've been in, Traxxass was those marketed things in there. I will say this though, perhaps their X0-1 might be sought after 20 years from now.

I’m guessing a lot of the current 1/8 scale buggies (ie. RC8) will be the next hot collectable. In general they get raced pretty hard and I doubt there will be that many nice examples by the time the current crop of youths start feeling nostalgic twenty years from now.
