Reply to "Kyosho 1:18 scale model"

Good News, Derrick has the cars in the shop, and has started shipping them out this week. I stopped by today and he's just floored by the response to this model in the Pantera community.

When the model was first announced, he had a half dozen orders, but because of our group buy he went out on a limb and ordered a dozen cases (72 cars), every one was sold and he's busy printing off shipping labels and moving them out the door.

On the down side, he said the supply is drying up and he doesn't think he'll be able to get any more red cars (maybe a couple of black cars will come his way though).

For those of you who pre-ordered, the cars should be showing up in the next few days (or weeks; depending on how far they're being shipped and any delays going across borders).

I haven't checked to see if the group order promotion code is still working (maybe for the upcoming GTS models), Derrick's plan was to remove the code when the cars arrived at his shop.

I just checked e-bay, and the prices for the models range from $120USD (without the factory packaging) to $300USD ... plus shipping of approx. $30USD.
