monty - January 13, 2007 09:55 AM (GMT)

:drool: :drool:

where the hell did u find that????????

scoobster - January 13, 2007 10:24 AM (GMT)
I e-mail the guy last night and at the time it had bids of about $250 i asked what the shipping costs would be and if he had a buy it now price and when i logged on this morning he had changed the listing with a link to the US postal office for shipping costs and added a buy it now so i just jumped on it :D

tomstacey - January 13, 2007 10:25 AM (GMT)
Twas on eBay mate.. I had it watched but missed the Buy it now!!

How Could I????

scoobster - January 13, 2007 10:38 AM (GMT)
Sorry Tom it was only by chance i looked at it this morning or i might have missed the buy it now!!!! i guess it's quite rare then with it only being available in Japan do you know how many were made?

tomstacey - January 13, 2007 11:05 AM (GMT)
Very Very few mate. It is truly the holy grail for Lazer Fans. Myself and Matt have wanted one for ages.

Do me a favour bud... don't run it, I could probably count how many there are in that condition on one hand!!

I'm glad its gone to someone we know though mate. Well done on that BIN. If I'd have seen it I would have pounced too! :D

monty - January 13, 2007 11:14 AM (GMT)

scoobster - January 13, 2007 11:32 AM (GMT)
Monty is that a press photo from Kyosho? just i would like to keep it as original as i can and as there's not Box Art i would like to have it painted something like the press/promo paint job or should i leave it un-painted :question:

Don't worry Tom it will never be used while i have it and you asnd matt will get first dibs if i ever sell it :thumbs_up2:

monty - January 13, 2007 11:44 AM (GMT)
yeh i think its a promo from kyosho and reckon thats as box art as your gonna get mate but not speaking/reading Jap i have no idea really lol

12th demon - January 13, 2007 12:23 PM (GMT)

Legend.

Cheers Del. :cheers: :thumbs_up:

Matt - January 13, 2007 05:04 PM (GMT)
should be a number on the box 1of300 etc because as far as i know only 300odd were made, and they were only available from kyosho to team drivers or as a special order for retail customers. very hard to get hold of and they were built to order all so you had to wait like 6 weeks from ordering one!

Yeah monty did an awesome job on the TRF501X and off only a few photos of the ZX-5 :good_job:

tomstacey - February 1, 2007 07:35 PM (GMT)
I heard on the grapevine that Mr. Scooby Doo has a ZXS in his possession now.. Come on then mate.. where's the pics?? :)

scoobster - February 2, 2007 08:35 PM (GMT)
I wll grab some over the weekend mate and post them up, still no luck on the decals :( i contacted the seller and he told me he's had 4 of them over the years all nib and only one of the kit's ever had decals with it so i guess might never find them

He does still have one with a load of hop up's like All titanium screws, hingepins, tie rods, Atlas CVD's, blue Atlus concave screw washers, Xray thumb screw battery hold downs and all the titanium is anodized gold on it he said he might sell for the right price but woud that be worth more than an original nib or new built one?


tomstacey - February 2, 2007 09:36 PM (GMT)
I reckon less than a NIB and maybe less than a New build.. originality sells vintage buggies really.

tell him I'll give him $400 for it ;) :joker:

tomstacey - February 2, 2007 09:37 PM (GMT)
I've a funny feeling too that the ZXS Evo (2002) version didn't actually have any decals.

The 1996 one would have done I reckon.. and the manual is for the 1996 one even with the 2002 ones (it was sort of a re-release thing)

Matt - February 2, 2007 10:20 PM (GMT)
how about asking Jimmy from Oople to make a set of stickers for you?

i'm sure he could design some ;)

scoobster - February 4, 2007 11:48 PM (GMT)
Yeah i could do i have a photo of the decal sheet but that's about as close as i think i will get to the originals

scoobster - February 12, 2007 07:37 PM (GMT)
Just added another one but don't tell the ball & chain!!!!

A Richard Weatherley Built and Signed Predator X10 in a Signed Box :D
