[viperkilla]

WOW, thanks for the pics itsalllies, do you have any idea when we can expect to see them in stores?

[itsalllies]

late september or mid october but most likely october but maybe the 3rd

[viperkilla]

Hmmmm....This may not work but, is it possible to put those motors in a zip zap :p

[Bad Company]

Here is some bad news for people like me that like to get the jump on things. I talked to the gals at the 800 line, and you will not be able to order X Mods from them. They will only be sold in stores.

[airline2]

i wonder why?

[ZipRC]

perhaps america is forcing people to walk to stores because over 50% of america is overweight....or it coudl be somethign else...

[Cubicle]

Ok BC i hope your contact is wrong (although i doubt it). Gimme a frickin' break! There are MANY people on this board who would like to purchase an XMOD ( and not just in the states .....) and they arent allowing them to be purchased via the 1 800 line. What the F*** is that?!?!?

Are they trying to LOSE sales? Do they want people to purchase via EBAY as opposed to purchasing directly from them?

haha i think thats exaclty why...

[itsalllies]

it is probale because the 1-800 #s sale money goes to the hq and the stores are losing sales or you could be right






you aint gona get a dolla out of him no catilac o purm you cant see cause bender is a mother f***** P.I.M.P.

[viperkilla]

Or....Maybe the weight of the packages would be too heavy and they wouldnt want to increase the price of shipping. Hmmm....

I'M SPEECHLESS

[denden]

What scale are these cars ?? I've been away for a while .

[itsalllies]

1/28th!!!!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Mcfly anyone home

[bdebde]

They are probably only selling in stores because the supply will be very limited like the first Zip Zaps.

[viperkilla]

Is it just me or does the car look kinda small.

[kwikbb]

Nice pics! I love it, it comes in it's own carrying case.
Looks like the XMOD's got good potential, gonna have to swing by the local RS and see if they got'em in stock yet.

[viperkilla]

I usually call them before I actually go there. I want to make sure they have the things i want.

I here ya there, in most cases that's what i do... but lucky for me they're about 2 min. from the office and since i'm in today it's no biggie :)

[cj1267]

Kwik where have you been hiding miss you on Bitpimps there is even a missing person report filed for you.

Hopefully we get the cars in our stores before the show on the 16th in NYC at the Expo Center in Madison Square Garden.

lol-
hey cj, good to see you too bro... yeah i got an email from cabo the other day just haven't had a chance to reply back yet. Should be back in up that piece soon enough lol.

Yeah was thinking about maybe trying to attend that shindig up at the Garden... it'd be nice i'm sure!

[outlawblaze]

You guys might see the xmods quicker than you think. I work for a franchise radioshack and we already got 2 of them, so I now own one. These things are really cool. I got the nissan skyline. They cost our store $49.99 so they will cost more than that at a regular store. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

[metsrule119]

I dont believe this outlaw guy

[outlawblaze]

Thats great and you are entitled to your opinion, but how about this I will tell you how many screws hold it together and then when you get one you can tear it apart and find out for yourself. Fact of the matter I don't care if anybody belives me but I know the truth and I might just post some pics today. Or won't that be good enough?

[vtheo]

i believe you outlaw;) i really hope that the controller is compatable with other rcs...

[Old Crow]

Not that this is real big news, this is the least of what I, or anyone would want out of all X MODS, but yesterday I went to the local Radio Shack and they had one X MODS Battery Charger that comes with 8 AAA Batteries. This is exactly as advertised in the Super Street mini mag. I picked it up for $24.99. It is a great deal considering that a 4 pack of Radio Shack AAA Rechargable Batteries are $19.99 ! They said that was all they got in was just one, no other X MODS or Accesories, thought that was strange.

[Bad Company]

Old Crow,
Have you had a chance to try out those NiMH batteries yet? Is there a noticable difference from the regular alkaline batteries in the car speed or runtimes?

[Old Crow]

You guys are going to think this is sick, but I have had a X MODS since Saturday, and I still have not even opened it, I have been too busy to get involved with it. This weekend I will for sure. Sorry Bad Company can't tell you, but if they have not come out by the weekend, I will give a report.

[VuN86]

no time? u have time to go around reading posts but no time to play around a little? haha

[CharlzO]

Cost should still be $49.99 at reg stores too, not just franchises (I've worked both, trust me), just to clear up on Outlaws post (We all have our long nites of typing-terrors ;) ). Also, supplies right now are VERY limited, and the official launch for them isn't until the END of this month, so we're seeing the beginning trickles right now. But for those who have their hands on them...life is grand, is it not?

Hi,

depending on the picture above, this is how my custom made supra will look like, when I get mine and when I will be finished.

have fun...

[CharlzO]

Tried out the Ni-MH batteries today, took em off the charger and straight to the car. From what I can tell, without a timer or anything, the alkalines have a tiny edge, at least in kitchen auto-cross *lol*. But, you spend 3 bucks a set to replace, as opposed to the rechargables. I definately love it, and with a re-charge time of two hours, that ain't too awful bad. I notice the mini-mag mentions in a little part that they might have the edge in performance under certain conditions...wonder what they are. just for the record. I'm also going to put a test on the Vette, and the X-mod soon to see what kinda speed adv. we have. I'll keep in touch.

[viperkilla]

Wow! Joe_Cool, if you can pull that off, I bet that will be one of the best mods! Howd you get the picture like that? Did you use photoshop or something?

[herman]

hmm... are these things fully proportional??? i may have missed it... but are there any reviews on it???

[frozenPHOENIX]

it looks like he did use photo shop, because if u look at the wheels, the spokes are the same and u can see the brakes behind them. thnx to my unusually large brain, i was able to make that distinction. lol
