Yokomo 1/60th
Does anybody know anything about the Yokomo 1/60th? I have seen a video clip and they look really cool. I guess that are proportional too. Think they will come to the states?

they will be released in america. they have an fm radio and should be pretty good, but expensive. the video clip makes it look slow. go to http://www.yokomousa.com to find out more.

Just got one and it is very cool except the manual is not in english so figuring out the charge system is a little trickie. I do hope they make a few other bodies available as the Honda van is not all that much fun to look at.
