One thing they don't need is duplicate the styles the other brands are using. You can already get those styles. I'm looking forward to them coming out with more American cars. Caddy's, Dooley's, ZZtop roadsters(this should be a must), Camaro's, Corvettes, Hummers, Tahoe's, etc... That's what they need to be working on. The kid kits are fine, just as long as they don't forget about the dads. And another thing: ZZ's have more realistic body designs. Ms's and Bits are more cartoonish.

ya, ZZ's have the best design out of all the RC cars, more realistic, and i think just overall better. but all this trash is ruining it. the only car we know about is a beetle and i think someone said that's coming out like january or something, and all you have to look forward to now are a PC game and spongebob, and no one in their right mind would even give a crap about them. i wanna see new,good lookin cars, and im sure everyone else would agree.

I think that getting Licenses for the cars may be what is holding things up. I hope that's the reason cause I can't wait to get my hands on a caddy.

You can't fault them for going after more then one age group. Yes the Spongebob and other kits are not for everyone, but I know my son would absolutely love one. Personally, I think spongebob is a crackup.

Now that these things are taking off in the United States, I think you're going to see a lot of companies open up selling aftermarket accesories. Those who made the right custom body kits could easily make a small fortune. If I had the know how, I'd have a website tomorrow. If anyone out there knows how, I've got the capitol.

A friend of mine spoke of a process where you carve a body with clay, poor a special mold around it and then bake it to burn out the clay. This, he said, would give me the mold one would need to make a custom car body. Anyone familiar with this? He didn't go into much detail.

In the meantime, if you don't mind a little Dremel work, you can get Porsches and Hummers at Big Lots CHEAP. The Darda Speed Racer fits too. See my posts on these topics elsewhere in the forum.

Stridex i have the means to make bodies through molders who are close to me. however the capitol i do not have as molds can be super costly!!!!!!!!!!

email me if you wanna be shocked on the price of a typical mold that might make 4 different ZZ or bit bodies at a time.

Email is here for those interested.

It's a free pc game fyi

Of course they aren't gonna make you pay for it, it's radioshack were talking about here, they just use this game for advertising, not to make a profit (well in the long run they do). Go to www.shockrave.com to go play it, frankly i thought it was kind of bs though.
