Default RE: Official HPI Hellfire Thread

ORIGINAL: 1CE

today at a local hobby shop i was told that the hellfire had some sort of problem. Hpi had to fix this problem and whatever they had to fixed jacked the price up to 1,200! no kidding i saw the e-mail straight from hpi. That price is for an rtr. If this price dosent change i highly dought that ne1 will purchase it. Anyone that pre ordered a hellfire from tower got a deal i guess...

The price has gone up for the Hellfire, but the number you mention is the retail price, which is usally much higher than what they acutally do sell for. The MSRP for the savage was 800 for the kit, but it sold for around 399. There were problems in manufacturing, and the most prices for the Hellfire are around 630-650, not 1200
