No worries here about replacement parts - as long as Tower is selling the unit they will have the parts. Now this may take a few months but if its anything like the Firehammer they will have a bunch of parts at good prices. Heck even my LHS might carry some. I like the looks of the Buggy and hope it handles better than my current kits.

everything needs to be put intp perspective , you guys in the u.k. and europe period have everything largescale. but not so in you're comparisons for the u.s. market. thats why H.p.i. in the u.s. will be a major boost here. I'd love to have those large scale tracks in europe.

Yal will have to let us know how they work. I will buy them if everything works fine and has no problems.

Here's a short video of the Baja 5B in action from today.

That video clip will only last for 7 days on yousendit.com but we'll be adding some videos to the HPI site soon.

Great video. I can't wait to put 40 series paddle tires on and go to the dunes.

Any way to put me closer to the top of the list?

The list is at Tower Hobbies, and you never know where you are at. If you ordered it before they chagned the price to 914, you are probably in the first shipment.

I'm so tempted now to put in a order for that HPI, it moves real good and looks really nice and different to other buggy's.
I really nice Video of the baja.... sooo tempting..

..hmmm:
Buy a fully aluminum equipped buggy of a known brand..
Buy that 4wd buggy we all seen..
Or get that new HPI....

Lot's of questions going around, but for sure this Baja have got my attention now

I'm not in any hurry anyways... maybe i just wait and see 2-3month's and see how this HPI turns out, like i have already cars that needs money anyways
