Michael at www.fgperformance.com has great deals on all his stuff. He sells the MB shipped for $1021.00 and the MT shipped with the alloy gear conversion for $1089.00. He might give you a better deal if you are buying 3. Definitely give him a call and see what he will give you for a deal.

Don't know much about Molzer/Mowery except that their website suc-ks hardcore. Poorly made and hard to navigate. Stuff should be intuitive, not pi-ss you off trying to use it.

I buy from www.fgperformance.com or www.vsmodelsport.com

Has great experiences and good prices. Michael at FGP is great and has a really great business ettiquette.

Thank you all for the input, I purchased the 2 MT's and 1 MB from RC Nut's Hobbies for 1,000 shipped each on the MT and 925 shipped on the MB. Great price!!! and service. I appreciate all the offers from all the dealers that responded, but this was the lowest price with shipping. Thanks again!

Either that or he got one for his wife, 2 kids and his own! Where else but in Florida would you find someone getting 3-4 MT/MB's. I know now. Since he is in Ft. Lauderdale, he will be hooking up some spy camera's and when spring break comes around, he will be driving them up and down the beach trying to get some [sm=surprised.gif] pictures or video.

I bought 2 FGs at the same time. But one on-road and one off-road.

Love them both.

Oh boy, looks like I opened up a can of worms....I manufacture high end r/c boats (73" gas powered vhulls) and thought the large scale buggies would look great on the shelf. I want to try them out before I try to become a dealer. I used to be a Bergonzoni dealer in the past. I'll probably use one or two and sell the others to friends. I'd liike to get a lot of people interested in them and see what happens...
Daytona...no wife or kids....just toys

If you're thinking about starting up a shop and/or getting people interested in large scale I would've got a initial wider range...rather all of the same type MB/MT so not much choice..why not a Marder Race and Stadium Truck?

Hey dude if your looking for a great deal call or e-mail Mike at [email protected] This guy is great. He is putting a FG Monster Beetle together for me- everything (radio gear, brakes) and some little extras. I had ordered from Black Hawk Hobbies in Lousiana - DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY THEY WILL TRY TO RIP YOU OFF - BLACK HAWK HOBBIES SUCKS. They charged my visa and i waited 2 months to get it and never did. He gave me the run around everytime i called him. I am having my credit card merchant go after him right now. Damn mess. Should had went with Mike from RC Nutts Hobbies all along. Live and learn. Pass the word about BLACK HAWK - taking people for a ride. Stick with Mike.

No offense NeoMB, but it sounds like you're a spammer, perhaps a employee at rcnutshobbies.com...and maybe Black Hawk Hobbies is a direct competitor?

Since you joined and posted the exact same message twice.

I wouldn't think so because IMO a great deal of Mikes bussiness comes from the board and I have never heard anything about Blackhawk hobbies on this board. If RCNuts was to go after anyone it would be FGPerformance or FGHop-ups whom I have heard mentioned many times as have you durring the (Hellya vs Mad Wax) controversy. Is it the UK way to be so cynical or did you miss a few hugs when you were a "wee lad"? And BTW; No offense!

Yeah I'm cynical/suspicious of new members saying "xxx are great!" on their first post. That sort of thing happens on other forums, and you learn to spot "sales talk" Dunno what rep. Blackawk or rcnutshobbies.com. Course NeoMB could be authentic, but I certainly would take a regular member's opinon/experience over a new member. Even then long standing members could have a agenda too, again usually spot their routine.

Mad wax,

Number one, neoMB is not an employee of mine, he is a customer.

Number two, do not go and accuse me of bashing my competition. I would not do that and don't believe any of the other dealers would either and it is just plain unprofessional. You come on today and have insulted two dealers and give your cynical opinions on what new comers say and you have only been a member for 3 weeks and have put your opinion on almost every thread. If you want to bash people or insult people, I recommend you go somewhere else. This board is for useful information, not immature smart ***** remarks. Do you even own a large scale car or truck?

If you are going to post on a thread post something useful and stop wasting everyone's time.
