I was in my local Hobby People last week, and they had one on the shelf! Oh, was I tempted!! It was still in the outer cardboard shipping box, and it is in a big, and I mean big box. For that reason, I did not ask them to take it down and open it up. I literally had to drag myself fighting against myself out of that store so I would not buy it. I went back two days later, and it was gone. Someone in the San Fernando Valley has one already! Even though their website still says backordered.
