Well, the Showtime 50 now cost more than the Showtime 90 did new and the Showtime 90 is almost twice as big as the 50, I have owned both a Showtime 50 and a Showtime 90, the 90 is twice the bird....so...they raised the price of the Showtime 50 over $100, Showtime 90 was $199, the Showtime 50 is now $259 and I guess the Showtime 90 would have to be $399 or so to keep up with the new price increases.
The same thing happened with the Funtana X 100, the Funtana X 50 was raised to more than the X100 cost, so basically you are paying more for a plane that is half the size of the original Showtime 90 and Funtana X 100 and the big versions are discontinued. So, pay more money for less product....
