I had ask a model shop to help me to order this kit (the first version) but the shop keeper said that Kyosho dealer wouldn't import it because at least one box (12 to 20 kits) should be ordered from the factory.
Kyosho EP RC car, forget it even it is a very good RC car. very very poor spare parts support in HK and we do know the reasons why. better buy the ABC M car.
In fact, most of the spare parts of Kyosho kits (even the kit is not available in HK) can be ordered through local RC model shop. Most people think that their support is not good because they don't have long-term relationship with model shop and don't konw how to order Kyosho spare parts.
In my own experience, usually the parts I ordered would be delivered to the hobby shop a few days later by the Kyosho dealer.
I just want to say that no shop would keep stock of all spare parts for you. Particularly the kits are not popular.
Yes, just want to get more info on this latest product if a better choice than original ABC or Tamiya M serious. A bit bored about Tamiya's EP plastic centric product lines just it somehow offering more retail channels on parts than others. And also glad to hear some side tracked opinions.
The main issue on purchasing this kyosho r246 version of gambado already pointed out from u. That is local store not keen on order this model. All we can do is order online. I am also consider to purchase this r246 as well, the best price I can find in Japan store is around hkd1200-1300 with shipping. If u are not care about the Honda type reality body shell, I still think this r246 is also a good choice since it comes with the graphite chassis.
