I'm old school. I just cant get on board with this tiny, chinese toy crap. They aren't even kits. It's so painfully obvious the reason the industry loves shilling these is because they're purely profit based. The margins are huge. You guys paying upwards of $150 for $12 of chinese electronics and plastic. Its crazy. These companies are making a killing. Just look at the complex Amain Hobbies has built, literally a multi million dollar facility. The value just isnt here for me. In the 80's we wouldve bought stuflike this.at radio shack for under $35 and given to a child. I'm Gen X pushing 50, maybe I'm built different but its impossible for me to understand how full grown men find interest in this stuff. Anyway, you asked for opinions, this is mine. I just dont understand the allure. I'll continue to build mine. 1/12th scale pan cars are where I draw the line.
