Kyosho was always made in Japan. That was the main reason I liked them so much. I haven't bought a new Kyosho in a few years, so I hope the Legendary stuff is still made in Japan, because I am going to be buying another Turbo Scorpion soon.

Well, this is a screenshot from an unboxing vid of the USA-1. This is pretty sad.

Sorta off-topic of this discussion, but the Kyosho Turbo Scorpion came back in stock at Tower Hobbies. Also, at Kyosho America, the Tomahawk and regular Scorpion came back in stock. All of these Lengendary series are killer car kits if anyone is looking for something really fun to build. If...

I will be calling you out of the blue, whatever time of day or night if I see them come in stock. But only after I have mine ordered 😜

I think I posted this in another thread, but Kyosho America confirmed a small shipment arrived in the US, but they couldn't sell them on their site and they told me to look for them in hobby shops 🤔 Another shipment is due this month. There has been delays at the ports, but it looks like they...

39 is plenty fast for me. It's meant to be a scale monster truck. Not a regular basher.

I think they changed the axles. Not sure about that though.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It may just be coming out later.

Yeah, it does. It is pretty much just a Mad Crusher with different wheels and body. I wish I could have gotten the Mad Crusher, but it came out during a time I was broke and away from the hobby.

The USA-1 just quietly showed up on Tower Hobbies and Horizon hobbies as a pre-order item. It wasn't there yesterday unless I just missed it. They even told me a few days ago they didn't know if they were going to sell it. So I guess I am going to give it a shot. I went to Kyosho and downloaded...

Kyosho got bought again this year by a company called Surugaya. Not sure what that does for the future of Kyosho, but one of the reports from the new owner sounds promising. But this was back in March where they claimed they were going to improve availability and sales. Since then just about...

I like the fact that it looks the part of a monster truck, and it's 1:8 scale. My only dilemma when it does come out will be nitro or electric. But the fact that there is an optional 4-wheel steering upgrade for it means I will probably go electric. Maybe I will just get both and hope for a 1:8...

I have been checking every now and then for any more news on the re-release of the USA-1, and so far all has been pretty quiet. I contacted Tower Hobbies to see if they were going to be carrying it, and they said they don't know. Has anyone else heard any news?
