Team Blue star shock set

[theant]

Hey guys

I have done the search on these shocks and have seen mixed reviews from past posts on RCNT and have seen nothing but bad reviews on other forums, (bent shafts, leaking etc.). I was just wondering if anyone has used these recently and if so, have you noticed any issues...maybe they have improved the quality of their shocks?

I found these on ebay:

Would the Traxxas Bigbores STILL be a better option? The Blue stars look awesome, but in other forums, that looks to be all that is good about them.

Looked at those but didn't see any parts support for them.
By the time you add $ + S&H you might as well get some Big Bores that parts can had at any LHS.
Or go with a UE supershock 4 shock set up. Runs about $115 for towers and shocks.

Yeah, true enough, it would be nice to be able to fix em if I need to!
