Why are we waiting
Can someone please shed any light on what is taking soooooo long to get the 2nd batch of B5m's over here, this isn't a go at our model shops but surely it can't be that hard, it may of helped sending more then 5 over on the first batch

MB are saying by next thursday in their section, i cant see why associated are releasing a conversion kit for the b5 and b5m when you can hardly get parts and there is still many waiting for a kit.
Hopefully that just means a good parts delivery soon .

The second batch has only just started showing up in the good old US of A in the last day or two and many of the bigger retailers, Tower Hobbies, Amain, Superior have laready sold out again of The B5M. Certain parts are still in short supply too, most of the alloy bits especially.
I was talking to Gregg about his B5M on Sunday and he didn't have any spares yet just a B5r to use for parts, but he must have just got an extra kit as Nat ran a new B5M in R4 and final but it was still being built during the day! |

Simple solution carry on using c4.2's use your spares up then switch to the b5m once a ft version comes out and by that time spares will be plenty

I messaged MS about the B5M availability, this is the reply I got today
" There is a slight delay but we are hoping for them to land this time next week. This all depends on how quickly they clear customs." So could be another week yet Although saying that I got a similar reply when they were expected on the 21st. |

First we had the kits but no spares......now we have the spares but no kits
It will be worth the wait tho i reckon |

shall we still wait
I have seen AE releases a couple of new items like:
- New Alu Rear Hubs for B5 & B5M - Associated B5M hard A-arms & brass rear arm mounts ... What do you think is it worth to wait for a factory team edition of the B5M? Have you heard if there is one in the pipeline? Thx |
