i was worried i would never see this because of all the legal problems that happened around the LB 458 autoart was going to release... but thank god it arrived yesterday in one piece with only one minor issue, because rumor has it GT Spirit rushed this out the door before lamborghini corporate sharks could come, so some have arrived broken or have some sort of defect

If you can't find selection on eBay you're not trying lol... Good prices are another story, nobody has good prices since our dollar tanked so bad, but the selection should be pretty much every Kyosho ever made!

I pre-ordered mine back a few months ago when they first announced it. The blue one is pretty much sold out even on ebay, only the white one left.
