Default Team Associated finds a new home

Most people would know that some time ago, Team Associated was bought out by Thunder Tiger, while the companies will be kept seperate in terms of product ranges it was expected that there will be some shakeups around the world. In Australia it is now official that Ace Hobbies are now the official distributor of both Thunder Tiger and now Team Associated.

Stocks should be arriving sometime in early 2006, so expect to see a lot more Associated product around the traps, Experienced racers/ businessmen are behind this deal, so good product support an availability would be expected.

Congratulations to the Ace Hobbies boys.

DONT THINK SO........ While associated have tried to bring the bling, they have completely messed up what BLUE should look like.


I still very much have the Tamiya love

Brad: Does this mean you'll be running a TC4 now instead of an MSX for 06?

NO, im just a messenger.

Tamiya and Toy Traders have been very good to me and i look forward to continuing to help promote their products and other users of these awesome machines. What other manufacturer has won 2 consecutive world titles in electric onroad tourers?

That would be bloody right, I got sick of waiting & got rid of my AE stuff & changed to Serpent. Good luck to Ace & I am sure they will do a much better job than the last mob.
