... my guess, they have parts inventory and think that these 1/12 TCs will make at least make money. (they already have the molds and distribition network.)

AHH, but it is good buisness... These aren't upstarts putting all of their eggs in one basket for hopes of sucess.... They have been around for years and have the money to spare... besides if they enter into developement of a new product and it actually causes a loss in profits that loss can be written off on their taxes!!!! So they simply cannot loose, it really isn't that big of a gamble and these two companies are banking on a world market, not just a local one!!

so far Yok and Xray didn't have to put much effort in taking a existing 1/10TC down to 12th scale

other Companies may be watching....thinking

all the TC3, Barracuda, Yok SD, Tamiya cars need are shorter chassis, shaft, a-arms and your done.

bodies will follow
