Have had a brand new Serpent Cobra 2.0 e-buggy sitting on the shelf for three weeks sans electronics. Got sick of waiting, so bought a gently used gen one RX8 off of ebay for $199 last night (he said he used it two times). Also bought the 1900 T8 from Tower Hobbies for $134 with my discount. Sure it costs more than a combo, but don't really feel like missing the entire summer season waiting for something that could possibly be another month or two out.
