I think yokomo and associated have been in bed together for a long time. Remember the days when Associated imported the Yokomo 4wd buggy YZ10?
This is just speculation since I don't work for either, but perhaps its a mutual distribution system they have setup, and Yokomo USA is a sub-station of Associated. Alot of American companies have problems selling and distributing product into Japan directly, so if they partner up with each other they may both benifit even though they are in direct competition.
