You guys are so funny sometimes.

Has anybody from Mugen Seiki Japan ever posted anything in this forum in the past oh, say 3-4 years? How about anybody from Kyosho?

When it comes to communications, IMO, Mugen Seiki Japan has always been at the bottom of the list. Kyosho, XRAY, Serpent* and even Team Magic are all better at communicating information about their products.

My point is, unless you hear it directly from Japan, any rumors - or what dealers do and don't know (or claim they do or don't know), is somewhat irrelevant. I don't quite know what to think when someone says Mugen isn't this or that, or that this product is or isn't coming - unless it's coming from the source. Until I see a picture of an MTX-5 in a magazine, at a toy fair - or in some type of track side spy photo, as far as I'm concerned, an MTX-5 product or prototype doesn't exist.

Does anybody really think that Mugen is going to tell all the dealers that it's going to stop producing 1/10th on-road racing products? Does anybody think that Mugen feels obligated to tell it's dealers that an MTX-5 is or isn't coming?

There is only one guy who posts here that I would ever believe when he says anything about Mugen on-road products. And we all know who that is.

It doesn't really matter. Everyone can having fun speculating. Nothing wrong with that!

* When Serpent moved to Asia doesn't count, as that was about their company, not about specific products.
