Wink Original Cat re-release - If enough of us want it, it may come!

Would you buy a Cat re-release? Be it an XL/XLS/SWB/ProCat etc etc.

From Robin Schumacher:

Thanks for the feedback Dan,
There are no plans at the moment for any re-release, but if enough people ask then you never know!
Regards
Robin

Come on EVERYONE link from worldwide forums to this poll and let's get a load of 'YES' votes - I will then contact Robin again, we are one step closer!

I have just realised he copied Schumacher development folk on his email also so this may just be more than a pipe dream...

Dan

But how would we all get those essential Model Motor Sport parts that were a must....

I was rather lucky (and so were other fellow Schumacher racers) as the guy who owned MMS came to our club regularly, he often had a few bit's in his pockets for sale.

There were,

Layshafts
Diff's
Some rather nice heat sinks.

They were the good old days..

Well the people who count (i.e. the manufacturer!) are thinking about it which is a good start!

I'm all for this idea, it would be brilliant. Don't forget Schumacher chaps, one vote will often mean more than one car sold.

I voted Procat, but lets be honest - I'd have an XLS too. I'm not sure about the stick pack SWB and XL just in terms of fitting modern cells.

Numbers steadily increasing, I will put the total to him in a week or so, I assume most people would buy the most popular max votes model be it Cat XLS (leading at the moment) or otherwise, if you'd all buy a Cat XLS then we have a total of 80 votes, granted people can vote for more than 1 car though....

Spread the word, keep the votes coming.

Nice thing about rereleases is that there will be spares available again.
So people will also restore there old cars again.

I voted for a SWB Cat , because i got all the NIP parts together for a couple of years now, but still missing a body and undertray.
This one is the hardest to get parts for.

All the others XL/XLS/procat are often for sale , if you want a runner.

I went Boss and Pro Cat as these were the cars I really wanted when I first started racing (with my Tamiya Boomerang at the Astor Theater in Deal)
