i just got one of the ones in the pic and damn they're low! and there's heaps of room under the shell for some interesting electronics to cram into!

definately worth the bills

JDM....how much are the Vdub bus bodies going for?

Betty K....since you already have a set, how does it run? Its been hit or miss with those perfection clones as far as range is concerned. Some have given me ok range....but I have gotten two that won't run unless I have the controller within two feet of the car.

Yeah...I thought some of those bus bodies looked low in the pics. Then again, the front ends look a bit high in other pics. How low is it?

I just ordered a set of those along with the Tomy Limited Skyline BitcharG set at the Groupbuy thats going on at Tinyrc. I cant wait to get them.

Thanx Pimp! I got so much 5hit in Da Body Shop now, I can wait to get these. And you know as soon as I order them, they're gonna bring out some NEW shit

the quality is typical of the super perfection range, i know what i'm getting into when buying them. but it's smooth surfaces only for this lowrider!

i just got my bus in today. its reall cool and low as hell, the range started to sputter at about 5 feet away, guess that i will need to check that out and do some moddin for better range, but i mainly bought it for the shells, i dont understand why they put windows on the side doors, the original bus did not have windows on the side doors alone, i will have to paint over the windows, it just looks stupid, what are the three sets of tires that come in the package, are they differant like soft medium and hard, which is which, are they just colored diff.

Jmays...

I haven't had great luck with the range on the three Perfection clones I have bought. One was ok, the rest were really bad. I think I was spoiled by my first clone, which was a Shen....those things get kick ass range, relatively speaking. My Zip Zap SE's get great range too. I like the Perfections for their shell's though. I also don't care for the different colored tires.....why don't they just offer black tires???

BTW....I think they must have meant these buses to be panel van style with windows on the doors only. I thought it was strange that they did it that way as well. But, I came across this photo of a bus without all of the windows. It even has the light on top like the white and green Perfection VW Bus.
