Hey guys!

Well, there's some good news, well actually 2 pieces of good news!
First of all, I'm back! I've stayed in touch with Maxximum Attack and he told me that you guys are still around. So here I am and I hope to stay!

The other news,
I've looked around a bit and couldn't find any topics about this, so...
Not sure how many of you are into Xmods still. But RS is bringing a new line coming out this September.
It actually seems as if there are 2 lines:
"Xmods Classic"
and "Xmods Micro, a ZipZaps Innovation"

The 3 of the 4 first body styles that we'll see in stores are a 09 Nissan GT-R, 08 Chevy Corvette, and Mustang of some type?

Well it would be interesting if some new micro cars come out, but I wouldn't put anything on it. This is official news though, from RadioShack. If your local store's manager read July 3rd's newsletter, they would have seen this.

Thanks and hope to see ya around!

Yeah I've read on other xmod sites that they are bringing them back, but I didn't know what bodies or that zip zaps were too! I'm really excited for that. It must be propo if it is called "Xmod Micros". A zip zaps innovation probably just refers to the size.

If they are propo that could really rejuvinate the micro craze...unless they make them too expensive. It should be interesting. :cool:

Man those sound cool. I really hope they release them, or something similar. I have been waiting to something like this!

So there's going to be a new ZZ-SE? Maybe one that doesn't suck? :eek:

Wonder what 'Xmod Classic' means.

Yeah! Should be real interesting!

I'm thinking the Xmods Classic will be another Evo chassis (lol) or a new 1:28th scale chassis.
Xmods Micro sounds like a smaller one, kinda like what they did with the Mini-Z LIT but maybe smaller with the "ZipZaps innovation"

They better be full propo!

Info:
Xmods Micro is another name for ZipZaps. They are 1:64th scale, no word on Propo but I'd say not. Perhaps a revival of the old scales but I'm not sure how much sales these will get.
Xmods Classic: Same Evolution old chassis, new bodies. upgrades are the same as the old line.

Thanks... I'll definitely have to go for the Vettes, both of them. And when they hit the clearance phase I'll have to hoard all of them. :-o

They've been in our Rat Shack's for about two weeks now...there's already a sale on the GTR and the Vette.



























OK, I'm lying...but it was fun. :-)
