I've seen this same basic post at two sites now... I tryed to check with our RS but they said they were sold out and didn't expect any more.

today i decided to buy another bumblebee starterkit for extra parts but oddly couldn't find any at the first 2 radioshacks i hit up, they said they were told to pull them off the shelves. the third radioshack i went to still had them on the shelf, so i picked one up and the guy tried to ring it up and it wasn't in the system. his manager came over, looked into their emails and sure enough, an email was sent out on 1/11/08 (today) telling them that the Xmods are defective and to pull them off the shelves and send them back to home office...."the chassis will crack under stress" is the specific problem. i asked if i could buy them anyway, they told me no, they are no longer available for sale...if you guys need extra evo chassis, go pick up a couple if you can.
