I think it's even more important to learn how to use a freakin period.

no shit. Any how it is to be suspected that after the initial buzz of a new hobby that it will fade at leaste a bit. As for Target stopping thier Bit inventory, I went to my target today and they had tons, (yet $15 for a sport... but they had em) Also, Toys r' us still has a huge surplus and hell, they even made thier own. Honestly I think you are over reacting, but it is true, the micro RC racers are fading out of the spotlight. Then again, can anyone remember when regualr models were advertised on TV? Yet you still see them at every hobby shop. Main suggestion is CHILLLLLL there holms.

Id rather stab myself in the eyes than read your poorly written shit. Honestly go learn some grammar kid, its gonna comes in handy.

I dont see bits going anywhere. I dont care if other people dont like em, or if there mainstream. There always gonna be for sale somehow whether it be in hongkong or jap, hobby stores or ebay. i dont think you need to panic.

that's about the gist of it....

they might have been "faddy" at some point, but they will never just die - they'll always be around

Yeah, they were a fad, now they're not, just the cycle of things.

I kinda prefer things that are not the current fad, but you got to admit it was great when these things were everywhere for cheap.

My hey day was the 5 dolla BigLots clones. They were right up the road, cheap, and worked great. I couldn't stop buying 'em. Now they're gone. (sigh) Them were good times.

There is an upside to the "fad" ending, and it's happening right now. Hue35 went to a couple of Targets and cleaned them out of their $1.08 Microsizer body sets and $1.99 Hop-up Kits. I have a grocery sack of them for $20.00.

Basically all we need to do is snap up stuff while it's cheap and horde for the future.
