The M03 mould's have almost worn out, so you get a kit with loads of slop which allows it to work much better.

Not so sure about the moulds being worn out as the polymer Tamiya use is quite soft so I doubt it has any effect on the mould tolerance at all. And aren't the arms the same anyway so they'll be coming out of the same moulds for the M05 too. I just think the M05 main chassis is made to tighter tolerances so everthing is a more "snug" fit. Totally agree on the steering linkage though. All the hard work they put into the chassis is undone by an unbelievably floppy linkage.
