Centro C4.1 - B4.1 £190 + £160 for the conversion
Vega - donor (RB5,TRF201,B4.1) price £190-£279 + £210 for the conversion
DB01 - Lazer £399 + RB5 £279 + £200 for the conversion

People have happly payed for for the above cars so i don't see where the arguement is comming from??

Your missing the point mate - the conversions don't come into the equation as generally they are made by small specialist companies with significant costs in getting the product to market. Also - it's kind of like buying 2 kits.

Conversion sales will probably slow down - with the release of so many new kits that meet the needs / gaps in the market that the conversions filled...

Kyosho is a MAJOR player in the hobby market - so it's of concern that the pricing is so high when it's just one car - from one manufacturer - in one box.
