Don't think they do bluebird stuff though.
Does anyone have any recommended alternatives (futaba or hitec) or is the bluebird stuff so good I should park it and wait???

I would totally recommend Futaba.
Hitec and Bluebird are two servo brands that I definitely would NOT recommend as I have seen problems with both first hand in terms of quality, fit and performance.
Also Tamiya do not supply servo horns for Hitec so that may cause hassle, you might have to bodge something together with Hitecs own part.
Unfortunately Futaba do not make a fast, mid-priced servo (eg £35 ish), you need to go towards £70 to get a fast Futaba new. My cars either have Futaba 3003 (£8) or 9451/9550 (£70) in them!
However you will notice that the other top-top servo brands, KO and Sanwa, don't make fast mid-priced servos either. There is probably a reason for this...
