Hpi logo already on the hobbies website!
Be a bit odd if hpi Europe follow as that would put Jason deardon under the same company he use to run.

According to our sources the deal is limited to HPI USA and does not relate to HPI EU or Japan.

Correct, but how long till they take up the other divisions.

Always thought Hobbico would be acquiring other brands.. Nitro engines and electrical brand soon..

That's in progress... Kickstarter Deathstar

I hope though that through this partnership we might get to see a 1:10th comp buggy

I wonder how much they want to compete against themselves though? They already own Team Durango.
