Seems that the 511 kit is sold out almost for 3 months now in all big stores (RCMART, Dinball, RC model, Mushroom etc).
I've sent an email to ask when it will be back in stock and they said the kit was discontinued. Maybe an updated version wil hit the markets soon

apparently the TRF's are made in a one off production run for team drivers. the drivers have there allocated number of kits from the production and then the rest go on sale to the public.
once they're gone, they're gone |

From the source:
Hello, Yes all of "TRF" series kits are limited edition items. Normally Tamiya only makes this "TRF" kit in one shot or sometimes do a little amount of extras. For example,TRF416X kit got sell out already but Tamiya announced they make it again this month. Sometimes extras are for TRF Team Drivers but they only needs about 20 kits.But Tamiya can't make only 20 kits,need to make a few hundred of kits.Then Tamiya release rests to the market. We have not heard Tamiya will make the TRF511 again so we just need to wait for new "TRF" 4WD buggy. I suppose Tamiya will not do soon because they still had TRF511 recently. And I have heard DB01R is sometimes better,so I think Tamiya will not make 4WD buggy with carbon plate chassis. |

I Doubt the 201 will be limited no. as it's all moulded! They've probably just decided to keep with the TRF numbering convention..
