New Hobbico Releases
 

Hobbico will soon be releasing Sport Series RTR MicroSizers. They will include a 1.6, and one of six colored transparent S2000 bodies. They will retail for around $20. Also coming soon is the Auto Modellista Set (in both 27MHz and 49MHz versions). Expected arrival date is late Feb. :cool:

finally, but those things are going to be hard to get ahold of around here, especially when the only good place to buy microsizers is at a mall.....

Well, like all MicroSizers products, you'll be able to find them here at the Shop!

the Auto Modellista what are they actually aren't they a boosting system type car?

Auto Modellista...I Hope Hobbico is allowed 2-speed! http://www.toyeast.com/productimage/AC0069a.jpg

SWEEEEEEETTT so they are boosting dang i can't wait i'm gonna get one i was gonna get a fairlady from ebay but my friend doesn't have any money on paypal:( so not i just gotta wait till the end of feb i can do that... hopefully

Uhhh.....cool? :)

These are just chassis sets with no controller, right?

i think your thinking about the tomy booster sets those come without a controller. The Auto Modellista set is based on the video game it comes with a regular set with four bodies (yellow supra, blue rx-7, red r32, black r34)

oh yeah my personal opinion about the release date of the Auto Modellista set is they should wait for March because thats when the game gets release here in the states and it would cause more hype for both the game and the Microsizer set

yo tiny do u know what freq the A.M.'s are gonna be released in are they gonna be at 27?

VuN86 in the first post it say the Auto Modellista will be in both 49 and 27 thats just wicked now isnt it

o oops hehe i must have been reading to fast but yeah thats gonna be freaking awesome i can't wait. i was gonna get a fairlady but psssshhhh forget that i'm not gonna pay $45 for that, a 3.0 motor, and a tire set off ebay

I want booster!
 

I want Booster!

has anyone seen any good reviews on the auto modellista game?
if so where? and what type of racing game is it?(street,strip,track)

THx for the info!

i heard it was a short game

Micorsizers Sport at Target!
 

I saw a few of those new kits at my local Target. The price is $19.99. The box is a little smaller than the regular microsizer kit and the controller is hidden from view (sorry, no pics at this time).

well there aren't any reviews really becuase it isn't out in America until March and the type of racing game is like Gran Turismo but they said the tuning is better (custom paint jobs, decals) and the graphics i like em but probably some people dont its cell shaded like Sly Cooper

whats system is Auto Modellista for???and where can u get it..it sounds really nice

Hey benjun!!!!
 

What aisle were they in at your Target store?

I know at my local Target stores that the RC sections are now VERY SMALL; located in the diecast car aisle.

Just wondering if my Targets will get any at all.

Same place as before
 

You're right, it's a small section. I was surprized to see them there at all. Usually there's a small space between bigger R/C toys where the microsizers would be. This time they were there.

i have never seen a MS at target.. probably because i got into them in december, and u no, the xmas rush and stuff.

Auto Modellista is for Playstation 2 and right now you can only get it imported if you live in the states because it comes out in March

it's also going to be playable online if you have the modem hook up for ur ps2. I love the cell graphics

i picked up a ms sport yesrerday at my local super target for 20 bucks. The only thing i have to compare it to is my bensu clone and wow what a difference. I stuck my 2.6 and blk heat sink from my kit racers and the thing flies. It will run circles around my zz turboed rare earth full sized wheel bensu all day. Very good quality. My only complaint is the stupid clear body. But i quess its time i try out my painting skills.

in the april 2002 issue of OPM there is a small PREVIEW of it with only a couple of screenshots. they didn't give out very much info except that they saw the game in motion and said it looked good.
in the screenshots the cars look very cartoonish.

wait u got a ms sport???? i thought they come out in late feb isn't that what tiny said? did the release them earlier then planned?
