Price Reductions on HPI Venture FJ Cruiser RTR
 

RPP has announced price drops from $399.99 to $349.99 on the HPI Venture FJ RTRs! This is awesome news and it's still an uphill battle, but I hope this helps the truck build some sales that it deserves.

For a comparison, the Venture RTR is now priced $20 less than the Axial SCX10 II Cherokee RTR and just $20 more than the Axial Cherokee kit!

Going to be a tough one for me now..... Was going to eventually pick one up. Was actually going to wait for the builder's kit, but the FJ body is something I don't have yet...

Here is the body in stock "thumbsup"

Sweet! Thanks. No I just need to find the other bits for the body. I'll wait until the builder's kit is in stock though.

On another note... I'm really close to pulling the trigger on a SCX10.2 builder's kit right now.

I just got mine Wednesday from Amain hobbies at that price (349.99). Been waiting for them to go on sale. It's a pretty nice truck, but I think I like my SCX10.2 just a little better. For the price though you can't go wrong!

Why do you like your SCX10 II better?

Re: Price Reductions on HPI Venture FJ Cruiser RTR
 

Amain has dropped the price aswell

Prolly because I’m more familiar with it... it seems just a scoshe bigger too. But, to be fair, I don’t have much time with the Venture yet. Been replacing electronics (1080 SC, steering servo, and a new FS-GT3C) before I take it out to get really dirty. I really like the drivetrain better than my 10.2, and after pulling the trans and transfer case apart, I gotta say those gears are BEEFY!

This is great news. But as a kit kinda guy I'm gonna be patient. As long as I don't have to be patient for a year or longer...

Have a look on Ebay if you're after the builders kit, they dont have them but there is a guy parting out Ventures and selling rollers for around $200

EDIT: scratch that price point they've seen the price HPI will be asking and have raised theirs too.

I saw that too and I don't get it because the builders kit has several upgrades so the price would be more acceptable where it was.
