Blizzards I am borderline obsessed with kyosho blizzards (the older ones anyways) I just wish they were a little easier to find! I was bored tonight so I took some pics of mine real quick. This was my first RC ever, given to me by my late grandfather about 14 or 15 years ago. It's the Kyosho Heavy metal van"thumbsup" http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...n-ktm/BHM2.jpg I just need to find a way to fix it:x http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...n-ktm/BHM1.jpg I scored this off ebay last year. It's a Blizzard DX with the plow http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1.../blizzdxp1.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1.../blizzdxp2.jpg This is another DX without a plow or a body. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...m/blizzfs1.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...m/blizzfs2.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...m/blizzfs3.jpg Luckily I found an unpainted DX body with all the lights, exhaust and other plastic pieces"thumbsup" http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1.../blizzbody.jpg This is another Heavy metal that a member here helped me get! (thanks again Shaun (Yota)!!!!!) http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...n-ktm/NHM1.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...n-ktm/NHM2.jpg I also have a few of the newer releases. I'm just not as much of a fan of those ones. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...tm/blizzev.jpg And this has to be one of my most prized rc possessions, A complete NIB Heavy metal van"thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup" Don't come across these to often8) http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...ktm/nibHM1.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...ktm/nibMH2.jpg Anyone else here have any original Blizzards or Heavy metals? |
very neat, i almost bought one. Try http://www.making-trax.com/ That website is pretty dead but has great posts |
the new models look pretty fun for the price, nice collection by the way |
The new ones are defiantly fun, and a bit more reliable! I just like the older ones for nostalgic reasons:lol: |
i had the nitro version of this it was fun but a real pain to put together |
One of those van bodies is just screaming for an A Team paint job.... |

Is it still possible to get newer ones someplace other than Ebay? Because I have been wanting one of these things real bad for about 2 years and could never find someplace that sold them... Anyone know of someplace that does? |

I just ordered one last week from: http://www.ultimatehobbies.com/istar...KYO30983B!1012 It should be here monday or tuesday |
I have 2 Blizzards, the newer electric and the nitro. The nitro is ALOT cooler than the others to me, it will crawl and it will haul ass!! When it lunges from hitting second gear, hell yea!! |
I'm thinking i will put a brushless motor in my after i get it. Not sure yet but i'm thinking about 4600 mamba max combo |

My bad I thought I got it from there, but actually got it from Ultimate hobbies. The one I got is different than the one they have now though |

Definitely cool. I can't believe I don't have one here in Michigan :? |
