Thanks for sharing that with the rest of the community. Hopefully, that wasn't the reason I was outbid.

I doubt the sharing really attracted that much more attention.
It seems like once an item gets discontinued everyone is frantic over it and are searching for it at the same time.
Ebay usually is the first place people look.
And prices are probably going to be gouging with all the "I need that" out there. Happens with every item.

RCCARKINGS.NET has some Pro-Line Bug bodies still. Also discontinued but seem to be lesser known than the HPI Bug, so still available. Anybody used one for a crawler before?

Hello all, I have been searching for my bug body as well. I just ran across 5 of the Parma Bug Bodies at a reasonable price. rcmaxpower has them on eBay ranging from $19.99 to $23.99

I really wanted the HPI version, but at this point I will snatch up any version.... Hope this helps some of you.

This bug body just might work for me. Does anybody know what scale it is. I guess I have to do some more research to see if it will work.
