What is up with the 1/18 Komet?? Skyworks wanted a fortune for even a kit, then brought them down to $150, now there more money again, I heard some company was going to make one..... Does anyone know what is really going on???

Don't really follow Skyworks prices.

So, no help at all.

Someone on this site was going to make one, but then held off due to rumors of impending production. :? I still don't see one.........

i think it's very likely Pegasus will be releasing one. They have something in the works that is due out this year.

and the Gee Bee Z. They had another racer in the works but cancelled it due to a complex paint scheme. They have openly stated they have something else in the works that everyone is going to really like. That plus the rumour of a komet...

That would be cool if Pegasus did a Komet!! I think this came up in a poll at one time or another.
I know I've said a 1:18 Komet with the detail of their V-1 would be an affordable alternative to the one thats on the market now.

I know that a bird on the wall told me NOT TO DO THE KOMET because one was coming.

That was all he could say.

My guess was that Pegasus was the one to make it.

We sahll see.

I hope it gets made !!!!
