I was just wondering if you "guys" had a good place to order bodies for cheap?
I just bought a used Yokomo so I am looking for a new skin to make'er purty.
thanks :)

i would say try an online hobby shop such as towerhobbies, they are less expensive than a lhs unless they match prices.

I think he means cheap as in much-discounted. I've known Q for a while now and I've seen a number of shells that he painted, so he probably has a big list of online shops.
I remember a while back one of the online stores (I'm thinking maybe it was Stormer Hobbies) had a bunch of closeout bodies that I think were "seconds," ie, minor flaws. They sold out pretty fast once the gang around here found out about the stash. Though it seems some of the guys bought them for practice bodies, I saw pictures of them and I know that I for one have bought bodies that were of less quality than those and I paid full price for them. I'd love to find a deal like that now that I have an airbrush.
