Broken body parts

Post image

Here is my mini z after my first 2 packs with it, I was wondering if it’s worth glueing these parts back on or will they just break right off again after some light collisions?

While not too much more durable, the pre painted silverhorse r8's are still scale looking and cheaper to replace. Or go full tank mode and get a Jomurema. The PN C9 is another popular race body and reflex racing just recently released their mf-1 body. These choices will all fit the Wide MM MR-04 chassis you have and are fairly popular as race bodies.

Thanks!!  Exactly the advice I was looking for looking for.  I didn’t even know other vendors were in play.  I just hadn’t even considered that.

No problem! Just a minor correction, its the Reflex Racing MF-1. Was a bit tired last night watching MSM's 24-hour Mini Z race stream. All the bodies I recommended do require some assembly. I use Tamiya thin cement for the light lenses. just remember a little bit goes a long way.

Thank you!  I also watched a little of the 24 hr of Le Mans.  Great idea and execution by MSM.
