"I can neither confirm nor deny..."

That's all we can expect from here on out, and I can't blame Castle. I'm sure they would do things different if they could go back and do over. But they honestly didn't know it would have been delayed so long.

I think nobody is more upset than Joe and the boys at CC, so we need to give them a break.

If any of you guys still talk to Shawn Palmer... you know that his experience at CC with the Mamba 25 and MM have taught him a lesson. His philosophy is to not say anything until the product is done. BUT.... his new company (Schumacher) still does the same thing sometimes... leaking info too early and making everyone wait, without a firm date. But he's not happy when they do that.... cause he's the one stuck dealing with the consumer.

"Right now, the Monster is ready -- all parts in stock to build 2500 pcs. Just no cases. It's a shame too, because we thought that the packing would be the last thing to arrive -- and we've had boxes for almost three weeks now."

Come on guys lets not go off in another direction again. CC will work this out on their own in house so they can keep everything in their court. If it delays the release so be it. This is their problem and they have to finish what they started. Be patient and lets stop being so hard on them. None of us wants to wait, but that is just the nature of the beast. At least they are nearly ready to release 2500 units, which is great for us. From my view at least they will not run out of MMM's within a few days, and everyone who wants one should be able to get their hands on one. I am willing to bet that some of us will buy two of them right off the bat, because we know it will be worth it. Delivery time is nearly here.

Tower Hobbies & most other stores had the Sidewinder ESC on their site for back order about 2 months before it was availiable at stores and yet no-one has even a part number for the new MMM esc. Still might be a while away yet
