For those of you that were wondering, I was able to find everything from the 2005 edition except for ONE part, 31422 (aluminum bevel gear shaft 16T/front) which RainbowTen says is backordered according to HPI. I was able to find another item which RainbowTen didn't have, 31401 (aluminum servo & transponder mount set) from rcMart.com. Honestly after doing all this, I think it'd be MUCH cheaper to just buy the 2005 edition from any of the overseas sources (rc-mushroom, rcMart, RainbowTen, etc). The grand total for all these 2005 parts was around $230 dollars USD! I see why these guys make such a HUGE profit by selling hop-up parts!
