Anybody pre-registered and actually going to try and buy one?

I had a Super Tuff, so despite the nostalgia element it's not quite right and I'll be keeping my £500 in my pocket...

Can never understand this sort of thing, what people want is an original, that was around at the time. Without that it's just an expensive, crap [s]piece of art[/s] BMX.

I don't remember them being any good BITD?

Hmm, they did this for the 25th anniversary and I bought one. I had some spare cash, felt nostalgic and thought it might be a good investment.

Sold it a few years later at zero gain, due to ebay/paypal fees. Would have been a small profit otherwise.

I had until yesterday a 25th anniversary Burner.

As you will see in my history I have enjoyed it as a piece or "art" hung on the wall & I also made a profit from it, see [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/ebay-40-watchers-in-an-hour-but-no-bids ]HERE[/url], I'm tempted to buy the new one as I just can't get an original DP freestyler which I had BITD for sensible money, it was a £50 frame when I bought one, the prices now are just mental 🙁
