Between the two
I would go Mugen..I am
The Kyosho you would still need to put in some $$ to get it better
The Mugen I would go with the Prospec kit.
Mugen took the time with all the truggies out there before they released the prospec. Mugen parts cost less over Kyosho parts.
The Mugen prospec---you don't need to do anything.
There are some guys that will tell you what you need to the Kyosho to bring it up a bit better.
I know of no RTR for either of these two.
Now to throw a wrench into this
The Losi 8 Truggy is due to come out later this year.
Alot of ppl are looking at that one based of the prototype.
Thing is is the $$$---what are they going to sell them for.
I base this of what my mentor LANCE has said to me---he too would take Mugen over Kyosho. He Prefers the Losi 8 truggy but if the price is right.
You can get a new Mugen MBX5T prospec for about $565 shipped the cheapest I have found and for this month only.
If you do go with Kyosho over the Mugen---look for it used to make it worth it and with the upgrades---look on ebay.
I saw one sell for $450 shipped with parts and an unpainted shell.
