I had the chance to get up close and personal with a Y3 last weekend at my 
favorite Chicago area hobby shop.  I was impressed with the models overall 
proportions, looks and attention to detail.  I was really impressed with the 
sound.   It definitely throws down the gauntlet at the Tsunami and QSI boyz!

In the spirit of full disclosure, I will not be buying one, but if I was an N&W 
or "Wondering 'Y'" guy, I wouldn't let the wheel issue stop me.   There are 
plenty of modeling opportunities there to address it.  Also in the spirit of 
full disclosure, I will be buying a couple of the SD70's with scale wheels – 
again from my favorite Chicago area hobby shop.
