Default Old Frosty Bases

Anyone have any comments on the "Old Frosty" bases Miggle is currently selling?

Just wondering if anyone wishes to comment on them, their tweakability, their performance, etc...

I was itching for some new bases and those are about the only ones I have not bought from Miggle.

Any feedback?

Exclamation

The New Frostoes that miggle makes now ARE CRAPPY, they used a different plastic than the old frosties and it is too brittle.
Good thing I have a boat load of old Frosties.

Default Boil Them

The frosty bases are excellent for boiling. They are brittle because enough silicon wasn't used during the manufacturing process. If you boil them, the base will get the oil that it needs to become soft. I know that base boiling is taboo in this hobby. It is forbidden. I like it.

Default NOS Frosty's

Shabby,
I don't know everything ,but I know something! The Old new Frosty's are good. They require a staedy hand and some patience,but all of my speedsters are on the TTC'c and Double clip frosty's! I've had a lot of success with them. I aslo like the blue TTC's and the proline straight front's for speed! They work for me!

I agree Tron, I tweaked a few frosty rookies lately that are pretty darned fast.
