Guide blade query.

Will the new "heavier" duty guide blades that came in the new release micro bond set (DB5 v Aston V8) be sold separately?


I ask as I have micro scalextric products all new (post 2019) and I noticed a couple of things.

Checking the spare guide blades in the bond set and comparing them to the spares from the Batman v joker and also the wonderwoman car they are less pointed and more flattened. I guess this must because of the new lap counter, as the blade needs to hit it pretty fast and hard to register a lap.

I also found the other 3 cars have a tendency to skip and not cause the counter to move, even with the spares that came with them. For Nana and Grandpa it's not a problem but for my grandaughter and especially my nephews it led to major arguments lolol


I'm hoping that these thicker blades become the norm as the kids love the superhero stuff and my wife has laid claim to the DB5 🤣
