Anyone know if these are still around anywhere? I'm looking for a RH orange and/or purple one. Been googling for days. Uhg.

Have you tried Japan Tackle?

Thanks. I have. They have the dragstar on the site but it's out of stock. I believe the specific one I'm looking for is discontinued. ](*,)

Maybe try a WTB thread? These can be hard to come by for a reasonable price. Mine came on a used T3 MX with other purple parts for $70 and threw it on a Fuego CT. Aliexpress sells the long arm stars as genuine SLP parts but they are the ones that use the threaded nut and spring since they don't specify LH or RH. For a short arm threaded star I think the for sale section here is your best bet.

Just went over to try that and realized I don't think I have enough posts. Dang. Thanks for the inputs everyone.
