To my knowledge neu only agreed to service the medusa motors for medusa, not actually ever manufacture them. Honestly the medusas were not much cheaper than the castle motors were and would probably be much higher priced now as well. Medusa obviously could not make enough profit on them to justify making them which is one of the reasons they got out of the RC market. Those two things coupled together lead me to believe that the bigger medusa motors would be selling for over 200 now as well.

People seem to forget this problem will affect all brushless motors in the end. This isn't just a Castle thing, they have just been the most up front and honest about it.
