I imagine as the BaneBots transmission gets better known, the Mabuchis will get used more. It is too much hassle to make a custom gearbox to bring down 4000 rpms (well, depending on what the purpose is, you might not need one) especially when you consider the very lower power output, also most other solutions would be pricey or involve huge sprockets. The BaneBots is cheap, and available in multiple gear ratios, very nice. Personally, I'd be more tempted to use it to make a rotating light out of the LEDs, than to do anything else.
