Tyco Rampage. New member first post

by V1V45H on 2012-05-04 15:14:36 UTC

Hello i was wondering if anyone could help me. I have recently came across and now own "Tyco Rampage" Rc car 9.6v Turbo for free, boxed with all the bits. (not yet tried and tested but soon will find out) Upon searching the web ive not really come up with any info about it. None are listed on Ebay but i did however stumble upon this forum, I joined and searched for the words Tyco Rampage and noticed it only came up in three posts. Any information about this car would be great. I honestly want to sell it and will be listing it for sell assuming its worth selling ?? Please reply

Many thanks from Jon.

I did notice the lights are missing off the roof. Any info you are able to give would be great.
Do people collect this model ?
Is it worth selling ?

Obviously i need to get a battery for the controller to test it out. There is a battery in the car, Car switches on and red light comes on. also has a plug in wall charger....

looks to be a scorcher chassis with an eliminator body on it kinda.  not sure on its value since we didnt get em here.  hang on to it, definately an oddball.

stussels your spot on if your gonna put it on ebay in the uk it can be hit or miss somtimes tycos sell pretty good other times they will go pretty low what frequency isit

Hi its a 27MHz 1/14th scale...


by V1V45H on 2012-05-05 11:56:26 UTC

Any info regarding how rare this is ? Can anyone give a rough price guide as to what it may be worth ? Its probably not something i would hang onto myself as i would rather it go to someone who will appreciate it more than me.......


by djdarkforces on 2012-05-05 14:48:06 UTC

well its abit more rare than the scorcher if you sell it on ebay a bad day you most probs get about £25 on a good day about £35 due to condition


by V1V45H on 2012-05-05 15:23:20 UTC

Ok thank you for your help. I might stick it up for auction for a giggle, I already have a Tamiya TT01 on Ebay.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261004017960?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 UK Bidders only though.

That thing is pretty sweet looking Im not sure if Uk has a big market like we do.
you can also set special shipping options on ebay. you can ship to USA for an extra shipping fee.


by V1V45H on 2012-05-06 07:32:57 UTC

The thing is we can't get lucky charms here in the UK so i might swap it for 20 boxes of that.... *Jokes...... Ok but the shipping cost may be just as much as someone is willing to pay for the car itself. 


by stan on 2012-05-07 17:07:16 UTC

you might get lucky. like the one car that went for like $1200 not even with a box

I kinda want it meself. thinking about selling my Revo now

by friedchickenfuelsme on 2012-10-10 19:13:53 UTC

I guess if someone wants it that bad they would pay it but its been listed a bunch so doesn't look like anyone wants it that bad  ;D


by djdarkforces on 2012-10-10 19:58:59 UTC
