Title: Tyco Recoil?
Post by: nixzero on April 22, 2012, 23:54:52
Anyone heard of the Tyco Recoil?  I'm convinced it doesn't exist, my only proof for it is that it was one of the cars in the "Tyco RC: Assault with a Battery" videogame and I found some Yahoo question from a guy looking for it's remote.  From the game screenshot, it looks like a normal truck, but the Yahoo question described it similarly to a Rebound.  Can anyone confirm or deny that it was made?  Thanks!

One of our members sold one on eBay a while back.

Tyco Recoil Truck, it has what looks like an Eliminator-like body and has fixed axles (front dont turn side to side, more like the Rebound).

Aw, man!  Too bad I just found the forum!  Oh well.  It's totally driving me nuts that the only picture I have of this vehicle is a pixelated PSX screenshot.  At least I know it was actually produced, now.  One more toy to add to my wish list!  ;D
