while you are at it make gears. the nikko gears last unlike the tyco's. but the super fast traxx gears seem real solid.
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: mstana on February 01, 2011, 21:31:07: ah yea, sorry forgot, yea i thought of that to, seems like every other fast traxx i get a low gear is striped, they give it to you in high gear like you wont know....
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: mstana on February 01, 2011, 21:34:34: the landshark comes in red to right? i know i saw pics of someones collection with each in box but i cant find it unless it was somewhere els.... know anyone that has a red one that might let it go?
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: czstycor/c on February 01, 2011, 21:37:50: yup, what were they thinking putting so much stress on that one gear.

that road shredder, i was going to put headlights in, i bet you could trick it out. the head lights are a clear orange so its not hard.

i haven't seen a red one all this past year, i know the collection you are talking about it is on the old forum
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: mstana on February 01, 2011, 21:41:09: yea i dunno, and im pretty sure a hobby shop wont carry anything like that cuz its 3 gears in one.... unless you can maybe fab 3 together somehow
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?

Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: jeffescortlx on February 18, 2011, 13:52:58: I must have: (open to any condition)

Nikko Turbo Panther.
Tyco Hopper
and of course a Bandit.

But would really like just about any Nikko, Tyco, Lobo, Radio Shack from the 80's, trucks or buggies.

Any tip's would be appreciated. I scan ebay and local craigslist regularly.

Does'nt matter if it's working or not, missing controllers are OK, I'd just gut it and put in a real radio, servo and ESC anyways.

Post by: rustlers1911 on April 26, 2011, 18:35:52: I am new on here and I am looking for a few rc cars from my childhood.

Specifically I am looking for Eliminators, Hi Jackers and Bandits, as is apparently everyone else on here. I check ebay fairly often but Hi Jackers seem hard to come by.

If you could find any of these, especially for a decent price I would certainly think about a donation ;)

Thanks!
Title: Re: Are you looking for something specific? tyco or nikko cars you had as kids?
Post by: czstycor/c on April 26, 2011, 19:37:27: Well what is your price range for these? I no longer have a hi jacker but do have eliminators and bandits and fast traxx if you like them.
