  • I have wanted one of these since a kid and I think its the best RC truck ever made. It reminds me of a tyco bandit just bigger scale. These will now go on the shelf as shelf kings and I will try to hunt another one down for a runner. Thanks for watching!

    As a man now in my mid 40`s, I too was that kid in the early 90`s that wanted a king cab, I had to settle for a Madcap, then a Lunchbox. But I am on the hunt for a king cab to finally fulfil a dream!!

    @andrewbouffard6118 Před měsícem

    I remember vividly that issue of the magazine I must have mowed tons of lawns to save up for that king cab! Then a radio the few more weeks for a charger and battery!! Man the memories hopefully they will do a re-release!
    Even at that time my uncle and I went looking for that track that was suppose to be near Orlando and never found it

  • @mrlt1
    @mrlt1 Před měsícem

      @David Dollerup That's the only thing I'm afraid of. Tamiya re-release their builds, but sometimes things are different from the original. I would them to change nothing but the gears.
