Nikko Thor

[XslaneyX]

Hi all

Been searching high and low but had no joy in locating a Nikko Thor RC truck. I had one on my 11th birthday and i never knew what happened to it all those years ago. I am trying to track another one down for sentimental value and to pass on to my kids when they are old enough.

I have also emailed Nikko EU in the meantime to find out more but no response yet!! If anyone has or knows of any knocking about then please send any info my way. It would be most appreciated


Cheers

For what it's worth, get them a modern equivalent. Since the recent downfall of Modelzone there are some bargain RTR Blackfoot III's on the market, made by Tamiya. Far superior to the toy-grade Nikko and complete with 2.4gHz radio equipment pre-installed.

Definitely more fun to be had.

I will do some searching and check the blackfoot reccommendation out.


Many thanks
