About a two months back I watched a few episodes of SilverHawks and Dino Riders. The Tyco ads use to have me mesmerized. Was able to get some but it was so much I wanted, like the Tyco Bullet train. Tyco use to be !

I loved Tyco for their 9.6v radio control cars. I had the Hi-Jacker and my bro had the red Scorcher back in 1992/93 They were so much fun :smile:

Awww man LUCKY!!

I didn't know anyone who had it but I always wanted one to take to the beach :lol:

I probably would've lost it there too, lol. How'd you like the Hi Jacker? That Mabuchi motor was plenty quick for that car. I've seen vids of people swapping in faster motors and it super quick.

Loved it back then lol! Took mine over to my friends in the projects. Two of them surprisingly had the other color with the red or orange bottom. We did a lot of racing. Was disappointed the volt one was not the fastest.

The typhoon became like a Batmobile or something for my action figures lol. It was slow on most solid land, and quickly became a regular toy.

Damn, I would've lost since I had the neon yellow version :lol:

My brother's Scorcher would beat me on the top speed but I had the quickest take off.

That's pretty how I imagined using it. That's so cool though, that Typhoon was on many kid's want list at school besides Nintendo games and action figures.

I remember those guys. Nice pick up!

blacklion23 I actually found the main character from SilverHawks yesterday. It was the only one on the shelf besides 2 other Transformers Star Screams. I grabbed one and my bro did the other. I didn't know those were $25+ figures at Target. They're $5 at DeeDee's (similar to Ross)

Yeah man, it's slightly translucent with glitter to mimic when star scream was killed. It's the ghost version.

Have you seen the big rubber figures from LJN. They're in Target for $25 and replicas of the ones released in 1984/85. I was gifted Hulk Hogan and Dusty Rhodes for my Bday a few months back.
