optima!
Wow! wonder if this means kyosho might re-release the optima ? probably not since it would fall apart with a modern motor.. but still, a cool little retro toy

The chain drive optima was my 1st 4wd :) then a PB Mini mustang after that i think, then a optima mid, then a second hand Yoko Dogfighter i bought of Mr Doughty lol, they were the days.
|
I had a Chain Drive Turbo Optima. If they re-released it I would definately buy one.

I had a chain drive Kyosho Rocky, pre-runner to the optima....
|
I have a collection of new build Optima Turbo's and Optima Pro some are chain drive and the others have the Option House Belt drive kit.
|
MMMMMmmm, optima turbo and optima pro, nice looking cars.

I think it is a poor translation, more meaning re-release.
|
Nah!!
pull back means just that, its a toy, you pull it back and it shoots forward with a spring inside ?? you know, the sort of thing you get in a happy meal at mcdonalds! this is just a little toy for fun, but the fact they remember the old cars is a good thing. |
I got a bit confused there reading radio controlled on the box, but I think my mororised 1/32 marui optima said that too.
it is just a toy, here is the other one, this actually says on it what it is. http://www.geocities.jp/hobbyshows/j...oka/rc/132.jpg |

It was my first car too, back in 1987...
Oh, I want one so much !:D Pull-back is perfect for playing in the living-room. "No, honey, this is not a toy, this is an hommage to a vintage RC racing machine. Please get out the way to the ramp":p |
