Hey guys - I recently got my hands on complete scanned copies of all vintage issues of RC Car Action magazine between its launch in 1986 thru 1999. Here is a link to the first issue! [LINK REMOVED - SEE BELOW] All 14 years of issues can be downloaded as one ZIP file per year at this link: [LINK REMOVED - SEE BELOW] Here's a taste... enjoy!

Just spent a little time scanning in my available recent off road and re-re Tamiya reviews. Been trying to search if anyone has done a definitive database or list so I could refer to so I could buy the back issue if I desired Can anyone help update this list? Specifically off road re-re's, I'm unaware at this time if any of the following were reviewed and in what magazine, month and issue no. Still looking for Subaru Brat, Super Fighter GR, Desert Gator, Sand Viper, Hornet, Lunchbox, Thunder shot, Top Force, Manta Ray, Rising Fighter etc etc Below is what I own so far ANY MARKED WITH ** ARE ONES POSTED IN THIS THREAD WHICH I HAVEN'T GOT BUT WOULD LIKE!
