Unknown Nikko

Recommended Posts

Hi.

i'm trying to track down a Nikko RC car I had when I was very young. All I remember is that it was quite small, 1/18 i recon. It looked like a little 4x4 pickup with a removable rear cover. The best thing about it though was it had a built in winch and it could pull itself up walls and all kinds. Does anyone remember this or is it only me? :)

Thanks

Hmm.

Nikko made a few Toyota Hi-Lux models. Earlier ones were often red or blue, and had small (scale sized) wheels and were 1/16 scale. They also had a removable canopy. Trouble is that I don't think I've come across one with a working winch on it.

But here's an example anyway...
