Different types of Cars by Marui Nichimo Otaki

[professorslot]

I know this doesn't belong into this forum, but alot of people have a look at it and might be able to help me out,I'd really like to know how many different models were availbe from companies like Marui, Nichimo, and Otaki. I like those brands but have no clue how many different models they really offered. I've got alot of Marui stuff

already (Hunter, Galaxy, Ninja, Shogun, Coors Melling, Wheelie Cruiser

and Jeep), I think I'm only missing the Big Bear. From Otaki, I've seen BMW 3.0 CSL, and a Countach, were there any more, from Nichimo , I know of the vantage, Spirit FF, and Nichimo Exeed Pro, and Mazda RX 7 + Porsche 935, Any help would be appreciated

Should have asked me about this kind of thing

in my investigations to know all there is to know about the weird and wonderful world of RC 1:10 EP Off Road Buggies and trucks, I've accumulated a lot of information about various brands, though my interests is only for Off-Roaders I do sometime see Road cars models as well.

Marui is EASY they only made 12 RC kits in total

Super Wheelie: White Toyota Land Cruiser (The first Marui)

Super Wheelie: Blue Land Cruiser (Killer Whale Decals)

Super Wheelie: Black CJ-7 Goldern Eagle Jeep

Super Wheelie: White CJ-7 Goldern Eagle Jeep

Big Bear (First RC Monster Truck)

Hunter

Galaxy (Red Cage, 360RS motor Limited Edition?)

Galaxy RS (Blue Cage, 540 Motor)

Samurai

Ninja (first called the MX486i as a prototype)

Shogun (with Ninja chassis)

Coors Melling Thunderbird (NASCAR outline, LAST Marui Car)

they also had plans to make another Super Wheelie car (Mitsubishi Jeep) but for some reason it never made it into mass production

Nichimo made a total of 6 buggies

Spirit FF (First Car and most Common, novel Front wheel drive)

Exceed Pro 443 4WDS "Pegasus" (Mid Motor 3 diffs, based on Spirit)

Vantage FF (like the Spirit except Pipe frame body and gold wheels)

Midships (like Exceed cept same body differences as Vantage)

Cosmo Shooter 2WD (New futuristic looking RWD, extreamly rare)

Luminous 4WD (Still with 3 diffs but no 4 wheel steer, strange body)

Nichimo also have done a few Road cars that I have noticed, there may be more I have yet to see though....

Mazda RX-7 Savanna

Porsche 935 Turbo

Lancia Stratos HF (looks like Plastic kit but is RC?)

De Tomaso Pantera Gr5

Lotus Europa???? (1:12 scale could have been plastic kit)

BMW M1

as for Otaki... never heard of them, if they didn't make an Off Roader then I'm really not interested [8)]
