“The Winch” by Matsushiro was a versatile, toy-grade 4WD Toyota Landcruiser of high quality and with some unique features.
Category: R/C Cars
Nikko Night Stalker (1989)
Small but fast – the Nikko Night Stalker was a favourite in 1989, great value, and typical of the quality Nikko were releasing in the late 1980s.
Tandy/Radio Shack Wild Champ (1987)
An affordably priced little buggy with roll-cagey looks and big balloony tyres for fun in the dunes. The Tandy / Radio Shack Wild Champ is well remembered.
Gama/Likto Sea Ranger (1981)
A radio controlled amphibious toy, modeled after a one-off concept car that looks like it came from a 1970s sci-fi movie? The Gama Sea Ranger is too cool for words.
Team Associated RC10 (1984)
Remembered as a world-beater in competitive circles, the original RC10 buggy was a kit-based model and the first off-roader created by hobby-grade R/C company Team Associated.
Tandy/Radio Shack Mini Land Cruiser (1983)
A cute and reasonably affordable little soft-roader from the era before the toy-grade manufacturers were making open-wheeled R/C buggies. It was available from 1983 – 1986.
