Description
This is a brand new in box, original Nikko Super Fox 4WD buggy from 1986. The buggy is mint, brand new, never run, complete with box, transmitter and manual. Still has that brand new smell! There are polystyrene supports sitting underneath the rear wing as part of the packing – I did not even remove these for the photos. Truly an untouched jewel left over from the 1980s.
The Nikko Super Fox is a truly beautiful, old school buggy – and you will never find a better example than this one. Everything is included – the manual, transmitter, antenna, antenna tube, and original box. The box is in pretty nice shape too – not perfect, with some wear, but still very presentable and with great photos.
Ready-to-run R/C buggies like this were all too easy to take out of the box and play with, and very few untouched examples are left in the world today. Don’t miss the chance to add the gorgeous Nikko Super Fox to your collection.
History
The Nikko Super Fox is surely one of the most attractive buggies ever released by Nikko. Featuring a great colour scheme, real sponsor decals, window netting and spotlights, it’s a buggy that fans of vintage Tamiya and Kyosho cars will appreciate. Released in 1986, it was also one of Nikko’s earliest 4WD buggies – as they joined the 4WD bandwagon in the R/C buggy market (4WD buggies were very popular from about 1985 onward). Running on 8xAA batteries and featuring the ever popular “Turbo” on the transmitter, this is also a car capable of quite entertaining speed. Definitely a classic buggy from the golden era of realistic R/C models.
