Bigger Awesome RC

Has anyone seen these new "Awesome RC"? They are 1/35 scale and are the same cars from F&F. They also come in a clear nitrous bottle with the same controllers , only bigger. It doesn't have a charging base, just pop 3 AAA batteries in the car and 2 AA (three triple A and two double A, weird huh?) and you're ready, You have to have a screwdriver handy to take the car off the glass base, and it even has a nifty on/off switch on the bottom to save power! Here is a pic:

These things ACTUALLY have TRACTION, unlike the others. they turn widely, and when you hit the turbo button, it screams louder more than it goes faster. AND they are 14.99.....that's three bucks less than the 1:64th scale!

TOP THAT, Azimov! just joking, no insult meant here.

Here is a pic of the price sticker for those who don't believe me.

Did you get it at Wal-Mart? I have exactly $15 and that could be a good way to spend it.

I've seen them at TRU, but don't remember the cost.

charliebrown 08-03-2003 07:45 PM

You COULD get them at Walmart, and definetly at TRU.

Yeah, I saw the 1/35 scale ones at TRU too, but I bought a MS instead. Theres a new walmart that is about 4 miles from my house ( super-Walmart) and It has:

-Awsome RC 1/64
-Awsome RC 1/35
-Phat Boyz RC Car
-Motorworks
-Motorworks NASCAR
-Motorworks Boat & SUV Combo
-MS Sport

(btw they said its the biggest Walmart in the state of NC-:cool: )

But you are still missing the Motorworks boat by itself. My Wal-Mart has individual (sp?) Motorworks boats that are really bad looking. They are kind of chubby and have the tiny Motorworks Tx.

i have never heard of these. do you have any pics, or threads that would show/tell me about them. and are they better than the nkoks?

Way too much battery useage. :rolleyes:

edit: I see that it uses a 9 volt. Does it go in the car? If so, that thing must have one :eek: of a top speed!!! But then again, 6 AAA's going in the car equals 6*1.5v= 9v again.....so if you're using non rechargeables, then that's cool too. BUT don't forget, the less voltage going through a car, the less speed. Rehargeable NiCads have 1.25 volts, NiMH's have 1.2, and non rechargeable batteries have 1.5. So, you can save money and have less speed, or keep wasting for more speed. Life is so unfair.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
