Yes they're real.

I bought mine at Walmart for $14.88

Oh wait...You're asking about MICRO machines? (Thought you meant MUSCLE machines).

There's no such thing as Micro Machines...That I've heard of, simply too small to make R/C.

They made slot cars not a whole lot bigger than their cars. Lengthwise about 1 2/3 and height wise about two to three. They are very very fast! I have a set. The only thing that is annoying is the tires are dry rotting. It kinda sucks.

Hi everyone,

I'm mostly a lurker on this forum, too shy to speak up. I did want to share that I did remember owning a remote controlled Micro Machines tank. It wasn't radio-controlled, but had a wire connecting the tank to the remote. I believe that it only went forward and reversed to one side, a very rudimentary way of turning. It was very cool in that it was really small. Does anyone else remember these?

TTTT gets close to Micro Machine scale if you're interested (although it's expensive, I hope to try one soon).

Awww... Micro Machines... The memories...
