Die cast trucks

[DSRacing]

Dave the modelman sent me these photos of some die cast trucks which are supposed to be available at Walmart and other hobby shops in April. Thought you might want to see them.

[DSRacing]

The first one is the SCORE model, this one is CORR.

[Kbach66]

Very cool looking. What scale are they, or approx. what size? They'd both make a nice addition to my desk at work....the more models on the desk, the less work I have to do!!!

[elcaprerunner]

Solo Motorsports is really sponsoring these models?? Wow, I am surprised because Solo is such a small shop. Anyway, thos things are **[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]¡Ay, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]¡Ay, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]¡Ay, caramba![/I]****[IMG]http://cdn3.race-dezert.com/forum/images/mexico-flag.png[/IMG] [I]¡Ay, caramba![/I]** and I am going to buy both when they come out.

I believe they are 1/18 scale

[elcaprerunner]

Forgot to ask, does the suspension really work like other die cast models of that size? PCI-Scott showed me a pic of his at contingency last Friday night, they look really cool.

Not sure on the price, maybe modelman might know, I'm sure if their going to be at Walmart, it shouldn't set you back much.

[John_Bitting]

Scott said he will order 500-1000 of them to make sure people get them. Just like the ever elusive blue buggy that I still never found Wal-Mart can be very hit and miss with stuff like that. So I say support the sport and buy them from Scott @ PCI. Hell he will even sign it if you ask him. I know I am getting mine signed from him.

[dave]

Well they should be around $25.00 but who knows I picked up the first car they made for
only $12.00 or $14.00 at Wal-Mart .They do have working suspension and steering . I was told they should be in stores around April or may in some places even March. I will post the other two .

[dave]

The other one. Well what John said is true it's hit and miss but , if you can't get them in Wal-Mart
or Hobby People when they first come out Just give it time I'm sure you'll be able to get all of them
sooner or later. I know I'll be looking .

[Brian Mapes]

Anyone know scotts@pci's email? so i can order one off him.thanks.

John,

Racer X Motorsports is a distributor and carries the full line of those die casts:
Metal Mullisha M/C, Kawasaki M/C, Quad, Baja 1000 M/C, LBZ M/C, and the Baja 1000 Unlimited Buggy.
The Trophy Truck, Truggy, and Sand Car are coming soon!

In addition, we also offer the Schlesser Dakar Buggy's, Toyota Trophy Truck (early and late style), and several other off-road / motorsport collectibles.

B&R Buggie, Race Ready Products, and Kevin McMullen Racing in Arizona stock them for retail sale. Wholesale inquiries can contact me at mike@racerxms.com.

Glad to hear the interest and excitement!

[DougM]

Mike is this Racer X just a mailorder off shoot of RaceReady Products? The site has nothing on it (as far as products)

Its been that way for a few months?

[Mike_Cohen]

No, it is my new company that specializes in manufacturing and distributing performance, communications, and safety equipment products as well as toys and collectibles. I will be leaving Race Ready Products to run Racer X Motorsports, Inc. full time. While I'll miss the day to day interactions of a retail operation, I am excited to pursue my dream of manufacturing and distributing
unique high quality products to many different customers / markets.

Sorry about the website content being stale. Between opening a new business, changing web designers and hosts, we have been working on completing the site as well as a color catalog / brochure.

If you have signed up for our mailing list, stay tuned as you will be receiving our catalog in the next 2 to 3 weeks as well as being notified of any and all web site changes and updates.

Thanks for your interest!

Anyone else pick up any of the 7s style diecasts from ToysRUs? We found them last night, leafspring rear, coil front, looks like a Cheyotatord. The back of the box displays about a dozen paint schemes, but we only found 3 so far. Just more to add to the collection...

Martin

[dave]

Any pic's ?

[John_Bitting]

Got them at Walmart. They come apart completely. Pretty cool

[JrSyko]

How many of these little trucks do you guys have now?! What do you do with phem all?

See ya in the dirt!

[dunerking]

John how is it going?It sounded like you found some of the die-cast,which Wal-mart did you find them at?Also what did they have as a selection?What size are they actually(1/24 1/18)?Tried to PM Mike for some info(models, price)but yet to hear back,was just going to buy some off him,but damn if you can find them at Wal-mart,then I will try some hunting.

hit it hard

[martininsocal]

I will work on some pics when I get home. Jr, I have a collection of matchbox/hotwheel size cars all set up to start a race...In starting order...Trophy trucks, Class 1, Class 8, Bajas...The big stuff just sits on the shelf. Some day, I will do an animated movie about a purple Baja winning overall kicking Robby's TT in the dirt!

Martin

If your gonna go, go BIG

[John_Bitting]

I open them up and put them in my daughters toybox. They play with them. They dont have that many.

[Junior]

I picked up a couple of the 7s style ones at Walmart when I was there looking for the TT model. I think they are called Dirt Wheels or something like that. All fenders and the cab can be removed. Very cool.

[dave]

Last one.

[martininsocal]

Like I said- A Chevoyotatord! They didn't have that one in stock. We got the green one and the Black one. What I want to know is who is buying these things before we do? Does this bode well for Offroad in the future? Does this mean there are kids out there whothink offroading is cool and they can't wait to do up their trucks this way? Just think....

If your gonna go, go BIG

[pciscott]

The new Toyzone cars will not ship until early April, they have two new buggies that are a lot like the original, a Corr truck, and Trophy Truck #7. As stated they will be available at Walmart. I will also be getting my hands on some for resale. If you guys can find them at Walmart good luck, but if you want to help support Trophy Truck #7 I will have them for sale. I have started a list of everyone who wants them and I am up to 62 so far this is not including all the ones I will have to give up to family and team members that help me out. I will even drop down my John Hancock if anyone wants it. The price at Walmart will be around $20, I will be selling them for $24.95. All proceeds will help keep Trophy Truck #7 out on the track.

Scott Steinberger Trophy Truck #7

[gary]

wal mart on beach/imperia has one left, #07, top left in the pic of the back of the box...i got #55, top/center...i just noticed that my bedsides are different than the one pictured...no flare...oh well....

i think modelman dave could redo one into a protruck, easy...... :)

[DougM]

The WalMart here in Poway had 15 of them. $9.88 each. 4 different versions.

I got the flamed protruck version. I was going to pull off the cab and bedsides but there are like a zillion of the smallest screws Ive ever seen(think smaller then sunglass screws)
to take it apart. I'd loose them and it would drive me nuts..

just let it sit on the shelf and look nice.

[dave]

Ok well It's not a Protruck... But I made some front fenders and put some piant to work...And this
is how it came out.

[dave]

Another picture...

[dave]

Last picture..............

[gary]

that's how they should look!
they're just beggin' for a spare tire on the back, aren't they? i was thinkin' of buying a second one, just to take a tire off it for a spare.....

[dave]

I was thinking about that to getting another for a tire, I found that tire in my box of model tires.. The wheel is a tad big but the tire is the same size...... They get the toys so close but yet they don't go all the way...

[martininsocal]

I hate it when people put steeckers over the dzus buttons!!! Oh well, so the stickers are a bit worn... I wanna know why they have the old Chevy Truck rear arms from a nascar cup car on the back...

[bajaboy]

Anyone seen these at Wal-Mart yet ? Its April !!! If I see one at the Wal-Mart near me I'll post something so let ya all know !!

Eric

[JeffS]

I haven't seen the ToyZone TT#7 yet, but I did pick up the little techwheels truck... it's pretty cool, I got the same one as Dave...
HEY DAVE ... how did you make the front fenders flare like that ??

[gary]

wal mart on beach/imperial has the tech wheels ones...i got one there, and last time i looked, like a week or so ago, they had a few left

[hxckidd]

wall mart in foothill ranch had the same one as dave's they only had one when i last looked.

[THNKPNK]

You gotta go to the Walmart where you wouldn't expect a ton of desert racing fans to be (so they wont sell out)....the one in Anaheim at the "Anaheim Plaza" (Euclid just North of La Palma) has 'em...

=)



<font color=orange>CU OFRD
Ah...so many pedestrains, so little time </font color=orange>

[dave]

I used the same stuff I use on the models I make.....you can see pictures of what I use on the F-250 thread .
I'm looking into finding out if the they have been released yet , and if so what stores will have them....I will post as soon as I find something out.

[dave]

I saw in a add from Cycle Parts West last night and they have the Trucks and the buggy plus all the quads and bikes ... The trucks are priced at $19.99. Not sure if they had them in stock or if they will have them at there sale on the 27 th ?

[bajaboy]

The Anaheim Wal-mart is the one I live by , They always got the Tech trucks in stock ! I also got that Schelesser buggy there too.

Eric

[dave]

Ok ......... Here's the real deal on the Trophy trucks/new style buggies. The MFGR has just started shipping them in they should be arriving around MAY and we should start to see them in stores by JUNE. This was told to me by a very reliable source .

[TROPHYSEDAN]

Just got home from wall mart .I got the Baja 1000 motor cycle .Its got 2 lights.3 big score stickers on it.Know i have relatives looking in Oklahoma for me.For the rest of them.

[michael]

I've seen lots of the original blue buggys here in Texas if you guys need 'em let me know and I'll pick up a few. They go for around $17.
michael@mkparker.com

[dave]

I picked up the Corr diecast truck the other day and did a little change to it. It's not done but I think it looks cool... Might have to buy a few more and turn them into all the DESERT TT's ...

[dave]

Another shot..

[Steve_HKmtrsprts]

I was waiting to see when you were gonna modify those models, yet again Dave, bad-azz work. I'd try that to my toys but then I would ruin them.

[EQuin]

Hey Michael!

How's it going? Are you talking about the blue Schlesser Paris-Dakar buggy or another one? I got the Schlesser buggy at the Lancaster, TX Wal-Mart, but I haven't seen any other off-road racing models there.

Hope all is well up in Sherman. Take care neighbor!

[Junior]

Dave, I forgot about PCI selling those TT die cast trucks at the 500 until late in the day when I saw a kid with one. I hauled ass over to get it only to find out that they were sold out. http://www.race-dezert.com/vb3/attachments/old/images/graemlins/frown.gif
