Mark Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Only issued once, not many seem to have survived. Larger than 1/25 scale, some boxes (not mine) list the scale as 1/17 or 1/18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Van Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 There were always a few vendors selling them at the Fall Toledo show. But in the 1980's they were $100 or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Metallic Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I scored one awhile back. The box is roached out (it's barely intact enough to hold the contents. i should probably put it in a container so i don't lose anything.) I want to build one with the working "levitation" feature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick L Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I thought it was one of those soap dispensers you see in restrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjordan2 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I had one. As the instructions show, it came with a tube you blew in to, sending air under the car to levitate it. Fun for about 5 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldcarfan27 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 There's one on Epay right now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154787808550?hash=item240a128526:g:JOkAAOSwTUlh20hq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr moto Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I had one of those when it was first issued. It was a lot more fun if you hooked it up to the blower port of a vacuum cleaner instead of personally blowing through the tube but it still got old before too long. It could probably be made into some kind of a futuristic kustom and be more fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
