My R/C Yaris has arrived from HK! PICS
$20 from Ebay. Arrived in NY in 7 days.
It's a kit you assemble, not hard to do. Plastic is painted parts, not molded colored plastic. Nice dark charcoal metallic quality paint.Pretty nice quality too. ![]() Uses AAA batts. though... ![]() It actually works pretty good! ![]()

Yeah, I've no beef with paying $20 for something I can't seem to find anywhere around here! The stickers are very authentic, they stay on real good too.

Matchbox is like 1:64, so 1:43 is'nt a bad size.
They have some real nice BIG 1:18 (?) Yari on Ebay, but they want over $100 for them. ![]() Are these from Ebay too?

Echo_hrs, if you have a source of those Minichamps, I would be interested especially in the red one you posted (mine is a black 3dr, but that red looks kickass!). I have not seen them on eBay here and the Yaris diecast I have seen are waaaay overpriced! It's a bummer as we used to live within a 2-hr drive of Minichamps' headquarters in Aachen, Germany when I was stationed in Belgium. I collect diecast motorcycle models and have several of theirs, but I never made it up there. Cheers! M2 Last edited by MadMax; 07-01-2009 at 08:36 AM. |

Haha I bought 2 of those R/C cars, plus a few of the Tomica diecast ones in the small boxes. I love my wee yarii.

Nice RC, auxmike. Now that's something I'd be proud to chase my little nephew around with in my driveway on a day-off

This one looks real good, what do you think?

International Credit Card same as domestic: Visa, MC, AmEx, but there are fees for currency conversion, I bet. :(

I'm big into slot cars.....I'll be keeping my eye open for a Yaris someday. MINIs, and Fiat 500s, and Citroen C2s they've got but no Yaris yet. Something tells me I might not want to hold my breath on this.
