Was it amazing? Did it effortlessly zoom over land & water? I hope you appreciated how lucky you were
I never had a great surface to run it on. The driveway wasn't smooth enough and the kitchen didn't have enough space. Imagine an RC car on ice. Would work on water but once again has to be pretty tame water.

I asked for this every freaking year, but my parents wouldn't, for whatever reason. I need to buy one for myself now that I'm old.

As someone who had one, dont waste your money. The battery life on it sucked and it didn't really go over anything remotely hard very well. I was pretty disappointed bc the commercial made it look invincible against anything.

lol I haven't fired it up in decades. I'd be surprised if everything worked correctly.

My older brother always got the good toys while I was stuck with the shittier ones. He got the Autobots while I was stuck with the Decepticons. He got GI Joe while I settled for Cobra. And he got the lion Voltron set while I was stuck with this Voltron money grab:

I wanted those x-ray specs to be real SO bad. I was a little pervert, I guess.

Always saw them in comic book ads with sea monkeys and itching powder.

Decepticons and Cobra were awesome. Certainly not second class action figures. The car Voltron was shite though.

I wanted this but my dad made me make my own fricking robot out of a coke 2L bottle and some slinky arm things. FML.

I had the Typhoon Hovercraft. It was awesome then but probably a piece of crap in reality.
