UPDATE: The answer is "Hot Wheels Road Wars"
I am looking for the name of some toy cars, from around the mid to late 90s.
They were about 10 cm/ 4 inches long (+/-). The whole theme was demolition derby / post-apocalyptic, and all the cars had different weapons and were designed after American classic or muscle cars .
There were two “factions”. Both factions had a playing card theme. One faction had a black theme with one car having a spade painted on the roof, another with a club, and so on. The other faction had a red theme with one car having a heart, another with a diamond, and so on.
The cars could open the entire body from the rear, and there may, or may not, have been small figures to place inside the cars.
The one I remember best, is the one with a black spade on the roof. It had an early Chevy Bel Air vibe and a spiked roll/drum (like a road roller) mounted in front of the car. Like the one on my crude drawing.
Google and local vintage toyshop cant find the right ones. Please help me, Reddit, you are mý only hope.
Hi this toy is probably from the early 2000s (2003 to 2008 maybe?) and i'm looking to find its name and where its from.
I have a vague memory its from a chain restaurant, like McDonalds or Burger King. I also thought it may be from a Barbie Island Princess collection (i think this cat is similar to the one in the movie?) but i'm not sure and i haven't got any luck searching for it online.
Can someone recognize it? It was my cat's favorite toy but it got lost and i'd like to replace it.
Hi all! I have a friend who is trying to remember a childhood toy, any help would be appreciated!
This would be from the 80s or 90s. Their description:
Looked like a record player
Was round & had beads that slid up and down on the circle to make notes
Had a button to press "play", would then play the tune that was created/prescribed
Had lights
It's not the Fischer Price record player, or a "Peg a Tune", although it's similar to the latter.
Thank you!!
