Default Old Nikko car

Hey everyone. I am not sure if there is anyone on here that can help me but I was wondering if anyone had any idea where I could get an old Nikko Car. I have done an internet search for a car that was made in the early 90s called the Land Shark. I have found a newer vehicle with that name but its not the one I am looking for. THe one I am intrested in is a blue, buggy style car that had treads. If anyone knows where I can get one or a place to look for one please let me know. Thanks.

Yeah. Tried there but all I get is the new landshark. I cant even find a picture of the old car on the web. Makes me wish I had kept mine in better shape when I was a kid.

Thanks for the info. You dont happen to know if the guy with the massive collection is willing to part with one do you? Or how to get ahold of him. I really want one of these cars. They are just to cool.

So why do you want a Tyco Land Shark when you can get some really nice ones now? He probably won't sell it cheap since it is soo old.

The reason is because I had one as a kid and its one of the few things from my child hood that didnt suck.

Yeah, nostalgia is pretty good motivational factor sometimes. I wouldn't mind another Nikko Tacoma.

Yeah thats the only reason I want one. On a side note anyone know what the value of it would be? And did Nikko make a 4.8v Truck called the Bandit? I had a 4.8v truck that I cant remember the name of. Would love to have another on of those too.
