Dude, I had the trailer! I was a genius with programming that thing at such a young age.
This was the toy I loved too because it had the only gun sounds that really sounded like Star Wars, back then at least.

I grew up fast 'cause my parents didn't want me to have unrealistic expectations...

Seriously 'though, I only ever had 2 "toys":
A basic Meccano set and a steam-driven locomotive that I used metho and a wick to fire up. Thing was, I'd say, less than a foot long and I only ran it a couple o' times. Was "messy" - real sooty.

This was my first RC. I was stoked. Burned out the 540 motor in like 3 days. Sucked as the hobby shop was 20 minutes away and had to wait 2 weeks for my mom to bring me to get a new one.

That ain't no toy that's serious business once you get the playing cards in the spokes and a knobby tire on the back.

I see yours and raise you mine.
Pretty close to this anyway. Mine was similar but a 3 speed at the thumb. I remember the handle bar tassels and the fact that it was a 3 speed, which IIRC was almost futuristic in 1975
