Very interesting! I see that they're in South Africa! What's the price in USD for something like that?

thanks for the link... I stopped at a Goodwill store and found one on the shelf for $10.  with transmitter but no charger.   I'll make something work.  must have a box of chargers someplace.

1/6/10--interesting to note that the toy was sold for $60 new; a battery and charger were 79.99+s/h in one place and 108.00 in another.  finally found a charger for $5.

it a interesting toy but not worth that much.
