Radioshack ZipZap Micro R/Cs!!!!

[ryanzion]

hey everyone,
I wus wondering if anyone else had zipzaps because just like xmods, they're made by radioshack too. if you havent heard of them theyre as big as hot wheel cars.But they're super fast!!! =)

[scoter]

i had one like a year or two ago, there pretty fast. i liked that you can charge them on the controller

[youngxmodder]

i had a bunch of them a while back i had all the 2fast 2furious bodys with all the motors and gears man they were fast but they soon ended in a bike accident

[xmodzracer]

I had one at one point. It worked for chasing the dogs. Then it had an unfortunate experience with some fireworks.....

[ryanzion]

lol, whats with all the accidents? Sorry about the bicycle accident, and i dont even want to know about the fireworks one...:nodno:

I have a few bodys, even a 007 aston martin v12 vanquish. actually my acura rsx had an accident of rolling down my long steep driveway and under my car..so now its pretty messed up...but new starter kits are like $10.00 at radioshack:nod:

[xmodzracer]

dont even want to know about the fireworks one...

well i know you dont want to but ill just hint that it involved several artillery shells and some lighter fluid...

I have 4. Don't really use them much. I have 1 "James Bonds" Aston Martin DB9 and all of the Transformers Zip Zaps.

We used to race them on our pool table at the fraternity house - they were a lot of fun. Not sure what happened to mine.

hahah, racing on a pool table.:lol: thats one way to make a course. i actually got the glow in the dark race kit with checkered flags, green flags, orange cones, and glowing green cones.

Yeah, it was fun. It reminded me of the old micro machines video game for NES - a few of the courses were on a pool table.

[booman]

i love the monster truck zipzaps

[GearHeadV8]

i have looked every where to buy a monster truck zip zap. if anyone knows where i could get one please tell me. i have the off road tires kit for them. and i just found the rx-7. did anyone else notice the connector is the same for the lights on the zipzap as the xmods

[kendallcschm]

i have zip zaps but i thought they were dumb and slow... i upgraded to something faster and cooler... its called an xmod lol no offense bout the zip zaps... they just bored me lot after a while

[Camaro98]

The zipzaps are kind of a novelty, but they're pretty cool for what they are as a pocket-sized full-function RC. I never got a whole lot of use out of mine....the cat thought they were a blast to attack every time I tried driving the things around the kitchen....except for the monster truck. He was afraid of the monster truck for some reason.

My collection:

"Herbie" VW Beetle
2002 Camaro SS
"Bigfoot" Monster Truck
2005 Mustang GT
Aston Martin DB9 (James Bond car)

I do a lot more with the Xmods these days, though.

Don't play mod.

Its got grave-digging if it pertains to the topic.

On topic: ZipZaps are now made by Xmods. (Or is the other way around? :-? )

[kendallcschm]

no you got it right adn i don't like zip zaps.. they are too small... i had a few... and still do...

[bosco72]

they should have made them bigger like the dnanos.Even if they gave us the same stupid xmod controller.

i completely agree with you! :-) the cars are too small (i can't drive them around on the furry carpets in my house) and i can't hold the controller in my hands... its too small...

WTH?? xmods and zip zaps are made by radioshack...

[Camaro98]

what he means is that Zipzaps are now being sold under the Xmod brand
