Vintage R/C Excavator

[Lil Giants]

I had one of them 25yrs ago, got it from Toy-R-US for about $120?... the plastic gear drives, it don't take much to strip them... doesn't have a swing drive... rubber tracks tear easily... it's not a vehicle for outside in the sandbox. Had the dozer as well, didn't last an hour pushing snow before a rubber track tore. Why put money into a plastic toy that's never gonna have power enough to dig more than sawdust without breaking...
