DennisCA Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 When I was a kid in the 80s my parents bought me a Tayio, well I didn't know the name until last night. It has been with my three nephews for a decade or more now but I want to bring it back home and renovate it (it's a bit beat up). I am curious if there is such a thing as spare parts for this, I am not sure if they can find the controller, the car is found but last night they were still looking for the controller. Both it and the car has lost their antennas, and one of the front suspensions on the car I remember is stiff, broke and was superglued. I must see if I can fix that. The "window" is also broken so I need to see if I can make a new one or repair the existing one, perhaps fiberglass. I'd love to know more about this model and this manufacturer, from what I can see they are no longer around anymore. This is the exact model: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53HRA Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Welcome to MSUK Unfortunately this is a toy grade RC, so you'll struggle to find spares (if any) . These were made to play with out the box, and not to break and then rebuild like a hobby grade. Your best bet is to have a look on eBay and you may come across something like it or similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisCA Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 Oh well maybe I can make something of it once I have it in my hands again, I think it will be a good 1st car for my own twin boys who have just turned 4 if I can get it fixed up.

Only4Fun Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 (edited) I got this on Ebay recently. Taiyo Edge Freestyle BMX. Toy grade but working and fun. The figure is 12 inches tall and the BMX is 12 inches long. Edited September 15, 2017 by Only4Fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly In My Soup Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Taiyo was akin to Nikko. They made RC toys like the hovercraft, pajero jeep, looked cool, that was about it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
