Nikko Rhino...my 1st semi-hobby quality RC car.

I've been on a Knight Rider kick lately due to it having a streaming channel. The 1984 episode titled 'A Good Knight's Work' which is from Season 2, Episode 20 had a Wild Willy in it. It was shown for only a few seconds moving around with other toys in the storage room of a fake toy factory.

Knight Rider is great, but I prefer Knight Boat.

Still the best commercial....

Clint Eastwood's Deadpool was the first one I thought of as well.

Oceans 12, the two meathead brothers that are always bickering. The skinny one (Affleck) had a 1/4 scale monster truck and was going to race the brother (Caan) in his real Bronco.

Stargate Atlantis

I think that about taps out my movie/tv RC memories.

The Manhattan Project (1986)
Tamiya Brat


That guard must be half deaf and half blind to not hear or see this car that has lights on it.

The Dead Pool, both cars.

It's in a cartoon movie, but is probably among the most famous in a movie.

Ha, I remember that! Ironically, the last time I saw that episode was in the '90s which is also the last time I watched an episode of Knight Rider until now.

Anybody remember the movie "Small Soldiers", 1998? There is some RC action in there. There's one "vehicle" with a sticker that says "One Phat Ride". I had to make a vinyl decal for my T3 that says the same. I put it across the rear, between the shock humps. Preliminary internet search reveals existence of said movie, but haven't found RC specific "footage" yet.....I will update if I find something.

A Tyco Turbo Hopper was in the Married with Children episode “Johnny Be Gone” season 1 episode 13.
