Hopefully they make a US version however. White just doesn't look right...

They were basically the same, just gray:

I agree the white does not look right.  I've looked at them on eBay before.  I have very fond memories of my Big Trak.  Much more fun than a remote control car for some unexplained reason.

Wow cool - I had one of those but I haven't even thought about it in years...

It doesn't look right. The original had more 'stuff' up front, so the repro looks half finished. I didn't realize that they made them in a different colour for the US market.



Anyone remember something that looked an awful lot like a BigTrak in TerraHawks?

Holy ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, theres a blast from the past.

Anyone else have the dumper truck bit that plugged into the top??

Mine looked like this. 



They must have added more 'stuff' for the UK version?  Interesting.

Theres two repros coming out, the big trak jr. that has the bare looking nose and a full big trak replica....

Obviously I can't vouch for how genuine the ad is, but the ebayer has pretty good feedback.

EDIT: Seems like its really happening....

I don't remember these. Maybe they didn't make it to Australia for some reason. But seeing this for the first time, i think white looks more 'retro'. I'm guessing white or grey looks right depending on who holds the memory...
