This isn't a hobby grade product or a collector's item as far as I know. Perhaps in 80 years it may be worth something to somebody, but for right now, it's not really worth anything. $10 sounds about right.

Well it's like new and ZERO exist online for sale anywhere. I'd say that's pretty collectible since RadioShack isn't a thing anymore. Thanks tho!

Anything is collectable as long as you can find a collector. As someone who's been in the hobby fir awhile, I'm just giving you an honest opinion. Could I be absolutely wrong? Sure.

Best of luck to ya.

Radio Shack - fond memories. I’m sad it doesn’t exist anymore like it used to…. The RC vehicle is a piece of history. Somebody bought it and obviously did not run it much or at all.
 
I got one of these for Christmas in 2002 and I’m now 29. I remember it because it was a HUGE deal back then… exact same model from radio shack only. it was like the top of the Line RC truck… the commercial for it demonstrated it climbing a 45 degree hill which isn’t much now days but back then… true 4x4…. it was an absolute hoss. I think the tag on this baby was like $299 even back then. Not sure I’ll have to ask my parents. As far as collectibles… not sure but I’m positive NOT A SINGLE person will come across another one for sale.
 
Nice score for 10 bone !! Any toy new in the box is collectable even if its to fill a shelf. There are toy collectors with massive hordes and some might even just collect radio shack. I mis radio shack also they had everything RC, stereo, speakers, battery's, sweet digital volt meters with PC interface. Anybody remember the free battery club?

My first computer was a TRS80.
Radio Shack was a tech geek's toy store!

This is not the same but similar. It's the Nikko branded Avalanche.
