Here is the full picture (not mine) of the listing when I found it-I used the Pulsar on my first Ultima in 89 :)

Very cool!
Looks like all the papers are there! 😎

I remember those old chargers. 👍
I think 1 guy made them in his basement and supplied at least 30 different companies with them! 🤣

I'm going through the flyers, It's wild, I remember them from the hobbyshops at the time when I'd visit my grandparents in seattle (and my grandfather had all the big tower hobbies bibles). Check these out:

Damn thats an awesome find!

Pretty sure id have a very hard time running that one. Maybe just the occasional light run.
Thats an awesome price also. Those tend to bring much more in that sorta condition.

Thanks you guys :) And yeah I remember setting up two servos, the mechanical speed control and the 4 double A batteries needed to run them and the rx back in the day!
 
Thanks for posting the clippings.

It's really cool to see the old logos of companies that are still involved in the industry.

Personally, I was never exposed to the retail part of the hobby back in the day so it's nice to see.

I will post some more, and I forgot about the Kyosho micros, they were super detailed. You're welcome!
 
 
Worked on the TurboScorpion and the Outlaw a little today, tried to make the picture look more vintage, the unbuilt original turbo optima and the UltimaDB are the other two that I didn't put in the picture. :) I ordered a Kyosho banner for the RC Room today!
