Just wondering if anyone knows if and where you can find the Wheelie R/C Monster Truck they used in the movie?
Or are they going to make them as it would be cool to have one on display :D

I've no idea what specific RC toy they used on the film.
But since then I've been staring at this rc truck to see if it compares to the movie (less the graphic paintapps and frontal details).

they reckon @ allsparks (http://www.allspark.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t60113.html), wheelie sports a Tamiya Midnight Pumpkin (http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=58070) body shell

or Ford F350 High-Lift (http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=58372) body shell with a HPI wheely king (http://www.hpiracing.com/kits/kitMain.php?partNo=10820) chassis

If anyone finds and buys one, can they put a camera on a stick and glue it to the top of the R/C, and then drive around people's front yards like Wheelie does in the movie? I reckon it would freak people out if they've seen the movie.
