erupff Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Hi everybody-- Just wanted to let all who fear the bunny (and all of you other Shelby afficionados!) that Enertec--the same company making the Shelby Racing set featured on our forum homepage--has manufactured a 1/20 scale remote control Terlingua in black and yellow (just like Vorpal's)! However, they can only be found at the following retail chains: Menards, Albertsons, and Oscheln Farms. There is currently one up for sale on ebay, and it looks just like the 1/18 diecast, only a bit smaller. Awesome detail! Menards does mail order over the phone, so have at it all and ROLL BUNNIES!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordicShelby Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Yep I already picked my Terlingua and the KR remote control cars up last week at Menards, they had about 20 of each so if anybody needs one and can't find them let me know I'll hook you up there really cheap I think I paid $15 plus tax. There are about 40 Menards around here in Minnesota this is where Menards was founded I remember when I was a kid going to the very first Menards.

Frank S Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Is that the "Albertson's Supermarket food store" or the "Albertson's other-kind-of-store"? Around here we got the former, but I don't know of any of the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around here we got the former, but I don't know of any of the latter. I got the information from Enertec; I emailed them overseas and they responded to my message with the stores listed....all they wrote was Albertsons.....I would guess the supermarket, I don't know any other one.....I guess if you wanted to you could email them as well and get a more specific response...their email for customer service is: enertec@netvigator.com Hope this helps!

VorpalBunny Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 Hi All, With the release of the Terlingua versus SS version of the slot set has Enertec released a Terlingua Remote Control Car with the Red SS on the box? Just curious for those who live where these might be for sale. I found the KR/Terlingua version at Menards by phone. :happy feet: Thanks and Happy New Year!

07SGT0547 Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 As much as I have tried (and tried and tried...) to find the Terlingua R/C Car, I just can't seem to find anything, anywhere in the KC Metro area The closest Menards is 2 hours North of me... And the 2 closest Orcheln's (1 local + another 30 miles away) only have the KR??? I can get my hands on probably 25-30 of the KR R/C Cars for only $9 each... And those were marked down to $12 before Christmas, and now have an additional 25% Off just to get rid of them Seems like my local stores were only sent boxes of the KR... So I'm guessing that there are other stores across the country that were only sent boxes full of the matching Terlingua cars??? Anyone got any "extra" of the Terlingua Cars??? THANKS!

Jody Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Most all Menards Stores have several of them. Regular price is $14.** , they are now on sale for 65% off. I was there today. In Eau Claire they have several, 10 or more of each, KR's and Terlingua"s in stock. Actually 50% off, but if you buy a green bag for .99 get an exra 15% off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually 50% off, but if you buy a green bag for .99 get an exra 15% off I know they were 50% off right before and after Christmas I bought a bunch of them before then went on sale and I tried to get the difference back but they only have a 14 day policy to price match and i bought all of mine when they first came in stock. Recently I have gone to about 5 of them around here and ALL of the Shelby things are long gone. I guess there is more Shelby toy collectors here in MN than WI. I wish they had some left as I would buy up every single one because I know members on here will be looking for them and at 50% off thats a real bargain. Not to change the subjest I feel I should tell my HONEST opinion on the Shelby SLot car set I actually bought the Shelby Slot car race track from SAI it was $80 bucks then I got 20% off of it so it cost me around $64 and at Menards there normal price was $60 so I bought one at there full price and gave it away to one of my friends kids for Christmas and I gave the one I bought from SAI to my daughter and told her Carroll Shelby remembered her from OSH Kosh and mailed this to her for Christmas she was so excited to get a present from Carroll Shelby we set it up today and tried to play it..............................................All I am going to say is I think SAI should have tested these for quality control. If I can figure out how to post video it would be very entertaining. I think they might have been banking on folks not playing with the slot car sets but I play with all my toys.

Jody Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I bought the slot car set also. I set it up Christmas day for the kids. What a piece of SH#!. I also bought it prior to the 50% off and the 14 day return policy applied to me as well. They young lady at the desk was not going to give me my funds back, but I asked for the manager and told her I was not going to return it to try to get the sale price of 50% off. I asked for an in store credit and it was given to me. I paid $41.99 at Menards. I told the manager the same thing about the cars going so fast they do not stay on the track, almost impossible! I also told her to be prepared for alot of returns on the race track. Folks, do NOT buy this race track set up!!!!! +1...................................................All I am going to say is I think SAI should have tested these for quality control.

Jody Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Darn...too bad we are not back there! I'd pick up a couple for sure....anyone want to pick up a couple and ship them? Phone number to the Office Manager Eau Claire, East Store. 715-830-5510. I am sure they will be more than happy to send you all the remote Shelby's you want. for the 50% off price. Ask them how many you need to buy to get free shipping, I am sure they will get you some kind of deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
