    I was wondering what are the chances of us getting a fully articulated life size ultimate wheelie with a working RC Truck Mode?

    PS I know it's a long shot but I'm pretty sure with some hard work Has/Tak could do it.

    Probably not. I'm sure a remote control Wheelie would be cool, but I don't think people would want to buy a Supreme version of him.

    Even better idea "Target Range Wheelie" Just prop up this life sized Wheelie replica and take aim, loads of fun for the entire family. "Remember kids headshots are worth 50 points so aim high and squeeze tight." You know when it's time to replace Target Range Wheelie when he explodes. Target Range Wheelie is loads of fun for everyone, but don't take our word for it, listen to these real actual not made up in anyway customer reviews.

    It would be too simplistic if it were mass produced and would most likely end up slow and fragile or quick but chunky tonka style. Taking a Tamiya 1:10 monster truck as a base could be doable sure for a custom. Given enough time and money I could see a way to convert a Tamiya TXT.

    I see two ways of looking at it.

    1. surpeme sized wheelie, ehh sounds kinda lame.

    2. however, it would be life sized, and thats cool! outweighing #1 by far.

    I say great idea!

    If I worked at Hasbro, I would try really hard to make this happen. I think it is a really cool idea!
