Nikko

Brand new for 2006 are the Nikko street screeching cars from the forthcoming Fast & Furious 3: Tokyo Drive film, due for release in June 2006.

The film, based around illegal street racing, has spawned popularity in street 'tuning' cars, either on the road, or off the road in your living room!

Screeching up alongside the Nikko Street Mayhem range of modified, custom cars, comes the new Fast & Furious 3 range of 'bling bling' replica cars, driven by characters Shaun Boswell and 'DK - Drift King', in the next instalment.

Time to feel the thrill in your own front room! The Nikko radio controlled Fast & Furious 3 cars boast drifting tyres for real 'drift-drive' action and an opening bonnet to look into your powerful and pristine engine - all features on the 1:16 scale mean machine.

If you want more, check out the monster 1:10 scale, which features working headlights, 'spinners', roaring engine sound and vibration so you can start and finish the race in style!

Plus you can choose from these magnificent models: Nissan Skyline GTR-R34, Nissan Sylvia and the '69 Mustang Boss.
