Did you ever buy that toy you wanted as a kid but didn't get? (jemmy.jeena.net)

I myself wanted one of those remote controlled air planes. I thought that's the coolest thing ever. Once I grew up and had the money, I never bought it.

I wanted the RC car kevin (i think his name was ) used from home alone but now i realised that kinda car isn't real amd the closest thing you could have is an internet connecting camera strapped to a big ass 4*4 and a computer to watch it through but that doesn't even come to close as what it is depicted as in the movie and i have lost interest . Also still not that rich to spent that much on toys nor interested to be fair .

FPV is hugely popular these days. You can get small, light cameras with low latency that connect to goggles (or TV/monitor). Its fairly affordable and you wouldn't need a large RC vehicle to live out your Home Alone 3 dreams!

Edit: The car in the movie is a Tyco Mutator (for any interested RC nerds).
