The A-Team R/C Van

The A-Team R/C Van

Fans of the 80s action adventure television series “The A-Team” can now get their hands on a radio-controlled model of the vehicle used by Hannibal, B. A. Baracus and the rest of the crew.

Get to grips with the twin toggle transmitter and you’ll soon be whizzing around shouting ‘I pity the fool!’ as you attempt to outrun the imaginary forces of Colonel Decker.

With its characteristic red stripe and fabulously pointless rooftop spoiler, the A-Team R/C Van is more than a souped-up mercenary mobile; it’s an icon of vehicular pop culture.

The A-Team R/C Van

The fully-licensed The A-Team R/C Van is available from the firebox.com website for £24.95 (about $41 USD).

Update April 2011: The A-Team RC Van is also available for $44.99 at Newegg.com.
