Ya i know that one, same row as MING CAFE but they only sell bigger RC models but not minature models like KYOSHO MINI-Z, I-WAVER, or MINI 4WD or model kits. People all over Miri still looking for these stuff.

Prefer something i see for real on the shelf, visit and touch it and try it plus services on the spot.

i rem i ever bought a tiny rc subaru wrx from toysworld below the bookshop... the one near servay in cafe 2020 ...wonder if its still open

[allokitty]

A "Mini-Z I-Waver Subaru" or cheap "Auldey Subaru"?

[hbk126]

think its the cheap one ...but its not auldey . i bought around 60-70 i think...cant rem liau bout 2 - 3 yrs ago . can recharge the car on the remote control . pretty cute...can challenge my puppy in terms of speed...since it hasnt got eaten yet

[allokitty]

hmmmm.. i think that should be TOMY TECH brand. Have you seen KYOSHO around town?

[teamGD]

o ok, so u visited Foo's brother already (same row as ming cafe). hmm. this may be lame, but what bout Toy's world? haha.. yeah, it's still open

[allokitty]

Already, my friend also working at Toys World.....dun hav. Last time got lots of MINI-Z. That small piece of hardware can even overtake a big car after upgrade. Need to find a spare one.

Foo Brother (FB) r/c on the 1st floor above a coffee shop next to Meng Chai restaurant.
The "taukay" name is Ah Foo and he is usually in the Foo Brother motorbike shop on ground floor.
Mee Hua Shoe shop in town I still see some on the back display windows. Moved from the shop opposite Gloria Hotel.
Ah Beng (mostly Airplane/heli) in krokop, the coffee shop that sell nice laksa near Kong Teck motor.

Also, Siong Lee shop next to Hot Cross Bun at Pelita Commercial.
Toys World only sell the battery operated r/c like Tamiya or that sort, haven't seen they sell engine type.

I've been out of r/c world for more than 2 years now so I don't know the above info are still accurate or not
but you check it out - good luck.

The car is very very small, but the performance is equally as good as advance big electric R/C car. But the price is like buynig a new sony erricson phone. I had so much fun with it but now its broken, the differential gear also worn out.

For those who want to know how much frun this little car can be, watch this cool video clip in youtube right here:

Btw i already check these shop except infront of Gloria, most don't have MINI-Z models or small size R/C car. Oh where the shop you mentioned about the on infront of Gloria Hotel, i didn't see any. Its all new building. Where did they move again? I hope Ian saw this post.
