Back when capt power was hot, I made a simple captain power skybike, simply because I could never find one in the stores. This, like back then, is made from cardboard. the only difference is this has a solid core of foamboard strips. This I left unpainted to show basic details, like the three circular discs(which are the tops of small vending machines shells) and the basic shape. I always wondered how the company could market the relatively complicated interactive toys and not market a simple nonworking accessory like this.

Yes, but they were a hit at the time. Now, they're a history lesson in marketing.

Nice! This goes to show all of us that ultimately its the imagination and creativity behind the molded plastic , cut cardboard and styrene that motivates us and contents us. Little vehicles like that deserve to be shown off if for no other reason than inspiration
