Hi, sorry for my english, im spanish, but i want to write u because u r looking for a Jet hopper. As i see the model of Jet hopper that was brought to Spain was very different to the Australian one. The one that i have is very strange, i�ve watched videos on youtube and all of them are different to the one i have. I was thinking on changing the engine of it but i dont know if u could be interested on my rc, in that case i would hear offers. I will take pics of my Jet jopper.

I just had a bit of a brain melt and paid $340 for this AS NEW Jet Hopper. JDM version in the Japper box, not the Metro ADM clear fronted box. I'm about to take it for a run on Gosch's Paddock, then it will get cleaned and put in the pool room Ah the memories... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That's sick man. I was almost keen to buy that but eneded up buying a brand new one somewhere else. If I was you I wouldn't use it. If you want a car to scratch and damage pm me I'll sell you one. If you damage that car it will half in value easy. If not more! Anyway I'm always buying guys so let me know if you wanna sell up

Prefer new old stock. Thanks for posting that picture of the Lex fake Jet Hopper. You've probably already come across this if googling, but I have a site about vintage R/C - including a lot of details about the ready to run models like the Jet Hopper... www.rctoymemories.com (http://www.rctoymemories.com) My article about the Tyco Turbo Hopper release http://rctoymemories.com/2012/05/06/...o-hopper-1986/ (http://rctoymemories.com/2012/05/06/tyco-turbo-hopper-1986/) My article about the original Taiyo Jet Hopper release http://rctoymemories.com/2014/06/08/...t-hopper-1986/ (http://rctoymemories.com/2014/06/08/taiyo-jet-hopper-1986/) I also may be able to find more new old stock hoppers in future (I sold one recently) as I do come across a lot of things due to having a site like that No guarantees, but never know. H. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
