Did these ever hit retail? The only visual evidence that I've ever seen of these ever actually being made is on the cover of the Funskool Detonator box.

I don't think they did the Nitro Viper driving that vehicle either. At least I've never seen it before.

No Nitro Viper either. I suspect the box picture may have been a stock photo sent by Hasbro for Funskool.

I thought the same Pete - Are the stickers on the vehicle the same as the US release?

This is the same image that appears in the 1993 Hasbro Toy Fair catalog, simply re-used by Funskool.

Based on the some of the Funksool vehicles I have, they are of craptastic quality. Paper stickers.

Patrick, thanks for confirming my hunch of the image on the box.
