Probably not what you expected but…..
I have been trying for quite a while to get tires for my Fiero Transformer/ radio. Unfortunately, they turned to mush years ago and up until recently I wasn’t able to find tires that would work. So, I found some Saab Scania truck model tires that were in the ballpark as far as size goes.
Anyways, here’s two pics of it.
And yes, the radio works great and fully changes into a standing transformer robot. (you can see his head in the upper middle of the car)
Anyone else have one of these?

Does it have a brand name on it? I'm curious as I've never seen one either.

Hmmm, I would have thought this was a known Fiero toy to most of you.

Well, stick it in a bank vault. I can't even find one online. I can find everything else from that manufacturer but I did find this site from China. It has a nice price tag
