Toy Attak Trak shares some styling of the Battle Ram and Sky Sled


Filmation Attak Trak? Big box that just kept the wheel type. lol.

Turns out though one episode did have a more toy accurate version called the Small Trak. Which came out the back of the boxy Trak.


A model kit came out that was based on the concept art of the original toy including things cut from the final toy like the canopy and the mouth.



All these images come from the super ace site Battle Ram Blog and in particular this article on the Attak Trak

I have a soft spot for Filmation Attak Trak as it was pretty much a character in the show. The one thing that irked me about Super7 Re-Action figures, perfect opportunity to do an affordable Filmation Attak Trak. I liked how the Classics Roton came with a cockpit cage so you could go for a more model look if you wanted. Especially since they put out figures based on the pilots for the various models.
