  • I never seen this in the stores back in 2004-2005. What a cool toy! Do you know how much it originally cost or where it was sold? If you had one, I can imagine that you played with it a lot! What a great toy! For more AcceleRacers, check out my playlist:

    I used to have one of these when I was a kid! I got it for my 3-5th birthday (unsure) but i remember it was 25-50 US dollars. I played the HECK out of it. I used to get the cars and whenever I used to watch the movies, i would reenact the cars as the movie goes on and I used the sweeper during the 2nd-4th movies. I also remember making crazy tracks and using the sweeper to "spit" out the drones to control the acceleracers' cars to get sucked into the sweeper. I still have mines in the garage somewhere.

      RaceGrooves My favorite episode of Accele Racers is ep.4, The ultimate race. It's when they (heros) steel a sweeper, and expect to save Mark Wild. Results are saved Wild( I watched all 4 ep.).

    To answer some of your questions, I remembering getting mine back when I was a kid at Target. My pops bought it for me for about $29.99 and I still have it! It's pretty dusty though next to all my hyperpods and my case of acceleracers. Lol I remember playing with this thing all over the living room, re-acting some of the scenes from the movie! This indeed was one of the greatest toys I had as a kid!

    I got this one for my fourth birthday because it fell right after a major hip surgery! Now I can't find it!!!! I loved how the designers knew the cars were supposed to go in backwards so had the circle thing to gyrate them around inside so they could come in and out facing the same way! Awesome!

  • @racegrooves

    @Doomz4U Yes, I bought both series for my son. I have watched all of the episodes once but my son watched them several times.

    I had a cargo truck that was 2 levels with a ramp that also could fit cars in the cab of the truck. Man, I wish I saw these when I grew up. I only saw Highway 35 and feel like discovering Acceleracers is like finding a lost part of my childhood that I never got to experience.

  • @ToaTenitrus
    @ToaTenitrus 7 років тому +7

    I remember seeing this in Target back in either 2005 or 2006. I was never able to get my hands on it, and it will probably be a while before I am able to get it because of how much it goes for online nowadays. If I ever am able to get it I am definitely going to hook up my green Hot Wheels track to it and make some sort of track layout with it.

    My neighbor gave to me when i was little because her son was getting older so he didn't need it. I played with it so much and still have it. The sweeper has heaps of play value.

    Whether you're aware of this now or not, the Sweeper in the movies (First revealed in the 2nd movie "The Speed of Silence") was meant to be a large Drone vehicle that could suck up multiple cars on the track. When inside, the cars would be disassembled, and the drivers would be put into small tubes near the rear of the Sweeper, with metal bars above them. There were also small mechanic Droids that would sabotage the cars, and in the 3rd and 4th movies, they were known to release Biker Droids.

    I didn't get one because at the time the movies were around I was about 5 or 6 something like that and took everything seriously so I thought it would disassemble my cars cause in the movies they disassemble the car then grab the driver and I thought the toy would do the same thing and now I regret that

  • @racegrooves
    @racegrooves  12 років тому +2

    Even if you don't have the originals, it's great that they are still using the tools so we can get more colors =) As for the booster wheel looking like Mid-Air Madness, yes, same design.

    I remember seeing this in Target back in '05 but I passed it up for the Acceledrome track set. I was finally able to get myself one last year, and it is fantastic!
    You did miss a small feature in your review though. The Sweeper has four little parking spaces under the in-going ramp and the turntable (you can see them in the video at 2:07 and 5:49 respectively).

  • @AMemeFrom06
    @AMemeFrom06 10 років тому

    I don't remember how much it was, but I do believe I found it at a local supermarket when I was little! I religiously watched the show, and when this came out, I saved long and hard (did chores around the house; it was a good motivator =P). I had a ton of fun with it, and still have it in working order! Great place to store cars and occasionally shoot 'em out onto a track! Loved the video! Thanks and keep it up!

  • @racegrooves
    @racegrooves  12 років тому

    Yes! Power Rage was one of the first Mystery Cars when they were in the black blisters. Speed Racer 6:45 wasn't a mainline car. It was a separate product for the movie. They had track sets and all sorts of stuff.

    I have been buying them from eBay. Many of the models are affordable. There were some that were very hard to find and those will not be cheap anywhere. Reverb, Chicane, Spectyte are still sell anywhere from $40 to $50 each.

    I always asked my mom for the Sweeper when acceleracers was a thing. I still remember going to the store and showing it to her and why i wanted it so much. She kept telling me that "maybe" for christmas but in the end i never got it. I didn't get any Acceleracers car either. The sold like for 1 dollar and my parents never wanted to buy one for me :c

    cool wall tracks bro and the Power Rage recolor is SICK! I wish I've ever seen it before. anyway, i found my dronesweep at wallyworld as they were starting to phase out the cars. it, along with the rest of my accelercars, they are the only hotwheel things i've decided to keep (everything crams nicely in the sweeper :-) ) I've never really played with it because I've nicked enough oh my old HW stuff in the past and i'd like to keep what I was able to get reasonably nice + 4 C batteries, really? + loud. So thank you a lot for showing how it is really ment to be played with. never knew the turn table worked when powered on.
