Starrior-thing???
This looks like an enlarged knockoff of a Starrior (Runabout), but is battery operated, and also has a weird “plane” mode. Any info on this thing would be sweet, as I know nothing.

I’m not sure what it is either.

You have one of these too?? I got mine from someone off the Zoiders list many moons ago, who also had no idea what it was or where it came from. So, welcome to the brotherhood of the baffled.

If I’m right it was sold at Radio Shack in 1985 as the “Motorized Galactic Walker”. Compare the one pictured in this Radio Shack ad from December 1st, 1985 to the photos you have here and I’d say the mold details match exactly. But of course I can’t be 100 percent sure because I have never seen a Motorized Galactic Walker in person.
