Mattel has had to delay the radio-controlled cybertruck until May 2021, according to Bloomberg. The cybertruck is a radio-controlled cybertruck.
The cars, announced in February, were supposed to ship this month, but have been delayed because of’unforseen production issues’.
The toys are scaled-down versions of the real cybertruck, and come in two models: an 1:64 scale model, which costs $ 20, and an 1:10 scale model that costs $ 400. Both models went out of stock after pre-orders.
The $ 69,900 tri-motor cybertruck is expected to hit the road in late 2021, with the $ 39,900 rear-wheel drive version coming in 2022.
The $ 400 toy version of the truck is supposed to be hobbyist grade and off-roadable. But it does come with a sticker that makes its window look shattered, just like in the demo demo demo.
Tesla is infamous for its delays. The model X shipped a year after was promised. The cheapest model 3 went past its delivery timeframe.
