BigTrak Returns As BigTrak Jr

Iconic 80’s Programmable 6-Wheeler Gets Reinvented for 2010

If you’re ‘of a certain age’ then, like me, the very mention of the name BigTrak will conjure a particularly fond trip down memory lane and now, if you would like to relive inputting commands such as right 90, forward 5, fire laser you’ll be pleased to know that BigTrak is set to make a comeback in the guise of BigTrak Jr.


Set to become available later this year, though no specific release date has been confirmed as yet, BigTrak Jr – which seemingly comes in at around half the size of the original BigTrak, as pictured below – will be capable of storing up to 32 programs and it’ll even see new accessories such as a rocket launcher attachment and a digital camera though, again, details concerning these attachments is pretty sparse right now (so we are unable to offer any indication as to the resolution of the camera, etc).

BigTrak Jr is expected to hit retail this Summer and will carry a price tag of some $40 (circa £30 in the UK).
