Tyco Mini Typhoon II, radio control

Hello!
I am Ignacio from Argentina. I've had this Tyco model since I was a kid. Unfortunately the remote control is lost.
Is it very difficult to find a replacement? The box says 27mhz.

Where I can buy a control?

Thanks!

Welcome Ignacio!

It's great to see so many Tyco fans from all corners of the globe.

For a Tyco Mini Typhoon II, you can see the remote you need on its product page, and tracking down one of these will be a matter of keeping an eye on eBay or your local equivalent. Thankfully this controller doesn't look unique to the Typhoon, it seems to be a very typical "Tyco is No 1" controller used by many different Tyco and Taiyo cars. Personally I'd take a gamble and buy any Tyco or Taiyo 27Mhz controller that looked the same as this, regardless of what model sticker it has on it. Alternatively you might find a poor condition Mini Typhoon II on eBay with a controller that you could snap up cheaply.

Thanks for answer! Yes, that was the original remote. Is very difficult to find products in Argentina. It's an option buy one used on eBay but the shipping and customs tax are too high.

I found to buy a Tyco Mini Traxx car with remote. I thinks it's an option.
