Tyco Super Cliff Hangers was a electric racing slot car set manufactured by Tyco, and released into the US, UK, and other markets worldwide in 1983.

There are several sequels to this set as follows:
- 1984 Tyco Super Cliff Hangers with Nite Glow
- 1994 Tyco Super Cliff Hangers (re-release)
- Ultra Cliff Hangers
- Zero Gravity Cliff Hangers
Features and Vehicles
As an early 80s set there isn't anything in the way of set decoration, however the track itself is legendary, making this a very worthwhile kit even today, with multiple "gravity defying" pieces comprising a vertical wall climb, an upside down track section, and a loop.

This version of the set comes with Silver/Black and White/Red Corvette Magnum 440 type slot cars.

Compatibility
Given this is one of the first 'modern age' sets from Tyco, with the old Magnum 440 system (not 440x2, just 440), it's important to note that the cars are supposed to be 40% slower than the Magnum 440x2. However that's not a problem, since
Track and Layout
With 22 feet of racing track (almost 7 meters!), this is one HUGE set, almost double its 1994 'successor' which it puts to shame. Easily one of the best designed tracks released by Tyco, with a nice long straight, loop, inverted areas, and that cliff hanger wall climb. It makes me want to race it now just thinking about it!



TV Commercial
Check out the awesome TV Commercial that aired in 1983. I guess Star Wars fever was still going, so somehow they managed to introduce it like the next Alien movie or something haha. This has been put through an AI algorithm to try and clean up the messy footage after being stored on magnetic VHS tape for 40+ years. While far from perfect, it's better the the original.
Availability and Collectability
Availability for all Cliff Hangers sets is good, and this continues with Super Cliff Hangers. They sold a lot of these back in the day, so you won't run out of options anytime soon.
