Roller coaster models?

[noyzz]

Ok I have a question? When I was a kid they use to make a roller coaster model that you would build yourself and would have marbles as the train. I think the smallest kit had 2 layouts that you could do. A loop or twisty track. The lift hill look like a spiral staircase that was motorized.

 

Ok so the question is, does anyone know where I can find them or even if they still exsist?

I think I might have what you're talking about. It's a set of plastic sticks and joints (almost like tinker toys, but plastic and shiny) which you attach track spines to the supports and run two plastic tubes through the track spines...

I think I have seen those also, but I still think nothing beats Coasterdynamix, even if it is expensive, it's well worth the price:

I think I still have my Space Warp somewhere in storage. Surprised you can still buy em:

I had one, but my dad came into my room one day when I wasn't home... didn't see it, stepped on it, got angry, and kicked it. The metal bars were all bent. I was never able to finish it because of that. Oh well... I may have to buy a new one

Spacewarp. Crack with a track. I got my first kit in 1986, and built and built and built and built.... Needless to say it was the most amazing and unique toy that a coaster enthusiast could ever want as a kid. (well, until Coaster Dynamix and K'nex came along, of course) but for me there was nothing better to keep me going for years. Tragically my collection was lost in a fire several years ago- but I now know that I'll be feeding the Japanese economy again....
