That video features the reproduction toy that is now being sold...

No asking how it is that I know about this.
Before anyone scoffs at the $40 price tag, realizee that some original examples from the 70's are now actually selling for well north of $500.
I had so many great toys when I was a kid. I also tended to take good care of most of my stuff even when young. So between the 1st year Hot Wheels, the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle, the Big Jim Honda Elsinore, the Vertibird helicopter, the Billy Blastoff set and countless others, had I kept them all I likely could have traded them straight up for my CB1100 back when I bought it new, lol. (That's not even counting all of my baseball cards that I gave away to the neighbor kid down the street.)
But for me personally, the coolest toy of them all was the Eldon Top Eliminator Drag Strip that my uncle used to own back when I was a kid. It came complete with a little Christmas tree light setup that would even red light you if you jumped the gun. Awesome.
