Ride into the spectacular world of Rough Riders. Filled with daring and adventure, these toys are more than just a way to pass the time; they are ways to use the imagination for epic races, dangerous missions, and treacherous escapades. Each of the vehicles is battery-powered and able to cross all kinds of terrain. From mountains to deserts, there is nothing standing in its way to reach and conquer the entire earth. The small empire of Rough Riders is ideal for any age, from childhood to adulthood. The vast amount of makes and models ensures that everyone has a car or truck to call their own that they adore.
While commonly mistaken for Schaper Stomper 4x4s, these Rough Riders show a level of quality and prestige that the Stompers can only wish for. Many unopened sets of Schaper Stompers can be found in their original packaging, showing that people simply did not want to play with them and only wanted to sell them later on for more money. The Rough Riders, on the other hand, are very hard to find in their original packaging as so many people were eager to play with them, making unforgettable memories, which is a toy’s true purpose. Come with us as we explore the top 10 Rough Riders sold. All prices are found on Worthpoint.
