RAD Hobbies is a small, e-commerce shop based in the Charlotte, NC area. Our inventory changes frequently and we can ship to the lower 48 United States!

We specialize in 80s/90s/2000s (and up) RC vehicles... plus gaming, collectibles, and memorabilia. Welcome to RAD Hobbies & RC! We started this business as hobbyists as it's a hobby we have enjoyed on and off for nearly 35 years. We specialize in vintage RC Cars and Trucks, but also enjoy newer RC vehicles and is why we are also a proud Authorized Redcat Distributor. Outside of our Redcat inventor

y, most items we have for sale are pre-owned and we do almost all selling online. If we do find a good deal on new stock, we will pass it along to you, however, most will fall under the previously mentioned Vintage category. Be sure to visit www.RADHobbiesRC.com to view our current inventory! And we don't only sell... sometimes we'll simply feature photographs taken either by us, or by friends and clients of cool or interesting vehicles from personal collections. Feel free to message us a photo if you'd like to be featured!

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - How about some Panini Black?

It's not much of a secret that I am a Ladd McConkey fan. Probably b/c of watching my dad watch his dad Phil on the NY Giants in the 80s. We found this jumbo patch while traveling for one of the kid's soccer teams and i couldn't resist. The only thing better than a relic is a jumbo relic!

And yes, of course it's for sale... everything is for sale. Want it? Check out our eBay, CollX and WhatNot shops (link in profile), plus on our WhatNot lives. You can also DM us here to save!

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - So, I have been reading about the Monopoly game featuring the Panini Prizm cards, and that they were sold at Dollar Tree for $6-$10 (our store was at $10) and that they had some decent cards.

I'm not a big basketball fan, but i do like the Monopoly cards, so I figured I'd buy a couple boxes to see what the deal was. Each box came with 2 Monopoly Prizm packs (4 cards each pack, 8 cards total). The box says 6 White Cracked Ice cards in every box. I ended up getting those 6 per box (so 12 total), plus 4 orange cards (2 per box) numbered to 1499.

Overall, not too bad. Some decent value in there! Photos highlight the better cards I ripped.

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - Our weekends are filled with soccer about 10 months of the year. The good part is that it takes us to different areas which exposes us to new card shops. Ended up visiting a couple of shops around Goldsboro, NC and grabbed a few numbered and patch cards.

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - More Flawless! 😆

This time, a sealed Sapphire 14/15 Michael Vick. There were running QBs before him, but he changed the game. He was always exciting to watch, and even after he came back from his jail sentence, he was still electric on the field.

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - One of my favorite tight ends to play the game. And honestly, probably one of the top 5 TEs ever.

I also have a soft spot for these Flawless cards, so I grabbed 2. Now you can pick from the Diamond (15/15) bookend, or the Sapphire (8/20). Hey, Diamonds can be a man's best friend too!! 😆

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - Well, it's the first rainy day in months, so why not clear off the desk and list some inventory? It's mostly football, but some baseball got uploaded as well.

We added about a dozen or so cards to our shops today including various parallels, rookies, numbered, and patches. This post only highlights a select few!

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - OK, let's talk baseball...

Vince Coleman was one of the fastest guys in the league in his prime during the 80s and 90s. Anyone who grew up playing RBI Baseball on Nintendo knows this. So you can imagine my excitement when I saw we pulled a numbered /99 on card autograph green card of his.

Anyone who knows me knows I have zero luck ripping packs. It's why it generally stick to singles. But our local shop had 4 of the Easter eggs left and I got a deal on them, so I figured why not? My step-daughter likes to be involved sometimes with the cards, so last night we opened all 4 eggs... and this was the big winner. Not a super huge card obviously, we're not retiring or anything, but I've never pulled an auto, so we were happy to see it!

This card, along with the other parallel and insert cards we pulled will be listed on our eBay, CollX and WhatNot shops (link in profile), plus on our WhatNot lives. You can also DM us here to save!

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - How about a little hockey action?

One of my favorite cards I own at the moment. Numbered /10 with 6 NHL goalies, most of them in the HOF, auto and patches. It is listed in my shops, but I'm not sad if it doesn't sell 😂.

🌟 Card Spotlight 🌟 - 2025 Topps Chrome Football is here!!

I couldn't help myself and I went to my local card shop and paid scalpers prices to get my hands on a couple of Blaster boxes. I've been seeing some people pull great cards from these so figured I'd jump on the hype train. I didn't pull any bangers, but some people did I guess 😂.

Overall it wasn't too bad. If I had paid retail price, I would have been rated a decent rip. I got about 2 dozen or so non-base cards, which is pretty good for retail Blaster boxes (about half are posted here). At scalper prices though, not really worth it. That said I knew what I was doing and paid the hype tax to be able to get some on release day, and it was fun to rip, so not bad overland.

Want to buy any of the good cards? They are all getting uploaded today. Check out our eBay, CollX and WhatNot shops (link in profile), plus on our WhatNot lives. You can also DM us here to save!
