There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Has there been a Can Am Spyder Die-Cast Model made yet?

I think this is the closest anyone has found so far.
I'm eagerly waiting for the real thing.

ldpost: This post goes all the way back to 5/2010. I thought the posters were from days past. Firefly and Musicarcade. There have been die cast and remote control versions available. Long, long ago, I had one of each. I used to chase my cats with the remote control Spyder and they had a blast with that.
I'll leave this one up and thanks ollicat for the catalog info. :yes:

Apparently there were several versions made by Hot Wheels named "Tri & Stop Me" from 2009 to at least 2011.
I have two different versions that the toys appear to be the same, but the information on the cards is slightly different.
Stylistically they look like Rykers with silver frames and undercarriage, with black and white body panels, and a blue windshield.
The lettering on the panel over the engine says "Beach Patrol" and the lettering on the panel behind the driver's seat says "Parking Enforcement".
Here's one for sale on eBay:

Hi, yes I see them in the 2025 Can Am Catalogue. I am in the UK tho, and would like one, but we find it hard to get things like that here.

2025 Can Am Brochure Die Cast Models.
Hi, has anyone bought one of the die-cast models which are described in the new Can Am Brochure? I got a lacklustre response at a UK Dealer when I asked for one, like I was asking for a miracle. I can't seem to find an easy place in the US who will post at a reasonable cost to the UK. Maybe I should order a handful and sell them in UK?!
They are listed at $12. I thought they would be a great Xmas gift, me to me! Ha Ha!

Looking at page 110 of the 2025 brochure, I see two "Bundle" entries with a price of US $290 for each bundle.
One Ryker bundle and one Spyder bundle:
NEW 1:32 Diecast Ryker Bundle
B10780 • One size Mixed color (18) $289.99
Bundle includes:
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker (Pink).
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (White).
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (Blue).
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (Sand).
NEW 1:32 Diecast Spyder Bundle
B10781 • One size Mixed color (18) $289.99
Bundle includes:
· 6 x 1:32 Spyder RT (Silver)
· 6 x 1:32 Spyder RT Limited (Red)
· 4 x 1:32 Spyder F3 (Black)
· 4 x 1:32 Spyder F3-S Special (Green)
· 4 x 1:32 Spyder F3 Limited Special Series (Red)
I was confused at first about how many you'd get in each bundle, but since the 1:32 sized individual toys are US $12, the prices suggest you really are getting 24 toys in each bundle.
Depending on the actual size and weight, I think the US Postal Service Priority Mail International shipping would be less than US $200 to the UK.
I need to contact the parts department at my dealer about something else, so I'll ask about the toys.
And I don't know if they're available in the UK, but Hot Wheels used to sell a couple of Ryker looking toys with the name "TRI & STOP ME".
I bought 2 of them on eBay.
One Ryker bundle and one Spyder bundle:

· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (White).
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (Blue).
· 6 x 1:32 Ryker Rally (Sand).
NEW 1:32 Diecast Spyder Bundle
B10781 • One size Mixed color (18) $289.99
Bundle includes:
· 6 x 1:32 Spyder RT (Silver)
· 6 x 1:32 Spyder RT Limited (Red)
· 4 x 1:32 Spyder F3 (Black)
· 4 x 1:32 Spyder F3-S Special (Green)

I had been waiting to hear from the parts associate at my dealer about my Apple CarPlay Compensation order, as he was waiting for an approval from his manager to let me have the things I selected.
I sent him another email Wednesday morning, asking about the status of the manager approval, and also asked about the two Spyder Diecast Bundles.
I got an email from him, saying I could come and pick up my CarPlay order.
And said he should be able to get the toys or models, and when I come to see him we can talk about what I want to order.
So I'm going up tomorrow morning to pickup my stuff and possibly order some toys.

I just got back from driving up to my dealer, the parts guy recognized me as I walked up to his counter, and before I could say anything he said "Hang on" and disappeared into the back.
He came back with an armload of stuff, and after going through it, it was everything I had requested.
And then we got to the difficult part.
The order total for the things I selected WAS $557.11, so US $57.11 over the $500 Apple Carplay Compensation amount.
He started tapping away on his keyboard, and eventually called someone, as he couldn't figure out how to charge me the $57.11.
They eventually figured out how to charge the amount I owed, but from the side of the conversation I heard, it wasn't tied to my CarPlay order, and was just entered as a "custom order" without any details.
So I got my stuff and paid the overage amount. If anyone cares, the $57.11 was a small overage for the prices of the items I chose, plus Sales Tax.
And then we moved on to the toys, and things went really south.
I had printed out the pages from the 3-Wheel Vehicles Product Spec Book for 2025.
Each page had the name of the book section (APPAREL PLAY AND LICENSING PRODUCTS) and the page numbers, and of course the product numbers.
So his computer didn't have any of the product numbers, and the current copy of the book he had was for 2024. He didn't have the 2025 version.
And I just downloaded the 2024 version and and checked and I don't see any toys.
There is a "PLAY AND LICENSING PRODUCTS" section in the 2024 book, but it only has three items:
Can-Am Park Quick-Dry Blanket
Can-Am Camo Camp Blanket
Can-AM Plaid Fleece Blanket
So he kept the pages I had printed out, and said he'd do more research and let me know.
So no Spyder or Ryker toys at this time.
I did see some signs advertising for an event the dealer is hosting, which included free lunch and door prizes, but when I checked the dates it overlaps another event I've already committed too, so no free lunch for me!
We've got showers (aka, a few sprinkles) here, so no riding today.
It's supposed to be warm and cloudy this weekend, but no rain, so I'll be riding tomorrow!
