+The Toyz is a depicted as a hobbyist van that contains [[RC Bandit|remote-controlled cars]] and explosives. The van is identical to the [[Pony]], but has flat side panels with "TOYZ'N THE'HOOD" logos, similar to the [[Panlantic]]. The van is dark blue in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], and white in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]. Performance wise, the van also performs identically to the Pony and Panlactic, being generally mediocre in top speed and acceleration, sluggish with its steering and braking, moderately weighted, and unstable for being top-heavy.
-When found and entered, it starts a mission where you use remote control cars in order to destroy people and property, [[Rampages|rampage]] style, and sometimes an RC checkpoint race is activated instead. You can avoid starting the RC missions by pushing the van forward about two car lengths. The van is dark blue in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], and white in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]].

 == Trivia ==
 * The van's logo name is a pun of [[wp:Boyz n the Hood|Boyz N the Hood]], a 1991 film.
+* The van's bodywork in GTA III noticeably lacks the [[wp:Gouraud shading|Gouraud shading]] necessary to smooth out polygon edges on a vehicle model. As a result, the van's body appears more jagged and blockier than the Pony and Panlantic upon close inspection. This problem does not appear to affect the van's removable parts such as the bumpers, quarter panels and doors.
