  • Supply system can be comprised of a battery pack, said pack comprising rechargeable batteries or not rechargeable batteries.
  • a shaped element that can be coupled with said frame, and supporting the figure realised employing said magnetic and/or ferromagnetic and/or plastic material elements.
  • said shaped element is comprised of transparent plastic material.
  • seats are provided on said frame for housing magnetic elements, corresponding ferromagnetic elements of the figure realised being coupled with said seats, or vice versa, i.e. the frame provides the ferromagnetic elements coupling with magnetic elements of the figure.
  • said shaped element is fixedly coupled with said frame.
  • first figures 1 - 4 it is shown a first embodiment of the structure according to the invention, with the shape and dimensions useful for building different kind of vehicles, such as each kind of car or truck according to the fantasy of the user.
  • structure provides a base frame 10, providing a battery supply group 11, with rechargeable or not rechargeable batteries, and a remote control group 12.
  • front wheels 13', 13" are provided, with the steering group 14, and two rear wheels 15', 15", with the driving group 16.
  • solution could also provide front driving wheels.
  • a plurality of means 17 is provided on the base frame 10, for fixing ferromagnetic base elements or spheres 18, shown in greater detail in figures 3 and 4. positioning of spheres 18 on the frame 10 permits positioning a plurality of magnetic elements or bars (not shown) and other spheres 18 to obtain the desired structure of the vehicle.
