Description[]
The Juice Machine was a gasoline pump-shaped charging device used to recharge Sizzlers models for use in 90 seconds, and was released many times by itself and in various track sets of different lines. All versions of this accessory required four "D"-sized alkaline batteries for operation.
In 2007, the Juice Machine was retooled and rereleased as a Target exclusive with minor changes. This version of the Juice Machine was later reused in Mattel's Cars 2 Charge-Ups series from 2011, a lineup of similar battery-powered motorized vehicles that use the same track system as the Sizzlers series.
