Does this fit on the RC/9V tracks, or does it require something different? I have see photos of it, and the three carriages do look like they have the wheel set for the RC/9v tracks. (14 years ago, 18-Jul-10, to lugnet.general)

(...) Woody picks up about 1/2" over a standard minifig, but a good chunk of that is his massive noggin and hat. The leg pieces are three studs long when seated, much like the standard legs are two studs long, so you'll actually get about 5/16" (...) (14 years ago, 17-Jul-10, to lugnet.general, FTX)
