 Super Fun Toy!Jun 21, 2008
What a great idea to have an outdoor r/c for little kids that can go thru anything! My 4 year old loves it and figured out the controls in about 5 seconds. The mighty r/c goes fast and only struggles a little in the grass. It does burn thru the batteries kinda fast, but only in the car, not the remote. A great toy!
My 3 Year Old LOVES This!Jun 13, 2008
Now, we have not tested this on water yet. It was purchased so that we can play with it on the dock of our lake house and then play with it in the water too, but so far we've just used it on land. I must say it's a total hit!! My daughter LOVES it. The first time it went under the cars she freaked out...she thought she'd lost it. It has proved to be quite the educational toy...she's learned (1) the eye-hand coordination required to back it up and go forward until she gets it out of the "stuck" spot and (2) patience and perseverance in achieving the previously mentioned task. She has so much fun with this toy and her baby brother loves watching and chasing after it. This is actually something that Daddy can get involved in playing too (I need to get one for him to, so they don't fight over turns anymore). I highly recommend it!!

I ordered this as a Christmas gift... for my husband and 2 sons (age 2 and 3). I was hoping it would work in the pool, but it just kind of "lists" to one side and spins the tires in the water. So it wasn't destroyed in the pool, but it wasn't exactly functional either.
Maybe it's just me, but I have trouble mastering the controls as an adult. My husband has other RC cars and said it was a little less intuitive than some. All of us but the 2 yr old can make it work, but it could be easier to control. My 3 yr old has a bit of trouble because the controller is too big for his hands. The controller is thick and chunky... about the size of an xbox360 controller but with fewer buttons.
A week after Christmas, we're already replacing batteries. It hasn't been played with THAT much, so I'm wondering if it is a bit of a battery hog.
Favorite game for the kids (and the cat) is "chase" followed by "hide and seek." Guess I'd better get good at the controls!
Remote 4x4 truckJan 02, 2008
We bought this for my son who is 4 and never had a remote truck before. We weren't sure if he would be too old for this one, but we were wrong. Its perfect for his age! Easy to control and very durable. Even my 1 year likes to push buttons and drag it around. It seems to hold up to the banging around. Batteries die quickly it only uses 'AA" but works out in the dirt too.

This was a present for our 4 1/2 year old grandson. He loved it and was able to manipulate it almost immediately. And, it was great thru water. It is too early to know how it will hold up but after 4 days of constant play it is doing well.
