XPV R.A.D. Robotic Air Defense Red 27 MHz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)And here we are at take off.... the ground performance was great and we even got it off the ground a few times. Followed abrubtly by a quick crash. Not really a problem for the body - the durable foam took it well. The first night out with it we flew/drove it for nearly 30 minutes.
Then the fun ended. No matter how long the battery was recharged, full power (needed for take off) lasts less than 10 seconds. It takes at least 30 feet on a flat surface to get enough lift. That's less than 0.5 seconds of flight if any.
The videos are impressive - but I'm depressed by the performance of this product. Perhaps it was merely a defective battery.

Terrainiac Radio Control Vehicle - 27 MHz (Green) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 8 year old son just got this for his birthday and it is the coolest toy. My husband I think enjoyed it more than my son. It can take a beating! He had it going through corn fields, on hilly land, in the water, down the street, in the sand and it only suffered one little scratch. He runs it until the battery dies every time. Definetly an enjoyed toy. Hopefully it the amusment doesn't wear off. He's looking forward to doing it in the snow.

With its huge rear tire, the Tyco RC Terrainiac is able to tear through dirt, rip through water, and even shred through snow! This high-performance all-terrain radio-controlled vehicle sports an oversized, single rear tire that looks more like a ball with tread. Aside from giving the Terrainiac a futuristic appearance, this approach allowed Tyco engineers to make the car pivot (similar to a human torso) on one controllable joint. Two front rubber tires and two tires in the middle for extra traction make sure that the Terrainiac can hit high speeds. Add in "sphere drive" and now you can turn on a dime and cruise over wet terrain, thanks to the hollow construction that gives the durable plastic tire buoyancy. A spring on top of the car helps absorb more adventurous bumps or jumps.
Because this car has unique motion, with the rear section twisting sideways, it requires a unique controller. You actually twist the controller to steer the vehicle, while using the forward and backward paddles to change direction. Give it a spin on dirt, water, grass, asphalt, or even sand. The Tyco Terrainiac is definitely a multi-terrain titan!

Everything that you need to start tearing it up right out of the box is included: the Terrainiac All-Terrain vehicle; twist-action digital transmitter; one 9v battery; and a turbo rechargeable 9.6v battery pack and charger.

Tekno Best Friend Robot - Sakura Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased for granddaughter age 10. She loves it. She likes to talk to it and especially being able to tell it secrets. She plays the music and dances and sings with it. There has been no problem with the way it works. The only suggestioon I have is that the remote will work two of them at the same time. Her friend has one and they had problems getting them to do different things at the same time as the other remote and her remote worked the other doll also.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Tekno Best Friend Robot - Sakura

Fashioned for friendship and wired for loyalty, Sakura is a cyber friend designed just for girls. The robot may become the most trustworthy friend you will ever have as she keeps your secrets well hidden. If you tell her a secret, she will listen to you and record it. She won't tell anyone unless you use the special key to unlock it again. A groovy, solar-powered keychain is also included for keeping your key.

Sakura can speak thanks to her memory chip, and she wants to share cool facts she knows, tell you a joke, give you a fashion pointer, compliment you, and more. Communicating is a little more interactive when you ask "yes" or "no" questions and hear for Sakura’s response. As you two chat, her eyes and mouth will light up, providing emotional input. When the conversation runs out but you still want to play, Sakura can play five different music tunes and dance.

Sakura comes with a base that offers even more fun play options. You can place her on it and use the remote control to steer her around your room. Or you can watch as she performs ballet (or figure skating) moves to her music. This kind of bonding is only found with the truest of friends.

Radio - controlled Jet Hovercraft Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)PROBLEMS:
(1) Controller does not work from more than 6' away.
(2) Battery connector pops loose with even a low speed bump.
(3) Will not work on even new, clean carpet, grass, sand, snow seem highly unlikely.
(4) You will never use this on water unless you want to watch it drift away once it is more than a few feet out, then SINK when it runs out of battery power (says in the owner's manual that it does not float).
SUMMARY: This product is a total waste of money.

XPV Super Terranator Orange 27 MHz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had to test two of these cars. The first one was dead off the shelf, but looked like it was returned to the factory and just repackaged.
The second car wasn't much better. Out of the box there was white paint smudges all over the chassis of the car. There are two decorative fins near the rear of the car that don't seem to serve any purpose other than to fall off and infuriate the user.
To charge the car you need to unscrew the back panel and hook up the ac adapter to the hidden plug. On BOTH of the cars the plug's metal contacts were bent out of alignment and required careful repositioning to charge either of them.
After following the charging instructions the first car didn't work at all and was promptly returned. The second car ran for 2 minutes and then the battery was drained so much that all the tires would do is vibrate.
I'm returning the second one and taking my money to a different car.

XPV stands for Xtreme Performance vehicle and this radio controlled car is certainly living up to its name. Bringing the pain to all terrain, the Super Terranator is a remote control vehicle for any season, as it performs equally over land, water, mud, and snow. It also has some impressive numbers: two engines, 4-wheel drive, 12 volts of juice, up to 15mph, and working range of 150 feet.

The ability to conquer almost any terrain, means the Terranator is actually five vehicles in one. With huge, knobby tires and a unique water skimming hull, this RC is a street car, dragster, snowmobile, 4x4, and swamp buggy combined into one awesome vehicle. The bold orange and black color and a design influenced by real stealth planes give the car an appearance appropriately matching its fierce capabilities. The XPV Super Terranator comes ready to play with a rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery, a full function two-channel controller, and one 9v battery for the controller.

Hello Kitty FRS Family Radio Service Communicators Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had purchased theBarbie Chat-with-Me Jelly Talkies Set of 2 - Pink for my girls for Christmas. The things had NO range and were clumsy to use and to top it all off they took expensive watch batteries. After finding these Barbie's going back.
These have a great range good clarity and although small in size are easy to use for my 4 & 6 year olds. And for added fun my husbands radios that we take on camping trips can be set to the same channels now its a 4 way conversation.
I recommend these to any parent looking for a walkie talkie type toy. Have fun with them, I know we will!

Discovery Exclusive Radio Control Flytech ™ Dragonfly Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am deployed to Iraq right now and I was looking for something to mess around with in our hanger. I atomatically ordered two knowing I would break one and I could salvage parts without waiting forever. The first one's tail prop would ot trim out and just spun out of control and crashed. The second one charged up and flew great right outta the box. After messing with the trim a bit and mastering the controls It is surprisingly controlable. I've crashed the thing into the concrete and the metal hanger walls about 100 times and haven'tbroke anything yet. Make sure you have plenty of room to practice so yours stays as durable as mine has.

H2go Hydrogen Powered Radio Control Car Standard Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This car is awesome!
It has all the aspects of a great piece of machinery.
I would highly recommend this to a friend.
I have nothing bad to say about this car. I got it at TRU, the Solar model but the two are the same basically.
I would only say that Corgi or Popco or Colani needs to change the way the wheels work because hair is easily spun and is hard to get out. Vacuum before you play!
Other than that this is great!
Get one, have fun, learn!

Mattel Triclops Radio Control Vehicle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for my 7 yr old son for Christmas. He had it at the top of his list, I couldn't resist after the price dropped significantly on Amazon. My son was thrilled with this toy, it came with nearly all needed to run it and recharge. The toy is very well built, fires discs and spins at a VERY VERY fast speed which my kids think is awesome. This is one of the better R/C toys out there that we have had experience with. Highly recommend!

With omni-directional movement, pincher claws, laser sighting, and a rapid-fire disc shooter, the Tri-Clops Radio Control Mutant is just about the coolest radio-controlled vehicle out there. Half robot and half mutant, this hybrid, three-wheeled vehicle transforms between two modes, blending a modern robot look with monstrous details. Recommended for ages 8 and up, the Tri-Clops lets you show off its amazing moves to friends using a sweet gamer-style controller. Fun, Fast Vehicle Transforms, Shoot Discs with Accuracy The Tri-Clops quickly transforms between its two modes with the press of a button. In mutant speed mode, the vehicle is at its fastest and most protected. With the defense visor down, the Tri-Clops holds up to lots of bumps as it speeds across hard, solid surfaces. This mode also allows you to load up to eight discs in both of the two disc magazines. Armed with laser-like red beam that lines up with your target from a distance of eight feet, this Radio Control Mutant lets you shoot discs in mutant attack mode. With the visor up, this creature reveals a vicious face with crab-like pinchers, teeth, and two slots for fast and furious disc shooting. In this mode the Tri-Clops has more impressive moves to show off. Thanks to the speed and directional control on the transmitter, the vehicle not only moves in any direction, but also features a sideways slide, a 180-degree reverse attack, and a 360-degree wild slide. The latter two features have their own buttons on the remote control, along with a trigger for each disc magazine. The Ultimate Test Drive We loved the speed, shooting accuracy, and killer controls and movement, the Tri-Clops Radio Control Mutant displays. If you've got plenty of solid and flat driving space -- in your house or driveway -- you'll have hours of fun playing with creature too. Made with durable plastic, this toy holds up to a ton of collisions. The only drawback is that the 16 hard discs shoot so well that it'd be easy to lose half of them. Once out of the box, the Tri-Clops is ready to roll simply by inserting the Tyco 9.6-volt battery pack into the vehicle and the 9-volt battery into the remote. The battery pack comes with a charger that plugs into any outlet for full and easy recharging in four hours, and the vehicle features an LED that blinks in a steady pattern when the battery is running low. And a word of warning: please, don't shoot at people or animals from a close range; this toy is more powerful than you'd think.What's in the Box Radio-controlled vehicle, remote control, 16 discs, 9.6-volt battery pack and charger, and 9-volt battery.
