    Happiness

    This product brought so much joy to my neighbours son, he is absolutely loving his monster jam trucks and I see him out there playing all day. The power works great and love that this came with batteries. High quality product.

    Only ok

    My son is 6, he’s never really been into RC cars, but he found these to be fun. He said that he likes that they could go up small ramps, but wishes they could go up bigger ones. Also the batteries die incredibly quickly which he found to be quite annoying. He said it’s ok fun, but not the most fun he’s ever had.
    Side note, we’ve had it a week, he’s played with it twice and hasn’t looked at it since. Mostly because the batteries are dead and when I asked if he wanted fresh ones, he said no, it was ok

    Monster Jam Remote Control Trucks (Twin Pack)

    My kids were super excited to receive this monster jam remote control set. As a parent of 2 kids I was also happy that it came with 2 sets of trucks so no fighting over the new toy :) My kids are 5 and 2 and this this was super easy for them to operate. Unlike other remote control cars we've had these ones were rugged and the controller was small so great for little hands to use. The buttons to go back and forth and turn were very easy that even my 2 year old picked it up in no time. I would have given this 5 stars had it worked better on asphalt. Inside the trucks went really quick and had no issue but outside they were slower and sometimes couldn't handle the bumps on the road very well. Overall these are very fun to use and worth a the purchase. Well done SpinMaster!!

    Fun, durable remote control vehicles for children

    I wasn't sure what to expect with these remote control trucks. My 7-year-old son has been given remote control vehicles as gifts in the past and he has never taken to any of them. In fact, he had a larger Grave Digger remote control truck a couple years ago. He played with it once, found it difficult to drive, and never went back to it. I was pleasantly surprised when we opened the Racing Rivals box that this Grave Digger was a more reasonable size. My son commented on it too; he liked that he could pick it up with one hand instead of requiring both hands. We popped in the batteries and he immediately started zipping it around the house. His 4-year-old sister couldn't let him have all the fun and quickly joined in with Megalodon. They swapped back and forth a few times. My son ultimately decided he liked Megalodon the best "because it drives better". I tried them both and I agree, Megalodon is more nimble. Grave Digger feels more clunky and not as responsive. My daughter is too young to notice or care about these things and quite proudly took ownership of "Digger". These have now become outside toys as they are more fun with lots of room to drive. The kids take them out for 20-30min almost every sunny day. They seem durable and the original batteries are still in them. I think older and/or more competitive kids might find Grave Digger a bit frustrating, but, for my two that are just driving them down the sidewalk for fun, they are more than good enough. The only thing I question is the inclusion of the cardboard "tracks". They seem pointless and wasteful. As my son pointed out, they are far too narrow to be real tracks. Even if they're set up more as barriers, both vehicles can easy drive over them. Overall, these are great remote control trucks for younger children.

    Lots of happiness over-here!

    The children really enjoyed playing with the Monster Jam, Official Grave Digger Vs. Megalodon Racing Rivals Remote Control Trucks, the remote control are easy to use, they played for hours at home and even decided to take the trucks to the park! As a parent I can tell you that this toy made them very happy and it is a nice looking pair of trucks. They also seem to be very strong toys, not easy to break, just from watching all the bumps they went through lol, and they are still pretty as when we first opened the package. #gotitfree #FamilyRatedClub

    Fun and easy to use

    My son was super excited to get these monster jam remote control trucks! He really enjoyed the ease of the controls and that the package came with two trucks so he could race his dad or friend. He wasn't interested in the racetrack but was otherwise happy. He said he wished the trucks went faster but still had lots of enjoyment from them. There was lots of tedious packaging so if you have an impatient child, I'd suggest unpacking them before showing the child. The description says you can roll them right out of the box but this isn't the case. The batteries are not installed and that was a bit time consuming by the time they were unpacked and installed. I do like that they came with batteries, however! Overall a fun toy for kids and it's awesome the package comes with 2, making it a lot more fun!

    Fun for Boys and Dads

    Well...my 7 year old has not put these down since he opened the box. Him and my husband have been crashing them together, building ramps and making them flip off ledges every time they play with them. I will admit the battery compartment were childproof for me...took us awhile to get them open. I think if they could improve on it, even if it meant paying a bit more, put a rechargeable battery internal and charge with a usb port cable. Otherwise lots of fun!!!

    Fun Little Racers!

    I received this product for free in exchange for an honest review. My nephew was so excited to see these two monster trucks! He loves monster trucks and has been constantly playing with them and eagerly wanting everyone to race him. These two trucks are powerful and pretty fast, but not so much to damage any furniture which is a huge plus for my sister. My nephew didn’t care much about the racetrack pieces and only used the finish line piece, but it’s a cool addition for other kids. It’s super fun for both adults and kids, as the competition always gets heated as everyone wants to win! The only thing is that these trucks run better on flat surfaces and can’t withstand too many hills and cliffs outdoors. Other than that, highly recommended! #gotitfree #FamilyRatedClub

    Kids had fun

    My kids had alot of fun playing with the monster trucks. They are really into sharks so they loved the one that was a shark. They are decent quality for younger kids.
