Monster Jam, Official Grave Digger vs. Earth Shaker Color-Changing Die-Cast Monster Trucks, 1:64 Scale

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy was a hit with my grandson! He is 5 years old and is crazy about sharks, so obviously the megalodon was a huge hit with him. He really enjoyed having the 2 cars so we could play together. The controls were easy for him to pick up. He has had hours of fun with this pair of monster jam trucks! While the product does take a lot of batteries, they are included so we were able to play with the trucks right away. I would definitely recommend this for other monster truck loving kids!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this toy is absolutely awesome was easy to figure out and works really well and does not break easy at all! Kids played with it for hours and hours at a time indoors and outdoors and works great still

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unlike many remote control vehicles weve owned in the past, these trucks have the simplest controls, great for younger kids! The trucks are well-built and sturdy enough to fly off many ramps and hit hard, but keep on truckin! Another bonus, the set came with the batteries! The remote controls never became confused as to which truck it was controlling, and the radio frequency was always strong. Great set of remote control trucks for sure!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.
