The media could not be loaded. This remote control stunt car comes presented in a study colourful cardboard box with pictures of the car on it.Inside is a modern looking car with a wheel on its roof and a small remote control, the car feels very well made with big wheels with chunky tyres.The car takes 3 AA batteries in a screw locked compartment on the base of the car, there is also an on/off switch on the base and when switched on the car comes alive with flashing lights.The small remote takes 2 AA batteries and has a two controls on each side of the on light, backwards and forwards on one side and on the other there is control of the 360 spinning front wheels turning left and right.The remote is easy to operate and you will soon have the car whizzing and flipping all around your room but it is equally at home in the outdoors.This car would make a great present for boys or girls age 6+

Although a kids toy this is going to be a great fun present for my dad this Christmas, It's pretty basic in terms of features but its pure fun without the faff and fuss.This toy will need 5 AA batteries (3 in car and 2 in controller) so bear this in mind when gifting, a built-in rechargeable battery would have been nice hence the 4 stars but to be fair at this price point that's not really an option.The car is nice and bright even in daylight conditions and has some speed to it when it gets going, steering will be the biggest obstacle as it takes some getting use to but overall it's a lot of fun zipping it around the room.

If you've ever looked at the box for an RC car you might see the words 6-way, 8-way or full function.What that means is you can turn the car left/right while going forwards/backwards. Much like a real car does.Rather than on some RC cars, where you can only go left/right or forwards/backwards. But you can't do both at the same time. However this car doesn't do either, because it doesn't have steering like a traditional RC car.Instead, like the video shows, pressing the left/right buttons makes the front wheels to literally "flip" over. Thus causes the car to "kinda" turn left/right. Now I'm guessing you're probably thinking that sounds well strange and yes it is.So that does distract from the cars play value? Yes in very small spaces it makes the car almost unplayable. In large spaces it's a bit better, but mostly it's annoying.Another feature isn't much use either, the wheel on the top back. My guess is that's meant for stunts or to help the car self-right. Either way it doesn't work very well, not unless you are willing to spend hours learning to use this.Overall? Sadly it's not that great, especially given the price. Which is a shame really as the lights do make this stand out and it's quite tough plastic.

Acceleration is fast with this and did bounce of the skirting board a few times and with the top wheel, makes it easy to drive back without having to go pick it up.abeec Mean Streets Remote Control Car for Kids - RC Stunt Car - 2.4GHzArrived in its own box and with plastic screw retainers that can be recycled I suppose better than plastic ties so that is a good thing.Whilst it cannot be classed as really turning to the left\right as the whole front wheels spin in their housing 360 degrees, this makes turning not a simple action. Means you either have to stop and spin the whole wheels a few times to get where you want the car to point, or you have to press and hope it stops where you need or press the opposite to put back down.Think this limits to being a stunt only in what the car can do and not one you can put around a track or ramps in a room, more to use on its own.With the wheels spinning how they do and also the top wheel housing, makes this an ideal starter car for kids to use as they just sit on the chair and can drive\spin\wheelie\bump and it will still keep going and can be driven back in a fashion without leaving the chair. Has caused a few tongues sticking out sideways as they try to work how to get it back to my feet at the settee.With the lights flashing and the ability to keep moving regardless of what wheels are on the ground, this makes it a good toy as they have to think and can see it is their own actions.

An amazing, fun toy. Good quality

An adorable tiny remote-control stunt vehicle with eye-catching lights Five AA batteries are needed for this car and the remote control together! after installing the batteries, when you turn on the vehicle. Additionally, the base has an on/off switch that, when activated, causes the car's lights to flash. The tiny remote uses two AA batteries and features two controls: one for moving back and forth and the other for turning on the light. Perfect for boys or girls aged 6-7 or over

The media could not be loaded. What this car does can be seen in the video I have posted. It goes forward and backward really well, the left and right buttons on the remote control make the front wheels revolve to the left or to the right.I found it difficult to get the car to change direction while the front wheels were doing cartwheels, but I expect practice would find a knack for doing that.I have to say, the toy is very pretty with its lights on, a cheerful-looking thing. It appears quite tough and it can be pursuaded to do a wheelie. I expect the grandson will do a better job driving this when he eventually gets hold of it.

This car and remote control take 5 AA batteries between them! When you switch the car on after fitting the batteries it really does become an absolute blaze of colours. The remote comprises forwards, backwards, and then the front wheels axle rotates like an aircraft propeller either clockwise or anticlockwise according to whether you press the right or left indicating control. That gives some ability to steer but there isn’t actually a means of steering it in the accepted sense of the word. The car goes quite fast and is very smooth.All in all a very lively piece of kit that is relatively easy to control.
