 "Puppet Show Princesses!" 2010-01-27
By Emmi
We have used this as a fort, a tent, and an awesome hiding place! Now, we are using it as a puppet show. The pieces are strung across the room (like curtains) and we are going behind them and holding puppet shows! It has been fun and there are so many more uses I'm sure we'll come up with! Enjoy!

 "My boys (6 & 7) LOVED this toy!" 2009-09-01
By Mrs.StoneP (Everywhere I am is where I need to be! TX, etc.)
We just got the little hopper yesterday evening. Assembly was quick and painless. He wouldn't put on a show in the low evening sunlight, but preformed very well at 2:30 this afternoon. Also whirled when placed close under our brighter house lights. Not sure about durablity yet, although it's rather small, and the wirey pieces are thin. I'm sure if cared for, it will last alright. Might not last so long in the hands of younger kids. My boys were glad to have a toy that was powered by the sun :o) It piqued their interest in pv, thus relatively educational. It was fun watch it dance!!!

I would recommend this kit. It's easy to put it together, it works and it's educational. We used a flashlight to get the bug jittering.

 "This toy is crap!" 2010-03-22
By Ian's Mom (White Oak, PA United States)
I bought this as a birthday present for my 1-year old daughter. Although it came with batteries, I had to replace them right away. I thought, oh, maybe it was a demo or got played with in a store, no big deal. The next day, the batteries were dead AGAIN. The toy wouldn't even turn on. Replaced the batteries TWICE more (with brand-new batteries every time) before giving up entirely. Worse, Amazon will only give me a partial refund because I bought it a month before my daughter's birthday (I like to be prepared!), so it was past the return date. And the manufacturer is in CANADA, and I don't want to pay outrageous shipping just to return a broken toy. If my experience is any indication, this product is cheap and poorly made. Such a shame - it's really a great concept.

 "misleading packaging" 2009-01-13
By G. Sinaniz (San Diego)
I asked for this for my daughter for Christmas. Based on the fact that I thought that it spoke the three labled languages on the keyboard, ( English French and Spanish)I am very disapointed. Look closely at the keyboard and there are three stickers that the manual shows as tempoary, they say "English, French and Spanish" Yet I havent been able to figure out what it refers to, I don't hear any kind of spoken language from the toy and the booklet dosen't say anything. I guess the company is counting on the fact that I was in the store with my screaming kids, trying to rush and find something good. You see music, language, building-what a great toy. Then you play with it and see its limits and are disapointed. The music is ok and its neat that you can change the sound/ song ect. with the different blocks. I am sure there are more toys out there that play better music/ more variety.

If you still like it, don't pay the 30/40 dollars. I saw it at Toys r us right before christmas for $10.

I bought this toy for my seven year old and we built it together. At first, it didn't work and I thought it was defective. However, after some tweaking by my husband, it now works perfectly. You have to line things up perfectly or nothing happens.

This is a tiny cute car, it's easy to assemble and it's fun to run.

It needs direct sun to run. It's better to buy at least 2 to make a contest.

Their size is about that of a HotWheel(R) car.

 "Good learning experience" 2010-03-09
By J. Helgason
This product was a lot of fun to put together. That's the point: to put together. Once it is put together it's not much fun. It's slow and doesn't drive straight. There is a steering adjustment, but it doesn't help much. No matter what it veers off to the right. Also, it runs on 4 AA batteries that completely drain after 30 minutes.



One problem that I had is that it is very picky with batteries. It ran with 4 cheap off-brand TV remote control alkaline batteries, but with 4 brand new Duracell alkalines, it wouldn't even run. I thought maybe the batteries were defective, but they were able to run in another electronic device just fine. Also, you can't use rechargeable batteries in the car because you need the proper 1.5v per battery to correctly operate the RF receiver (6v) whereas rechargeable NiMh batteries only output 1.2v each or 4.8v total.



Also, I had to break out the soldering iron to connect the wires. This kit wants you to wrap the wires around each other and stuff them inside non-shrink tubing. That doesn't work very well. Best bet is to solder them.



All in all, it was a decent fun evening putting the car together. It won't last long and it is SMALL. I wouldn't buy it again.

 ":( Car kit w/ r/c" 2010-02-11
By Marilyn Einspanier
I got this for my 10 year old for Christmas.

We tried to put it together. The motor didn't fit in where it was supposed to fit.

The reviews indicated that this was pretty straight forward. That was not our experience. We gave up on it when we couldn't get the motor into where it was supposed to go.



I felt it was an expensive mistake.



I didn't have time to argue with the company about whether or not they would take it back, so I didn't pursue that route.

 "more work than anticipated" 2010-01-29
By boomer sooner (OKC)
my husband and i bought this for our nephew for christmas. it seemed like such a great idea at the time but it was definitely more than we had anticipated. my husband is great at putting things together but he threw in the towel. they never finished putting it together and he even went out and purchased another radio remote control car for him in place of this one. this may be more appropriate for hobby enthusiasts than children.

 "Never worked" 2010-01-19
By Jimmy (Nor Cal)
I got this to build with my son. It comes with a notice in the box to contact the manufacturer if you are missing parts or if they don't work. Must happen often?



Of course once assembled the car did not work. I called the number and they said that the main board was probably bad, so they would send me a new one. 2 weeks later it arrived, and guess what, it was defective too. So I am giving up on this toy and sending it back to Amazon.



Cheap parts that don't always work, not worth $30.

Not worth buying, spend a little extra on a real RC car you can put together because this one probably won't work.
