Hot Wheels Monster Jam Pop-Up Crazy Crashers Grave Digger Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Hot Wheels Grave Digger Monster Truck is built for crashing. When the front wheels are bumped, the roof pops open and out pops a skull. There are lights and crashing sounds and the skull announces the Grave Digger name in a "creepy" sounding voice. Then you push on the roof pieces (sticker on top says "push here") and the skull pops back in place and the roof pieces fit back together for more crashing action.
I ordered this online, and if I'd seen it in the store, I may have dismissed it as being too cheaply put together. While the pieces are easy to pop back in place, they just seem a little flimsy to me. But, having said that... my 4 year old LOVES this toy. It has taken quite a few crashes so far, and all still seems to be working well. My son loves Monster Trucks; and Grave Digger is his favorite. If you can't tell from the pictures online, this truck is larger than standard hot wheels cars. It is maybe 8" long and 6" tall (approximate).
Overall, I'm pleased with this toy. I hope it stands up to my crash happy son. But for the under $20 price tag, this toy has been a good find.

Hot Wheels Criss Cross Crash Track Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's not that easy to get four cars going around the track. The track is small and the cars go whipping by quickly. The motors launch the cars pretty fast so that they get around the steep banked curves (or they fall off). The four 'D' batteries must be in top notch condition as each car will decrease the motor speed slightly as the car travels through the launcher housing. The motors must recover their speed before the next car arrives or else it won't launch it fast enough and the car will fall off the curve. Given the variables at play: batteries, car quality, track placement wobbliness, user's ability to time it just right, I found this toy somewhat frustrating. When I tried only two or three cars, they'd traverse the track just fine, go for awhile, and eventually one or all would fall off the track, but seldom crash. The more cars, the higher the likelihood of a crash, but getting more cars on the track is a pain (maybe fun for some). Overall, I don't like this Hot Wheels set and wouldn't recommend it. If the product had only been $20, I'd have given this 3 stars, but at $40 it is not worth it. One last minor gripe is that the battery housing is too tight (it's harder than it needs to be to insert/remove the 'D' cells) and the cheap battery cover barely stays in it's hinges.

Hot Wheels Trick Tracks Cyborg Blaster Starter Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What ~should~ be a surefire hit sadly turns out to be a mega-missile miss-fire!
For starters, the plastic robots' footholds are pretty unstable, so any slight
unintended jolt will knock them over before you even start your Hot Wheels engines.
While the two included lipstick-sized rubber-tipped mega-missiles look and feel
like fire-power fun and will launch automatically when inserted into the Cyborg Blaster's
arm-hand-cannon, it is difficult to figure out how to get it to fire once you twist
the mechanism back by the Cyborg's hips.
Also not right is the car-driven reflex-pot mechanism that's supposed to trigger the action;
in this set, it doesn't really hit off.
Furtherless, the slot launcher of the smaller target droid doesn't get off either, seemingly stuck in its to-launch position.
(Will it take a kid's finger off when it does eject? Don't take a chance.)
So FAIL-FAIL on both ends of this misguided Rube Goldberg cyborging nightmare.
In the end, you're left to cannibalize parts, hardly worth the price of admission (of this cyborgian failure).
If Uncle Owen bought this Cyborg Blaster set from Jawas, he would surely be upset
and say, "Hey, what are you trying to pull on us?!"
Why did Hot Wheels put this particular half-baked contraption on the market for the consumer to be disappointed by?
They should know better and do better for their fan base.
Don't trust this Cyborg Blaster caster to work properly! Don't spend any money on it!
