This review is from: Roary the Racing Car - Remote Control Roary (Toy)
This toy was bought for my son's 4 birthday. He was able to quickly grasp the remote contol functions so enjoyed it for a while. However my comments echo those of others, as the car is vitually impossible to control with any accuracy. The Steering is slow to respond and makes it difficult to steer round any corners. This means that you have to practice multiple three point turns to get around even a fairly small space. The wheels also have a tendency to spin when you try to move forwards, again making the car hard to control even for an adult.
We have another buggy type remote control car and this soon over took roary in popularity because of its contolability and speed. The toy is though very robust and is bright and very accutate when compared to Roary on the TV.

This review is from: Roary the Racing Car - Remote Control Roary (Toy)
My son and I have had great fun with this toy over the past couple of months, and still do -- best Christmas present I ever bought!
It is speedy, tough, and faithful to the TV character. Admittedly traction is better on carpet than laminate, but I found it very easy to control, and had no problems with the turning circle. No, it won't turn on a dime, so you do have to practice some 3-point turns, but well, there's your educational element: spacial awareness, hand/eye co-ordination, etc. - good practice for when the kids are 17! If responsiveness, or range of remote IR signal decreases, just replace the batteries in the car (not necessarily the remote), and all should be well again. I've also found that sunlight can interfere with the remote IR signal when the car travels into direct sunlight at a distance - just move closer to it. All in all, a superb toy. If I had had one as a kid, I would have been well chuffed. I just wish they would bring out another remote control character, e.g. Maxi, so you could have races!

This review is from: Roary the Racing Car - Remote Control Roary (Toy)
My youngest son loves Roary the Racing Car (the series) and acts out whole dramas, but he had a mixed response when we got this replica. My son loved the look of it and the chunky feel - and for a limited time the phrases uttered when Roary's cap is pressed gave him (if not us) some amusement.
What really leaves us disappointed is the R/C feature. Sure it goes backwards and forwards (slowly), but the wheels hardly turn to steer - I estimate it to have about a fifty foot turning circle, which means that for indoor use its pretty useless. He'd certainly end up off in the mud at Silver Hatch. However, for a four year old, my son is getting pretty good at 20 point turns....
